A large seated gathering of devotees in a hall, most with eyes closed in meditation. Foreground: a woman in saffron/orange robe with a dark rudraksha mala and a red bindi, eyes closed, hands resting; beside her a woman in white with a dark mala. Behind them rows of people in orange, saffron and white clothes, several wearing rudraksha malas, some with tilak and red bindis. Light wooden floor, cushions and a white-walled hall. No stage figure with a distinctive a person presentation is clearly visible, so the a person field is none.
