A large night-time outdoor gathering of a very large crowd seated on red and blue plastic chairs across an open ground, most people in white clothes with some in coloured saris. Bright floodlights line the field and a lit stage with a red and gold backdrop sits in the distance. A woman in a blue sari walks through the aisle in the foreground. Loudspeakers stand at the left edge beside a tent and palm trees. The scene appears to be a public event or satsang; the crowd is too dense to count individually.
