A seated figure on an orange-cushioned throne holds a tall silver staff topped with a silver finial, wearing a garland of yellow beads, white flowers and red blossoms over a bare chest and reddish-maroon drape. Seated on a red floral cloth below him, a man in white dhoti and orange-red shawl, with vertical sacred marks on his forehead, leans forward with a bowl of oil or water. Around them, several women and girls sit or stand in saris, one girl wearing white flowers in her hair, and a standing woman in maroon sari with a rudraksha-style mala watches. A cameraman with a video camera stands at the right edge. A small brass vessel rests on the floor. The scene appears to be a satsang or puja at a devotees' home, with a framed picture on the wall.

Women in white and cream saris and a man in white shirt kneel with brass plates of offerings. Bananas and small metal pots sit on a shelf behind.
