A large night-time crowd of women sits on the ground in rows at an outdoor satsang gathering, facing toward a stage area lit by green-white spotlights. Most wear white or light sarees and salwar kameez, with orange, red, purple, blue and green garments scattered among them. A bamboo fence runs across the middle distance, and a few white-clad figures stand behind it near a red-roofed structure at the right. No speaker or presenter is clearly visible within the frame, and no one is identifiable as a person in this image.
