A dense crowd of seated devotees fills the frame at an evening satsang, many with palms pressed together in anjali. Men wear white shirts and a pink-and-white striped shirt, while women wear saris in yellow, green and pink, several with red bindis and gold jewellery. Faces are turned toward a stage out of frame, with eyes closed or gazing forward in devotion. The dim lighting suggests dusk.
