A night-time outdoor satsang photographed from the front of a large crowd, with strong white floodlights on tall stands framing the scene. Hundreds of people sit on rows of white plastic chairs and red chairs across a green-and-blue carpeted ground, with a central red-carpeted walkway leading toward a stage at the far end. In the foreground, a man in an orange saffron robe with an orange turban stands among devotees, and a few people in white dhotis and orange shawls greet others.

A distant figure in white stands on the walkway near the stage, and trees and tents line the background under a dark sky.
