A large tented hall filled with seated devotees in white ritual clothing, sitting cross-legged on striped rugs in yellow, purple and blue. Many devotees wear white kurtas and some carry rudraksha malas. In the front left, several shaved-headed people wear saffron and yellow robes. Colourful decorative hangings with elephant motifs hang from the tent ceiling. At the far front, a figure in orange clothing sits on a raised platform before a painted backdrop of a mountain, with a camera on a tripod nearby. The scene appears to be a satsang or assembly at a person ashram setting.
