Photo of a satsang session in an ashram hall. A man with long swept-back black hair, a full beard, a white tilak and a rust-orange robe sits on an ornate silver-and-red velvet throne. He wears a heavy gold necklace and bangles and holds a small microphone near his chest. A silver trishul stands at left beside a wooden table with a black audio device and a drum. Behind him, seated devotees in white and orange attire watch, and two electric fans are visible. Given the long hair, distinctive gold ornaments and orange robe, this appears to be Swamiji (probable), seated in the teaching role, with the attendees as devotees.
