A photograph of a screen showing a group of around nine seated people in a temple-like hall with red drapes and deity murtis in niches. A framed portrait of a saffron-robed figure with a turban-like headwrap stands at centre, labelled by no readable caption. Foreground participants sit on blue and pink cloths: a woman in white with a wooden mala, a woman in a patterned dress, a man in a red scarf, and a man in a blue top with a mala, with a tray and small items on the floor. Other participants sit on chairs and cushions behind them. The scene suggests a satsang or meditation session.
