Four saffron-robed sadhus sit in a row on a stage before an ornate golden shrine with a deity murti of Shiva and Parvati, flanked by kalasha-style pillars and rows of brass oil lamps. The second figure from left wears a saffron-red turban, a gold necklace and rudraksha-style beads, and sits cross-legged with hands on his lap. The man on the far left wears orange robes and a microphone stands before him. Silver tables in front hold marigold garlands and offering plates. Two bearded elders in orange shawls sit beside him, one with long white beard and folded arms. Behind them, another robed figure stands beside a golden throne, with decorated shrines and garland-hung deity figures along the back wall. The setting appears to be a formal assembly or satsang at a festival camp.
