A photograph of a Yoga Sutras discourse in a hall with a deep blue draped backdrop and red-and-cream valance with woven panels. A red banner reading "Yoga Sutras" hangs above a cream armchair on a stage. A seated figure in orange robes with an orange turban and a rudraksha mala sits on the chair with hands held in front. Vases of flowers stand on white pedestals beside the chair, and a whiteboard is at right. A camera on a tripod is at left. The audience sits on white plastic chairs facing the stage, many seen from behind. The figure's distinctive orange turban and mala are visible cues, so this is a person presentation on stage.
