A photograph of a decorated stage set for a satsang or talk. A seated man in saffron-orange robes and a red crown sits on a red cushioned throne, wearing long white and orange garlands and a rudraksha-style mala, positioned on a golden Nandi bull figure. Behind him a large golden wheel sits within a canopy of dried straw and green leaves, flanked by wooden doors, with a trident and oil lamps on either side. Clay pots, potted plants and flowers surround the stage, and a microphone stand stands at the front. Overhead, stage lights hang from a metal truss. The setting resembles a Hindu ritual stage with a throne, a bull statue and ceremonial decoration.
