Photograph of an indoor satsang. A long-haired man with a red-and-white floral garland, wearing a red garment and gold-edged red cloth, sits facing right with one hand raised in a gesture while smiling. Opposite him, a younger man in a white kurta with an orange shawl bearing printed Tamil script and hands pressed together in namaste listens with a small folded paper in one hand. A white cabinet and gold-toned decorations stand in the background. Swamiji (probable): the seated long-haired figure in the red garment and floral garland, consistent with the page's reference to a morning satsang where Paramahamsa Nithyananda answered devotees' questions.
