A seated man in an ornate silver-and-red-velvet chair speaks during a satsang gathering. He wears a red-orange dhoti-style garment draped over one shoulder, layered gold necklaces, gold armbands and a red bindi. Long dark hair falls past his shoulders and he holds a small microphone near his chin with one hand. Beside him stand two tall silver ceremonial staffs topped with a trident and a crystal finial on a silver stand. Blurred seated audience members fill the background in a white-walled hall. Probable Swamiji by appearance cues: long swept-back hair, ornate gold jewellery and saffron-orange clothing, seated as speaker.
