A large seated audience at a satsang or discourse, viewed from the side across rows of devotees on mats and cushions. Many attendees wear white, saffron and orange kurtas, salwar kameez and saris; a woman in the foreground wears an orange shawl, a woman in the centre wears a blue patterned top, and a woman at right wears a yellow top. Some hold water bottles and papers. Several people have long hair in ponytails or loose, and a few wear glasses. No speaker or central figure is clearly visible in the frame, so no swami candidate is identifiable.
