A photograph of an indoor satsang in an ornate room with marble floor, arched wooden doors and glass display cabinets. On the right, a figure with long dark hair and orange-red robes sits on a gold-framed chair draped with a patterned cloth, smiling, with a black monitor beside it. Before him, several people in orange robes sit cross-legged on the floor with their backs to the camera, and devotees in white and orange clothing sit with hands folded in namaste. A video camera on a tripod and a small lamp stand are set up at the left. The appearance of the seated figure is consistent with the a person cues of long swept-back hair, orange ornate clothing and rudraksha-style adornment, while the page does not say he is present.
