Indoor gathering in a hall with string lights overhead and a patterned banner backdrop in orange, red and cream. A man in a saffron-orange turban and saffron-orange robes, with long swept-back hair and a multicoloured flower garland, sits on a white-draped couch at right, gesturing with his hands while speaking. Around him stand about a dozen men in white shirts and white dhotis, many wearing rudraksha-style beaded necklaces, along with women in white saris and orange-shawled young men in the foreground. A young man bows his head near the couch and a woman in a white sari with a braid stands nearby. Probable Swamiji cues are the saffron turban, saffron robes, long hair and multicoloured garland, seated in a position of honour in the centre of the devotees.
