Outdoor scene on a hillside with a large seated group of devotees in white clothes and orange saffron shawls draped over their shoulders, sitting on the ground in rows and meditating with eyes closed. Several young trees with thin trunks rise among them, and a rocky green hill and a town with temple spires appear in the background under a pale sky. A small black loudspeaker sits at the lower left. Some women wear saris in red, purple and cream, and several people hold their hands in lap. Overall the gathering looks like an open-air meditation or satsang on a hill above a temple town.
