A large outdoor crowd of devotees gathers on a hillside clearing beside a steel transmission tower and rocky granite outcrops with green trees. Most men wear white shirts and white dhotis, and many women wear white or cream saris with gold borders, some in pink, blue, purple and green. Many people wear rudraksha or bead necklaces. Red plastic chairs are scattered in the foreground, and a white van with a purple-decorated rear stands at the right edge. No figure in the crowd is clearly identifiable as a central presence, and the scene reads as a satsang or darshan gathering.
