Photo of an indoor hall with red carpet and white walls, where a seated man in white clothes with an orange shawl sits on a raised platform before a small decorated seat draped with flower garlands. A large framed portrait of a figure in white headwear with a swept-back look hangs on the wall behind him. Around eight seated people in white and checked shirts face the platform on the floor, and ceiling fans hang overhead. A satsang or discourse setting. The man's identity is uncertain from appearance alone, so he is described by role only.
