Photograph of a large seated congregation at a Nithya Satsang, mostly men in saffron-orange and red robes with gold borders, many with rudraksha malas and forehead tilak. In the foreground, three men sit cross-legged on a white floor with hands folded or one hand raised to the chin, gazing forward. Behind them, rows of devotees in orange and white clothing sit attentively, with a few people in white dhotis and a woman at left. The setting appears to be an indoor hall with pale walls and a light marble floor. No single figure is clearly identifiable as a person by appearance, so the a person field is unsure.2016-08-10 +1 copiesFebruary 21 20132013-02-21A seated group of saffron-and-maroon-robed sannyasi-style men sits cross-legged on mats in a hall during a meditation or satsang session.
