A large crowd of devotees, mostly men in white shirts and white dhotis with white headbands, sits packed together on the floor of a hall, seen from behind. At the far end, a figure in orange-red clothing with a red turban sits on an ornate golden throne flanked by golden staffs, addressing the assembly. Portrait frames hang on the walls and wooden doors are set in the back wall. The scene suggests a satsang or discourse. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure on the golden throne wears an orange-red garment and a red crown-like turban, with long hair visible.
