A photograph of an indoor satsang setting. A long-haired figure in an orange-brown draped robe with an orange-and-rudraksha bead necklace smiles broadly and places a raised palm on the forehead of an older bald man in a white polo shirt and a rudraksha mala, who bows his head and holds a sheaf of white papers. Behind them, seated devotees in white clothes and a shaved-headed man with a tilak watch; a wall-mounted air conditioner and a fan are visible. Two physical people are clearly visible in the foreground, with several more seated and standing behind.
