A seated man in a maroon-red sannyasi robe with a rudraksha mala draped across his shoulders sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with a cobra-hood canopy, eyes closed, holding a prayer bead strand. Behind him a large golden relief of a multi-armed deity holding a book and other objects forms the backdrop, flanked by potted plants, a golden trident on the left and a brass vessel on a yellow-draped table. A red carpeted dais and microphone stand complete the stage setting. Swamiji (probable) appearance cues: long swept-back hair, saffron-red robes, rudraksha mala and ornate throne; the page names this as a sangha meeting.
