Outdoor gathering of many seated people in orange and saffron clothing at an open-air ashram courtyard. A man with a short beard and orange-red cloth sits on a chair facing the crowd, holding a long ceremonial staff with a metal top. Behind him hang garlands of white and red flowers on pillars, and nearby stand a silver kalasha-like vessel and standing electric fans. Most attendees face away from the camera, showing long dark hair, orange cloths draped over the shoulder and white beaded necklaces. Several are bare-backed. A woman in an orange top and a woman in a yellow sari sit in the background.
