A large tented hall filled with seated devotees in white clothes, many in white shirts and mundus, with women in white, cream and yellow saris and salwars, facing a stage at the far end. A standing man in a white shirt with a rudraksha mala at the left foreground faces the crowd. Colourful hanging cylindrical banners with yellow, red and blue patterns decorate the ceiling. A maroon curtain backs the stage, where a figure in orange clothing and a few other people stand near garlands and a floral decoration, and a screen is visible. The scene suggests a satsang-style gathering, with the stage figures too small and distant to assess reliably.
