A large outdoor tented assembly with a white canopy trimmed in red ring-shaped drapes and blue steel poles, with hanging striped banners. Hundreds of devotees sit on red carpeting and rows of red, blue and white plastic chairs, mostly dressed in white, with some in orange and pink. In the foreground two saffron-robed sadhus sit near the left, one with a long white beard. A golden stand with a gold-draped table holds a small golden deity murti near the centre, and a decorated kalasha-like pillar stands at the back. The scene resembles a satsang or celebratory gathering, with no clearly identifiable figure on a throne.
