Dozens of men and some women sit on chairs and mats, many in white or grey shawls, knit caps and sweaters. A woman in a white headscarf and beige wrap sits near the centre. Foreground figures include an elderly man in a red knit cap and a bearded man in a white dhoti with rudraksha beads, and a woman with light hair sits at the lower right. Behind the seated rows a standing figure in a long orange robe with flowing dark hair stands near a flag, and an elderly man in a white garment stands at the far left. Some listeners hold their hands together or sit cross-legged, watching the discourse.
