Photograph from behind a large audience seated in rows in a red-walled hall with pink lighting. Many attendees wear white clothes with red and gold shawls over the shoulders, and some hold green lanyards. On a raised stage at the centre, a figure sits on an ornate golden throne flanked by lit oil lamps and decorative backdrops, while a large screen on the right shows a deity image. Another screen above the stage shows a standing figure. A few people in the foreground wear sunglasses and the back rows include some seated in wheelchairs.

Many devotees sit on the floor facing the stage, mostly women in white and cream saris with gold borders and beaded necklaces, along with men in white dhotis and shawls. Oil lamps and a small offering tray with flowers sit in the foreground. The page describes a Mahasadashivoham satsang session, but the figure's appearance does not clearly match the page's claim, so identity is uncertain; roles are given instead. Around 100 people are visible.2018-01-03A photograph of a large seated congregation inside a red-draped hall during a ritual.
