Four women sit in a row on chairs with palms pressed together in anjali mudra, eyes closed, in a dimly lit hall. The woman on the far left wears an orange sari and bangles; the next two wear white saris with gold borders, one with an orange shawl and one with a yellow shawl and a tilak on her forehead; the far right woman wears a white sari with a yellow shawl and a vertical tilak. A framed portrait of a woman garlanded with flowers appears in the background, and a small blue cloth sits on a lap. Some attendees appear to be in a satsang or prayer setting.

From left, a woman in a white kurta and white dhoti-style skirt, an older woman with short grey hair in a white sari with a red-edged shawl, a woman in a white sari with a dark shawl and beaded bangles, a younger woman in a white and gold-embroidered kurta with a white tilak on her forehead, and a woman in a pink sari with gold bangles and glasses.

A street procession of devotees dressed mostly in white. In the centre, a woman in white with a rudraksha mala holds a framed printed portrait of a seated figure in orange robes with a white flower garland, gesturing with raised hand, in front of a tree trunk; the caption reads PARAMAHAMSA NITHYANANDA. Beside her, another woman in white holds a wooden tray decorated with yellow flowers and blue rosettes. Several people nearby have palms pressed together in anjali, and a man on the right wears a white shirt with an orange shawl. Above the crowd, a decorated palanquin with yellow flowers, red and green drapery and a kalasha-like top is carried in the background. A camera operator stands on the right, and palm trees and a concrete wall frame the dusty road.

Behind them more women in white and yellow saris, and a black speaker stands at the right edge. A large map board and a red-and-white painted wall appear in the background, with a row of stone pillars at the right.
