A photograph of a seated satsang or puja gathering in a carpeted hall with white chairs. In the foreground, a woman with long wavy blonde hair, a yellow and gold printed kurta and a red-orange shawl sits cross-legged, holding a small brass item and a flower near a tray. A white tilak is on her forehead. Beside her, a woman in white with glasses and a red shawl holds a small object. Other devotees in white and red shawls sit with eyes closed or heads bowed behind them. A low orange cloth holds brass puja plates, flower petals, a small kalasha-like vessel, and a brass box with offerings. The woman in yellow may be a person candidate, with a distinctive flowing hairstyle and gold-patterned ceremonial clothing, but the appearance is uncertain. Several people sit in the background among white chairs.
