A large indoor satsang hall with a crowd of many dozens of seated devotees, mostly men in white clothes, viewed from behind, facing a raised stage. On the stage, a central figure in orange robes sits on an ornate golden throne-like seat before a painted backdrop of a temple and forest scene, with a few seated attendants in white and colourful saris beside him. A speaker in white sits at a microphone to one side, and a camera on a tripod is set up near the stage. Hanging decorative banners with orange tassels and geometric patterns frame the stage. A figure in orange robes with long hair appears to be seated centrally, consistent with a probable Swamiji presence on the dais. Many people are visible, a crowd of over 100 seated attendees.
