A satsang discourse on a stage with a red and purple backdrop showing a globe and cosmic imagery. A seated figure in an ornate golden throne with a canopy sits in the centre, wearing an orange-red turban and orange-saffron robes, with a trident placed beside the throne and potted green plants at its sides. Two tall golden pillars frame the stage, with brass bells hanging nearby. A camera on a tripod films the stage. In front, rows of seated devotees in white clothes with red-and-orange shawls sit on white cushions facing the stage, many with shaved heads. Interpreting the throne-seated figure as a person is not supported by appearance cues alone, so he is described by role as the speaker on the throne.
