Night outdoor gathering with a large crowd of devotees facing a raised stage at right. A standing figure in an orange turban and orange robes, with a garland of beads around the neck, extends an arm toward the crowd from the stage. Bright floodlights and a decorated canopy with hanging coconuts and green leaves frame the stage. In the foreground, men in white dhotis and orange cords, a woman in white with an orange-red cord, and men in checked shirts stand with hands folded or raised, watching. The crowd stretches back into darkness under the lights, with many people standing and rows of seated devotees in the distance.
