On the left wall a poster titled Stages of Transformation shows diagrams of a circular structure. Decorative pillars with elephant motifs stand at the corners. A sitting man in a brown sweater and a bald elderly man in the foreground are visible; a green bag reading Dhyana sits nearby. The scene appears to be a seated discourse or satsang session.
