Night-time outdoor gathering with a man in a red-orange dhoti and matching shawl, long dark hair swept back, a beaded ornate necklace and bangles, hands joined in anjali toward the audience. Foreground shows a figure in white and yellow cloth with a bare back. Behind, a seated audience of many people sits on a light mat, most with hands pressed together in namaste; a woman in a teal sari with a tilak and a few women in dark tops are prominent. The setting appears to be a Phuket, Thailand event, an open-air satsang-style session.

In the centre, a man with a shaved head wearing a white headband stands in a maroon robe with wide gold bands at the waist, a heavy gold necklace and a textured brown-maroon shawl, his arms partly extended as he sings or chants. To his left, a woman in an orange-red sari with glasses and a rudraksha mala presses her palms together in anjali, beside another woman in maroon-and-gold robes doing the same. Behind them, several men in white dhotis and kurtas with rudraksha malas, some with hands folded, stand in a crowd lit faintly by the surrounding darkness.
