A seated man in saffron-orange robes and a rudraksha mala sits on an ornate silver throne with a red cushion, centred in a hall. Around him, rows of devotees sit on the floor in orange and white clothing, many with hands raised to their heads, some bare-chested with rudraksha malas. Brass oil lamps stand on the floor on striped mats, and a brass deity murti sits in the background. Large screens behind show a bearded man in red robes with a rudraksha mala. Several people in white and orange attire sit among the crowd, and the scene appears to be a satsang or meditation session.
