Outdoor ritual gathering under a green mesh canopy beside a small tiled-roof shrine with a red-and-white decorated doorway. Seated devotees in white and orange clothing sit on black mats and cloth mats in rows, facing the shrine. A man in white dhoti and shawl stands near the shrine area, and a woman in white sari walks between the rows. Two people in orange robes stand at right, one holding a camera on a stand and another walking barefoot across the mats. Trees frame the scene, with brass plates and a blue tarpaulin in the foreground. The gathering appears to be a puja or satsang at an ashram courtyard.
