Indoor ritual gathering in a room with pale pink walls and hanging yellow and green fabric panels. A man in white dhoti and shawl with long swept-back hair and a rudraksha mala sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with red cushions, a flower arrangement beside him. Seated on the floor before him, a woman in orange sari and beaded necklace and other devotees in white and saffron clothing hold their hands in anjali. Brass lamps and offering plates lie in front of the group, with a tall gold staff standing behind them. The scene suggests satsang or darshan with the seated figure receiving devotees.

Several devotees sit on an orange mat below the throne: a shaved-headed priest in white with a white-striped shawl holds an open book, women in saris and a young boy hold small offering plates with flowers, and a child in pink stands at right. Orange and green hanging banners, a golden staff and a flower vase frame the scene. The throne figure's appearance is consistent with the page's reference to a person, though his face is not clearly enough visible to confirm.2011-02-18February 18 20112011-02-18
