Two large golden statues of standing deities with multiple arms, crowns and orange-pink skin flank the throne. Tall gold lamp stands line the stage, and the blue, green and orange painted pillars and red-patterned carpet frame the scene. The photo appears to be a stage setting at a satsang or discourse.
