A large seated audience fills a hall during a satsang or discourse. In the right foreground, a man with long swept-back hair and an orange-brown robe sits on an ornate gold-and-brown throne holding a tall gold staff, appearing to be the Swamiji (probable) given his long hair, orange clothing and throne presentation. Devotees in saffron, orange, white and maroon saris and kurtas sit on the floor and in chairs, many women with bindi and sindoor. A white standing fan and a blank projection screen are visible at the top, with a printed notice board on the left wall and a dark wooden door.
