Two people sit cross-legged on a cream mat at microphone stands during a recitation or satsang. On the left, a woman in an orange sari with a maroon border, a rudraksha mala, a small white tilak on her forehead and a gold bangle reads from a ring binder while gesturing with her hands. On the right, a man bare-chested except for a white dhoti with a gold border and a white shawl draped over his shoulder, wearing beaded rudraksha malas and a red pendant, reads from papers held on his lap and gestures with his hands. Behind them stand a brass lamp stand, a potted plant and a pink-and-green painted wall.
