A satsang on a stage draped with deep red curtains and gold-carved pillars. A man seated in a white-and-silver throne-style chair wears a rust-orange robe and a sacred ash mark, arms crossed over his chest, speaking into a microphone on a stand. A golden trident stands to the left and a golden nandi figure sits on the floor in front. Around him, devotees sit on colourful woven mats: a man in white dhoti with gold border, and women in white and gold-bordered saris and rust-coloured garments. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, rust-orange robe and rudraksha-style adornment of the seated teacher.
