A night-time outdoor gathering of a large seated audience facing away from the camera toward an unseen stage. Rows of men sit on blue plastic chairs across a dry, grassy open ground, most wearing white shirts and white dhotis, with one man in a bright orange shirt at left. Many are looking forward. Bright floodlights on tall poles light the ground, and string lights and orange and white pennants line the field. At right, a white multi-storey building is draped with white and orange bunting. The scene reads as an evening satsang or discourse gathering with an audience of several hundred people.
