A seated teacher sits cross-legged on a red-cushioned golden throne on a raised stage, wearing a rust-orange wrap and with long dark hair, facing an audience of participants in white kurtas with red-and-orange shawls sitting on mats on a colourful patterned carpet. Behind the throne a large golden deity murti with multiple arms stands against a dark backdrop flanked by gold columns and large black trident motifs. Cameras on tripods film the scene from the side and front. The teacher's appearance is consistent with Swamiji (probable), with long swept-back hair and saffron-orange wrap, seated as the speaker on the throne. Participants sit in rows with their backs to the camera.
