A satsang in a pale hall with a large crowd seated on the floor in front of a raised brown leather throne. A central figure with long dark hair sits smiling in an orange-rust robe with a rudraksha mala and a gold necklace, a probable Swamiji by visible cues, with a small microphone and an ornate golden ceremonial staff behind him. Around him sit many young people in orange, saffron and white clothing, some with forehead vibhuti and bindis, and a few adults in white shirts stand in the background near framed photographs on the wall. Several seated devotees in white dhoti-style garments with yellow borders are seen from behind in the foreground.
