A photograph taken from behind of a person in a saffron-orange draped robe, long dark wavy hair falling down the back, walking through a hall toward a seated audience. The audience of many people wearing white clothes and white headbands sits cross-legged on the floor, with some in pink, orange and striped shirts. At the front, a deity murti on a decorated stand with an orange and gold backdrop, flanked by orange curtains and hanging orange-and-white decorations. A dark-haired figure in orange with long hair matches visible presentation cues, so this is a person in an in-person satsang setting. The audience numbers well over twenty visible people.
