In the foreground, a person with long dark hair worn loose down the back, wearing a brown wrap and a leopard-print garment with a brown dhoti-style lower cloth, walks away from the camera across a red carpet toward a golden seated figure on a raised golden throne-like seat. Seated devotees fill the floor on both sides, some in white clothes, some in orange and saffron, one man with a brown shawl and a rudraksha-style neck garland. Large screens on the walls show a bright image. The scene reads as a satsang or darshan gathering.
