A photograph of a satsang with a long-haired figure seated on a red velvet throne, wearing an orange-saffron dhoti and shawl with a gold beaded necklace and a white forehead marking, facing a standing man in a white kurta with a red-orange shawl over his shoulder. The seated figure extends both hands toward the man, who raises one palm in response. Behind them is a deity murti or decorated figure draped in garlands of yellow, red, white and purple flowers, with gold ornaments and a blue body. At the far right a partly visible man in white with a white forehead marking and a rudraksha mala sits. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure has long swept-back hair, a gold necklace and saffron clothing, consistent with the page's reference to Swamiji. The standing man is a devotee.
