A seated man in a brown-orange dhoti-style garment and matching turban sits on an ornate golden throne with a tiger-skin cushion, wearing layered gold necklaces, a rudraksha-style red and multicolour flower garland, and gold bangles. Behind him is a large floral backdrop of yellow, red and purple flowers. To his right, brass oil lamps and hanging bells stand before a wall of garlands. Around him, women in white and cream saris, one in red, sit or stand with hands joined in anjali, and a young girl with white vibhuti marks on her forehead sits in an orange outfit, with a small child in the foreground. Paper badges are pinned to some clothing. The scene resembles a satsang-style darshan in an indoor hall.
