A photograph of a seated satsang stage with a red carpet and flower arrangements in front. Five people sit on the floor: at left a young man in white kurta with an orange lanyard, beside him a bearded man in white, then a woman in a white sari with orange border, a bearded man in white kurta, and at right a young man in saffron-orange cloth wrapped on his head and shoulders, wearing a rudraksha mala, seated at a microphone stand. Behind them stands a framed deity murti garlanded with yellow and red flowers, flanked by potted palms and a large saffron-robed portrait banner on the back wall. Keyboard equipment is visible at lower left. The saffron-clad man at right has distinctive ceremonial cues, so he is noted as a person candidate.
