Outdoor gathering under a green mesh tarp supported by wooden poles, with a crowd of seated devotees in orange and saffron clothing on a dirt ground. A man in orange robes stands on a raised platform at the centre, flanked by a bare-chested figure with long dreadlocked hair and a bearded man in orange at the right side of the stage. A cameraman in orange stands at left operating a video camera on a tripod. Behind the stage is a small white structure decorated with a marigold garland and a bundle of cloth, with two large trident-shaped iron tridents standing at right. Many women in saffron and white saris and older women sit cross-legged in the foreground, and several children are present at left. Roughly sixty or more people are visible.

Dozens of participants sit on mats and cloth: many wear saffron/orange robes, others wear white dhotis and blouses, and a woman in a pink patterned sari sits at the right edge. A man in orange robes sits centrally at the front of the pavilion, seemingly speaking to the group, with a trident and decorated pillars and a kalasha-style urn nearby. Camera tripods, a video camera on a stand and a large black bag are in the foreground, and a bright cloth banner with garlands hangs at the pavilion roof.
