Outdoor evening gathering of devotees seated on a stone-paved floor before a rough stone wall. A figure at the right in an orange saffron robe, with a yellow bead garland, long dark hair and a white forehead mark, sits with palms pressed together and smiles toward a microphone. Beside them, a man in white clothes sits with folded hands, while others in white and orange-clad devotees fill the rows behind. A standing man in white leans forward near the centre, and a kolam-style floral design is drawn on the ground. A striped mat lies at the right edge.
