Photograph of a stage event with a black-and-white historic city backdrop of temple spires and ghats. A man with long hair, a yellow marigold garland and reddish-orange robes sits on a gilded throne with a golden canopy and a trident leaning beside him; he has a tilak and smiles. Seated beside him is a bald man in cream robes and orange shawl on a red-cushioned gilded chair. On the right, a man in orange robes, orange head cloth and eyeglasses sits at a microphone on a gilded chair. A younger man in orange robes, rudraksha beads and a red shawl sits with hands joined in front of the throne. The scene suggests a discourse or satsang session; a person is the man in the center-left throne with long hair, yellow garland and ornate golden chair, and is seated in person.
