A seated man in a white turban, white dhoti and shawl with gold border sits with palms pressed together in namaste on a red-and-gold throne-like chair on an orange-draped stage. A pink flower garland hangs around his neck. Flanking armchairs and pink flower vases stand on the stage. Behind him a large banner shows a smiling man in a white turban beside Tamil script, and above hang colourful circular floral decorations. The banner text names a person as the organiser of a Dhyana Satsang. The seated figure's appearance is consistent with the page's a person claim but insufficiently distinctive, so identity is uncertain.
