A photograph of a satsang in an ornate golden hall with carved gold pillars and a carved bird motif. A man seated on a red velvet throne with gold armrests, wearing orange ochre robes, a saffron shawl and gold bangles, gestures with his hands while speaking. He is a person by appearance: long swept-back hair and ornate ceremonial gold adornments on a throne. Three standing men attend: two in casual shirts, one in a pink shirt and dark trousers, one in a plaid shirt and jeans, and a shaven-headed sannyasi in orange robes and rudraksha mala standing at right, bare-chested with an orange wrap. Red-cushioned wooden seats flank the scene, and petals lie on the floor.

Three people sit on wooden benches facing him: a woman in a purple sari, a child partly visible at left, and two men in a striped sweater and a white shirt, all barefoot. A brown wooden lion statue stands to the right and a colourful circular rangoli design is on the floor. The seated figure matches the Swamiji candidate by appearance (long swept-back hair, saffron clothing, rudraksha-style mala and gold necklace) and is. The scene resembles a television-studio discussion set rather than a temple.2013-09-18
