Two long rows of devotees stand facing each other down a glossy reflective hall floor during a satsang. Men on the left wear white dhotis and shirts, one in a teal shirt, many with hands pressed together in namaskar. Women on the right wear colourful saris in orange, red, pink and green, several with hands folded and one raising an arm. Brightly coloured striped pillars with orange tassels hang from the ceiling. At the far end stands an ornate golden throne-like seat with a deity murti or ceremonial decoration in front. Nobody in the scene is clearly identifiable as a person, so the a person field is none.
