A seated congregation during a devotional gathering in a bright hall with red curtains, a bookshelf and rows of red chairs at the back. In the foreground, women in white and cream saris and salwar sit cross-legged on mats, several with white or sandalwood forehead markings and rudraksha-style beaded necklaces. A young woman in an orange and cream sari and a woman in an orange shawl with glasses sit nearby, and girls in orange, pink and teal dresses are among the attendees. Brass lamps and small brass vessels sit on a patterned mat in front. No one in the room is clearly identifiable as a specific figure, and the scene shows roughly several dozen seated people.
