A large wide-angle photograph of a seated audience filling a hall with dark wooden panelled walls and a dark ceiling. Hundreds of people sit on the floor in rows, many in white, orange, red, saffron and pink clothing, some in sarees and salwar. At the centre front stands a figure in orange-red robes with long hair, flanked by two large screens showing a similar figure. The scene reads as a seated satsang or discourse session.
