A wide photograph of a large indoor hall during a seated satsang gathering, with hundreds of participants sitting on striped woven mats and red carpet. In the foreground, several people in white and light clothing sit with palms pressed together or hands raised, while drummers with large drums and small cymbals-like percussion sit at the lower left and centre. Overhead, orange and white paper lanterns hang beneath white drapery, and three large screens show crowds. The rows of attendees wear saris and white, orange and multicoloured garments. No single figure can be confidently identified as a person, and the people shown are numerous, far more than a hundred, so the count is 100+.
