A photograph of an evening satsang in an open courtyard. A shaved-headed man in white ritual cloth sits cross-legged on a raised white platform, speaking into a microphone and gesturing with his hands. Behind him stands a gilded arched shrine with green satin backdrop and a deity murti draped in red and orange garlands of marigolds, with brass oil lamps lit at the side. Potted plants and banana leaves frame the scene. Rows of seated devotees in white, orange and green clothing face the platform, and a man in white stands at the left edge.
