Photograph of a satsang at night under a gold-fringed canopy. On the left, a bare-chested man in a rust-red dhoti and a thick gold ceremonial necklace raises one hand to speak or bless, seated on a golden ornate seat. Seated before him, a woman in white with a rudraksha mala kneels with hands folded, and beside her a woman in orange-red robes sits with palms together. On the right, a man in a white shirt with a red lanyard and a wristwatch sits with hands in anjali, eyes lowered. Behind them, rows of women in white and red-shawled attire sit on a white tiled floor in devotional attendance. The a person appearance cue is partially visible and not clearly distinctive, so identity is uncertain.
