Outdoor evening satsang scene at night. A seated figure in orange robes and an orange turban with long dark hair leans forward, smiling, clasping the hands of a middle-aged man in a white shirt and white dhoti. Around them stand several men in white shirts, a young man in an orange-and-white outfit with an orange shawl and rudraksha mala, and a woman in white with a yellow shawl and a braid, bending forward. Behind them an orange-robed attendant stands near a stage with lights.
