A large seated audience of devotees fills the foreground of an indoor hall, mostly women in white and cream clothes, some in pink, blue and printed saris, with a few men in dark clothes. On a raised stage behind them, a man with long swept-back dark hair sits in white clothing with an orange shawl, flanked by other people in orange and white garments. Two large framed portraits of a smiling woman with long dark hair hang on the back wall, one showing a hand holding a small cymbal-like instrument. Metal truss scaffolding frames the stage and a laptop and cables sit on a grey platform in front. The scene reads as a satsang or darshan gathering.
