A courtyard session in a red-walled temple courtyard with carved wooden pillars, hanging brass bells and a kalasha-topped pot. A bare-chested man stands on a raised silver-and-wood seat holding a microphone, with a long-haired figure visible beside him. Around him sit many young devotees in saffron-orange robes and beaded rudraksha malas, some with long braided hair and white forehead markings, seated on blue mats and laughing. A brass trident-shaped lamp stands in the foreground at left. Several women in orange saris sit on the right side near a carved bench.
