A stage event under a white canopy with a red-draped platform and a brass ceremonial throne arch with a golden umbrella. A seated man in a saffron-orange robe with a bare upper body, long swept-back dark hair and a red-tinged shawl sits centrally, and a standing man in a rust-red dhoti with a striped shawl and a multicoloured garland offers a small book or envelope toward him. Several seated men in saffron-orange robes and orange turbans flank the stage, and an ornate flower-garlanded deity murti sits on a seat at the left, with a brass oil lamp in the foreground. The chairs and rows of seated devotees suggest a discourse setting.
