Photograph of a satsang hall where a man with long dark hair, wearing a sky-blue sleeveless garment, rudraksha-style gold beaded necklaces and a bare upper body, sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne draped with garlands in yellow, purple, red and white. Beside him is a bronze-coloured statue of a standing figure in blue robes and a blue turban, also garlanded and set in a gold arched frame. Seated devotees in the foreground include a woman in white with a mala and a woman in a sari and mala bowing their heads. A blue drape hangs behind, and a small table holds fruit and flowers. Only the seated man is a physical person on the throne; the statue is not a person.
