A photograph of a satsang on a stage before a large backdrop showing a temple facade with a deity murti pair in pink and white garments garlanded with flowers. A figure in saffron-orange robes with a rudraksha mala sits in meditation on a gold-carved throne, hands folded, eyes closed. Seated on the floor before him are devotees: women in white saris with yellow borders and yellow shawls, a woman in a maroon sari, and a bald man in white dhoti with gold border. Brass plates and flower offerings lie on the carpet, and decorative banners in red, green and yellow hang at the top corners.
