A large crowd of devotees dressed in white sits cross-legged on the floor of a white tented hall during a session. Rows of seated people fill the foreground and middle ground, many with heads bowed or facing forward toward a raised stage at the far end. On the stage, a figure sits on an ornate golden throne in front of a red backdrop, flanked by small attendants. Tall decorative hanging banners in yellow, blue and red with geometric and elephant motifs line the ceiling, and speakers hang from the tent frame. The scene conveys an organised satsang or yoga meeting.
