A photograph from a satsang hall. A seated man with long swept-back dark hair, a white shawl draped over his shoulder and bare upper body, and a gold ceremonial necklace sits on a red-cushioned throne with his hands raised together in a gesture toward a woman in a blue patterned sari and gold necklace, who stands with both palms raised before him. Behind them, several people in white clothes sit on a white floor, including a woman in a yellow shawl on the left. A brass lamp stand with a lit flame and a brass plate with incense sticks sit in the foreground, and an orange cloth lies on the throne's footrest. The scene has the look of a devotee receiving blessing or a teaching during satsang. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has long swept-back hair, a white shawl and a gold necklace on a throne.
