A photograph of a seated group on a tiled floor under a pink-pillared open pavilion hung with brass bells, with trees and buildings behind. A long-haired sannyasi in full orange robes stands at centre-right, facing a man in a red top with a rudraksha mala and orange shawl who sits cross-legged at the right edge. Around them, thirty or more devotees in orange shawls sit in rows, many women in orange and pink saris and men in white kurtas; a man in white stands at the back and a figure in yellow robes stands at far right. Several people sit with hands folded or palms together. The scene looks like a satsang or outdoor teaching session. The setting appears to be a Himalayan temple courtyard.
