Photo of a large indoor satsang hall with a tall atrium, balconies and warm red lighting. A standing man in a white dhoti and bare upper body waves a lit golden aarti lamp toward the front of the room. Hundreds of seated devotees in white clothes and red shawls fill the floor and balconies, many with hands in namaskar or holding papers. A puja table with brass plates and lamps sits at the left edge, and a large framed painting hangs on the upper left wall. A bald man in white sits in the foreground with his hands together. The photo appears to show an evening aarti during a satsang gathering.
