A photograph of a seated group in meditation during a satsang gathering. In the foreground a shaved-headed man in an orange-saffron shawl over bare shoulders wears a long rudraksha mala, eyes closed, with a red bindi and white vertical tilak, and glasses. Beside him on the right, a shaved-headed man in white dhoti and shawl with a gold border sits with eyes closed. On the left, a man with long swept-back hair, white forehead band and white shirt wears a dark cord with a pendant, eyes closed. Behind them several other seated participants in white clothes meditate in a pale yellow hall. Presentation cues for the foreground figure are not distinctive enough to confirm identity.
