Stage photograph of a satsang at an ashram hall. On the left, a large golden throne with a carved golden arch holds a painted deity murti, a figure with dark hair, white face paint, and a crown, adorned with pearl and gold necklaces. Seated on a silver and red throne in the centre is a man with a saffron-red turban and shawl, wearing a pink and white garland, gold necklaces, and a pendant, holding a small object in his hands. Red and white garlands hang from the wooden lattice backdrop lined with lamps, and a trident stands nearby on a brass stand. A striped rug covers the stage in front of a microphone stand. Swamiji (probable) is seated centrally on the silver throne, identified by his saffron-red turban, ornate gold necklaces, and pink garland.
