Most wear white or light clothing with orange lanyards and red or orange shawls.

Outdoor gathering of many people seated on colourful striped woven mats on reddish-brown earth beneath trees. Most attendees wear white kurta-style clothing with red-and-saffron shawls or scarves, and a few carry orange bags. Rows of people sit on the ground while others sit on chairs at the right edge. Behind them are rubble stone piles, a red-painted structure and a tripod-mounted camera. No individual can be confidently identified as a person from appearance, so no specific figure is singled out.

A seated group of roughly two dozen devotees sits on woven mats under large shady trees in an outdoor courtyard. Many wear white or cream clothing with red and orange shawls draped over their shoulders, and several take notes. At the centre back stands a shrine with a blue-arched niche holding a small orange-robed figure, with a framed portrait on a red-cushioned chair in front and red and pink floral offerings below. A man in orange robes sits at the left edge near a stone bench, and a woman in white stands to the right, addressing the group. The scene appears to be a satsang or padukapuja gathering.
