A seated man in saffron-orange robes and a rust-red turban sits on a raised dais before a large crowd, hands raised above his head forming a gesture. He wears a long gold-and-beaded garland, bangles, and a leopard-print cushion beneath him. A gilded bull statue stands beside him and a golden trident leans on the right. Behind him, a camera operator films from a scaffold platform and a red sign reads Satsang. Hundreds of seated devotees in white, orange and saffron fill the hall, with a white draped backdrop and a standing fan at right.
