Outdoor satsang on a sunny day in an ashram courtyard. A bearded man with long dark hair and bare chest, wearing a rust-red cloth, sits on a light blue upholstered armchair with a microphone stand before him; a silver trident-like staff stands beside him. Behind him hangs a garland of red, yellow and white flowers on a yellow pole. Several women stand in bright orange saris and rudraksha malas; one raises her hand to her head, and another stands with arms folded in a rust-red sari. Brass lamps, a brass kalasha-style vessel and a small table with glasses are in front. Seated devotees in orange and red fill the bottom of the frame with their backs to the camera.
