A large tented hall filled with a dense crowd of seated devotees facing a central red-and-silver throne. A man with a red-and-white turban and saffron-orange clothing sits on the throne, wearing beaded necklaces and rudraksha-style beads, with a small white object and microphone at his side. Hanging lanterns and decorative tassels in orange, red and blue decorate the ceiling, and white drapes and red curtains frame the stage. Two large screens show a close-up of the same figure. Many participants in colourful saris, kurtas and white clothes sit on the floor and on chairs, some with hands raised or clasped. The scene suggests a large satsang or discourse gathering.
