A satsang with a seated figure in the foreground left, viewed from behind, bare-shouldered with an orange-and-gold draped cloth, rudraksha mala beads and hair in a bun, handing a folded white paper to a smiling man in a white shirt. A woman in a green, yellow and orange striped sari with rudraksha beads raises her hands in greeting beside him. A golden seat or throne is in the lower foreground. Behind them, women in white and cream saris and white clothing stand in a white-tiled hall with red curtains. The seated figure's appearance is consistent with the page's a person reference but is not distinctive enough to confirm, so the role is described as a seated devotee-facing figure.
