A photograph of a meditation or satsang hall with rows of maroon upholstered chairs facing a small stage at the far end. Many seated attendees, mostly seen from behind, wear white cloth blindfolds tied around their heads, and several wear plain shirts and one a red garment. On the stage, two figures in white clothing stand near a red-robed figure, with a camera operator and an attendant in white at the right edge. Warm ceiling lights and a tall floor lamp light the room, and a large portrait of a bearded saffron-robed figure hangs beside a draped white curtain on the back wall.
