A photograph of a satsang in an arched, whitewashed hall with ornate stucco arches and a painted deity panel behind. A man seated on a gold-framed throne wears an orange-saffron robe, a long gold necklace and a gold crown, with long dark hair, and is positioned centrally before the arches; he matches several distinctive presentation cues, so this is a probable candidate for Swamiji. Beside the throne, a shaved-headed priest in orange robes sits on a rug with brass vessels and a white-marked forehead and arms, performing a ritual. At the lower right, a young attendant in white clothing sits near a laptop. A peach-coloured cloth hangs on the right wall and a portable cooler stands at left.
