A photograph of a formal satsang on an ornate gold-carved throne with red tiger-striped cushions. A man seated on the right wears saffron robes, a long white and red flower garland with a rudraksha mala, a gold necklace, and a red forehead mark; his long hair is swept back, and he is a distinctive candidate for Swamiji (probable), seated in a devotional setting. Beside him, a younger man in saffron robes and a gold necklace kneels and leans forward, holding an open book or ceremonial text on a wooden stand while touching its pages. A trident stands behind them to the left, with green foliage and red flowers nearby. The lower left shows the top of another head in the foreground.
