A photograph of a seated figure on a brown leather throne-style chair at a satsang gathering, speaking into a microphone on a stand while raising one hand. The figure wears a saffron-orange garment, a long rudraksha mala and gold bangles, with a tall black crown-like headdress and a red-orange forehead mark. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair style, ornate saffron clothing and rudraksha mala cues, seated in a position of honour. Behind and around, a large audience sits in rows, many raising hands, with women in green and white and men in white kurtas wearing orange-red garlands. A silver trishul-topped staff stands at the left edge, and a warm orange-lit hall forms the backdrop.
