A standing figure in a flowing saffron-orange robe raises both arms on a white stage before a deep red velvet drape. Behind them sits an ornate yellow throne with a red cushion, flanked by white podiums with water bottles and a microphone stand. In the foreground, a large seated audience in white clothes, with white headbands tied over their heads, faces the stage; some wear mustard and maroon garments and sit on mats with bags and bottles nearby. The scene looks like a satsang or group session with a teacher leading a gesture.
