A photograph of a devotional gathering in a temporary open-sided hall with a corrugated roof and bamboo beams. Many people in white and saffron-orange shawls sit and stand, several with palms pressed together in namaskar. Near the centre, a figure in a saffron-orange robe and orange turban sits on a raised white floral-decorated seat, a garland around the neck. Behind this seat hangs a large orange painted backdrop. On the left, women in white saris with orange shawls stand in a line beside a signboard reading 7 சக்தி மையங்கள், with a decorative red and white rangoli-style border. Oil lamps and a fan are visible at the edges.
