A photograph of a devotee event in an indoor hall with a banner reading "Bhagavad Gita Dhyana Satsang" behind. A bare-chested man in a maroon turban with an orange band and a white flower-and-leaf garland, wearing red and white dhoti-style cloth with a red shawl, raises his palm in blessing toward a smiling young man in dark clothing with his hands in anjali. Another man in an orange cloth stands behind, and a young man and boy with folded hands watch from the left. A tray holds wrapped sweets, a red apple and rudraksha malas. A deity image and a throne-like structure appear in the background. The turbaned figure's appearance does not clearly establish a specific identity, so no name is given.
