A satsang on a raised stage with red curtains behind. A seated man in saffron-orange robes, a rust-orange turban and layered rudraksha malas sits on a red-cushioned silver throne, palms pressed together at chest level. The throne is framed by a gold arch decorated with multicoloured garlands and holds an elaborately adorned deity murti with crown and jewellery. To the left, a gold-coloured deity figure stands with hands folded, and a golden deity murti in a gold arch with a trident and crescent ornament stands on a blue cloth. A young attendant in orange robes with white markings stands at the left edge. A microphone stand is at right, and a small oil lamp sits on a silver stand in front of the throne.
