A dense outdoor crowd of devotees stands closely together in a garden courtyard, most in white or light clothing. Men in white shirts and dhotis wear rudraksha malas, and a young man in the foreground has a tilak on his forehead. Women wear sarees in green, orange, teal and blue, some with glasses and hair tied back. Behind them a white wall, green shrubs and stone sculptures are visible, and a string of white flowers hangs at the upper right. A large green leaf frames the right edge. No single person is clearly identified as a person.

A photograph of an outdoor circle of devotees standing on green lawn beneath tall palm and tropical foliage, with a large fan-leaved palm on the left. Several people wear white, cream and blue clothing, many with red-and-white or saffron prayer shawls and beaded necklaces. A man in a red-and-white patterned top and a bare-chested man in a saffron-and-orange dhoti stand near the centre, arms folded or hands clasped. A man in a light blue kurta with an orange shawl stands at the centre-right. Women in saris and salwar kameez in yellow, pink and purple stand in the group, and foreign participants in casual clothing and backpacks stand at the front-right. The scene looks like a group gathering at a retreat in Phuket, Thailand.
