A satsang hall viewed from behind the seated audience, facing a stage with a large gold ornate backdrop and red curtains. On a red-cushioned throne in the centre sits a man with long hair wearing orange saffron robes and a white flower garland, in a teaching posture, with a microphone before him. Rows of devotees sit on the floor in white dhotis and shawls, many bare-chested, some wearing rudraksha malas, with saffron-clad sannyasis among them. Video cameras on tripods flank the stage. Golden trident-topped railings and gold panels frame the scene.
