Night outdoor gathering on a paved ground where a large crowd sits cross-legged on mats with blue borders for a satsang. Most attendees wear white dhotis and kurtas, while others wear orange-saffron robes and some wear dark or patterned casual clothes. Two saffron-robed figures stand near the back, and a yellow excavator, trucks and construction materials appear in the background under floodlights. A small book rests on the mat in the lower left foreground. No individual can be confidently identified as a person from appearance, so the scene is described by roles and clothing only.
