Outdoor satsang under a green tarpaulin at an ashram courtyard. A bearded man with long dark hair sits cross-legged on a large light-blue cushioned seat, one hand raised to his chin, wearing a red-orange cloth draped over his body. Behind him are garlands of white and red flowers draped over pillars, a trishul leaning against the pillar at right, a brass kalasha-style lamp stand, and a fan. Around him, a large seated audience of women fills the foreground and middle ground, mostly in white and cream saris, some with orange garments and rudraksha-style beaded necklaces, with hair in buns and braids. A few men in orange robes sit at the left edge near speakers. The scene suggests a session with devotees, with the seated man in the central role of teacher. Some clothing is white, some saffron, and flower garlands are red and white.
