Photograph of a satsang event with two men in saffron-orange robes seated closely together, smiling and holding a thin string between them while one cuts or pulls it with a pair of scissors. The man on the right has long dark hair, a white sacred ash mark on his forehead and a red bindi, and wears a gold bead necklace over orange-red rudraksha malas and a gold armband. The man on the left is shaven-headed, wears glasses, a red tilak and orange-red malas, and has a small tattoo on his forearm. Behind them, several people in orange robes stand and hold malas and cloth. The ornate silver-toned frame behind the seated man and a leopard-print cushion suggest a ceremonial seat.
