A man in a rust-orange and gold-bordered dhoti and shawl stands at a clear acrylic lectern during a satsang discourse. He wears a heavy gold pendant necklace over a rudraksha-style mala, a gold bracelet and a wristwatch, with a red bindi and white forehead markings. His right hand is raised in a mudra while he speaks. Behind him stands a colourful deity murti with four arms, holding a trident-like staff and a dhoti of green and red, beside blue-and-pink pillars and a red-and-white drape. Brass oil lamps stand on a gold-trimmed platform in the foreground.
