A large open pavilion with a bamboo and thatched roof hung with strings of green leaves, where a seated figure in orange robes with a white and red garland sits on a white-draped platform beneath a red and white canopy umbrella. Around him, rows of people in white clothes sit on the sandy floor, many with orange shawls, and some sit on white circular seats in the foreground. Palm fronds decorate the pillars and the crowd extends into the background. Overhead, the structure is lined with strands of decorations and a gathering of devotees fills the hall.
