A photograph of an indoor satsang session. A figure with long dark hair wears an orange-saffron robe and a rudraksha mala, seated on a deep red velvet chair in front of a maroon curtain and holding a small white card. With one hand raised to the forehead of a kneeling man in a white t-shirt with dark hair tied back and an orange-and-black cord around his neck, the seated figure performs a blessing. A bald person in orange sits in the lower foreground, and a standing fan and wall air conditioner are visible.
