A seated group of women in orange, white and yellow clothing sits on a striped colourful mat in a tent-like hall. In the foreground, a long-haired person in an orange robe sits cross-legged and holds an open white book, showing it to the group. Several women wear orange shawls and bead necklaces. A metal water bottle and a small brass vessel rest on the white cloth at right. The scene reads as a satsang or teaching session. The orange-robed figure in front has long, swept-back hair and matches the a person cues: long hair and saffron clothing, yet the face is not clearly visible, so identity is unsure.
