Guru Purnima satsang at a temple hall with ornate gold carved pillars and a gilded arch. A seated figure on a throne wears a red-and-gold turban, a red robe, and a beaded mala with a gold necklace, flanked by garlands in red, yellow, green and white. Golden deity figures stand on each side, one holding a trident. Devotees in white and pastel clothes sit on a red-draped platform facing the throne, with brass offering plates in front. The seated figure matches the page's appearance cues for a person but cannot be confirmed from appearance alone, so identity is uncertain.
