Photo of a stage set for a satsang or darshan. A man in saffron-orange robes, an orange turban and a rudraksha mala sits cross-legged on a red cushioned silver throne flanked by silver lion figures. Behind him stands a golden bull (nandi) with garlands of yellow and orange flowers, and a golden deity murti in a crown sits in a gilded arch. Two gold-toned standing female figures flank the central set, and golden shrines with garlanded deities in blue and green sit at the left and right. A red curtain forms the backdrop. Rows of seated devotees in orange and white clothes face the stage from the bottom of the frame, several with flowers in their hair. The seated man is a probable Swamiji by his saffron robes, orange turban and mala, seated on a throne.
