A large hall filled with seated devotees facing a stage at the front. On the raised platform, a figure in orange robes sits on a white throne-like seat before a pink curtain and gold carved panels. Many attendees wear white dhotis and shawls, some bare-chested with rudraksha malas, and others wear orange robes; several have shaved heads and one has long dreadlocks. Cameramen with tripods film from the aisle, and a screen on the left shows a man in a red and orange turban. Gold stanchions line the aisle. The scene suggests a satsang in progress.
