A dimly lit indoor satsang hall where a central figure in orange and gold-trimmed robes sits on a white cushioned throne-like seat, one arm raised as if speaking, with a microphone stand before them. Seated on the floor and chairs to the left and right are about a dozen people in white ritual clothes, several holding microphones or listening attentively; a man in an orange robe with a red turban sits at far left beside a person in orange and white. A dark maroon curtain hangs behind the stage, with white drapes, paper garlands and a drum kit at the back right. Scattered flower petals lie on the floor. The appearance of the central figure is not clearly confirmed, so identity is uncertain.
