A crowded indoor gathering of saffron-robed monastics and devotees seated on a marble floor in a temple-like hall. At center, a man in orange robes sits on an ornate white-and-red throne, flanked by a brass kalasha-style vessel placed before him. Around him, shaven-headed monks in orange and pink robes sit close together, one bearded sadhu wears a headpiece, and a woman in orange stands at left beside uniformed police officers. Television camera crews on tripods film the proceedings at lower left, and a man in red sits on the floor in front, with a few devotees in orange and yellow turbans at right. The setting appears to be a formal assembly or satsang.
