A seated man in an orange-saffron robe and a white flower garland sits on an ornate gold throne with red cushions, hands folded in his lap, in a temple-style hall. Behind him are large garlands of yellow, red and green flowers around two silver deity murtis under gold crowns. To the right stands another garlanded murti, and a gold lion figure sits at the throne's side. Around the throne, a group of about ten people in white dhotis and saris sit on a mat, some with white and orange shawls, a few wearing rudraksha or bead necklaces. A microphone stands on the left, a brass bell lies on the floor, and a black electric fan is at the edge. The figure on the throne has long dark hair and distinctive orange and garland adornments with a throne presentation, and appears to be a person, seated in a role of teacher giving satsang.
