A seated audience faces a stage at an indoor programme. On a raised platform, a figure in orange robes sits on a yellow armchair with dark trim, a microphone stand beside it. Many attendees in white ritual clothing and some in orange or brown sit cross-legged on the floor, viewed from behind. A projection screen hangs at upper right, and a red curtain backs the stage. A person in an orange robe sits in the mid-right, and an attendee in a grey shirt rests a hand on their head. The presentation suggests a satsang or discourse session.
