A red-carpeted tent with draped red velvet backdrop where a group of saffron-robed sadhus and monks sit in a long U-shaped arrangement. Several seated figures wear orange and saffron robes, rudraksha malas and white beaded necklaces, while others sit behind gold-brocaded low cushioned seats and white-draped tables with water bottles. A bearded elder with long grey hair and a white shawl sits at left beside a woman in an orange sari with a red bindi. A man with long dark hair and rudraksha malas sits among them. The scene reads as a formal assembly of religious leaders, with no clearly identifiable Swamiji among the visible people.
