A seated man in a maroon-red robe and rudraksha mala sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with a red cushion, smiling beside a microphone stand. In front of him, a woman in a magenta saree and several men in white dhotis with saffron shawls sit on the floor with hands raised in greeting. Behind the throne a large bronze relief of a multi-armed goddess deity murti with a crown and jewellery fills the wall. A silver staff leans at the left edge. The scene is a satsang-style sangha meeting. The seated figure is an in-person candidate for a person, based on the maroon robe, rudraksha mala and ceremonial throne setting.
