A large tented hall with yellow draped fabric and red drapes hangs overhead, filled with a dense crowd of seated devotees in white clothing and saffron-orange shawls on red chairs, facing a raised red stage. On the stage a figure wears a tall red-and-saffron turban and orange robe near a decorated altar, while two large screens beside the stage show the same turbaned figure enlarged. Garlands and tassels decorate the ceiling. The scene is an assembled satsang or public gathering. Whether the turbaned figure is the a person cannot be confirmed from appearance alone.
