A photograph of a gilded ceremonial stage with ornate golden carvings and a golden lion sculpture at left. A woman in a rust-orange sari with a long braid and a microphone speaks on the left, seated in a red-cushioned gold throne. Beside her a woman in a brown sari and layered beaded necklaces sits with a vertical tilak on her forehead. On the right a bare-chested man with long swept-back hair, rudraksha malas, ceremonial gold necklaces and white tripundra markings on his forehead and body sits eyes closed in orange cloth, with another orange-clad attendant behind him. A seated woman in red faces the stage in the foreground. The scene suggests a satsang discourse. Swamiji (probable): the bare-chested man with long hair, rudraksha malas, gold necklaces and orange cloth on the central throne.
