A large seated congregation of women dressed in white clothing with orange-red lanyards and saffron-orange shawls sits on a floor covered with colourful rugs inside a tent-like hall. Many have white and red tilak marks on their foreheads and wear rudraksha or beaded necklaces, and several are clapping or pressing palms together in devotion. In the foreground a blonde woman in white with an orange shawl and a bindi smiles while clapping, and a woman in a white sari with an orange shawl sits beside her. Ornate gold and red decorations and a metal stand appear at the right edge. Behind them the crowd extends toward the back of the hall, with no visible deity, throne or speaker identified in the frame.
