Photo of a dimly lit hall where a large audience of people in white clothes sits on the floor, seen from behind, facing a stage. Purple haze and smoke drift across the stage, which is framed by ornate golden carved pillars and lit oil lamps. A figure in orange-saffron and white draped clothing with beaded necklaces stands at the centre of the stage near a floral arrangement, while a video camera on a tripod records from the right. The atmosphere is a satsang or discourse setting.
