A photograph of a crowded indoor satsang hall where many devotees sit on the floor in white and red clothes. In the foreground, a seated man in a red-and-maroon dhoti and a bare upper body wears long hair swept back and a rudraksha mala with a golden ornament; he sits on a gold-trimmed throne beside a golden lion-form seat, and a tray of rudraksha malas, apples and a water bottle lies before him. Devotees in saris and white clothing hold small brass cups and kumkum-coloured offerings around a round tray of red flowers, and a woman in a green saree bends forward to offer something. A portrait photo and screens stand at the left, with a decorated altar of blue and gold to the right.
