Outdoor satsang at a open-sided pavilion. A bearded man with long dreadlocks sits in a light blue floral upholstered armchair behind a glass-topped table, wearing a rust-red shawl over bare shoulders and a rust-red dhoti, with a microphone on a stand before him. Two orange-robed devotees sit on a mat at left, and a standing orange-clad attendant is at the far left edge. Behind him, tall white and red garlands wrap pillars, a silver staff leans nearby, a brass lamp stands at right, and an electric fan and speakers sit in the background. The man appears to be a person by appearance cues of long dreadlocks and ornate ceremonial setting, seated in a chair while speaking as a teacher.
