A photograph of a satsang stage set with a golden throne at centre, where a figure in saffron-orange robes, long hair swept back and a red bindi sits cross-legged on a red cushion, speaking. Two rearing golden lion-headed pillars flank the throne, with golden lions at the stage edges and a patterned red-gold backdrop. A man in white shirt and trousers sits on the left in a golden chair, and two women sit on the right, one in a green sari with purple blouse and one in pink. The ornate golden chair and the presence of the speaker on a throne with devotee-style audience seating suggest a discourse setting. Swamiji (probable): the seated speaker has long swept-back hair, saffron robes, a rudraksha mala and gold bangles.
