Many wear white saris and white kurtas, with some in pink, red, and orange-striped garments, and several have long braids and dark hair. Some smile or laugh while looking toward the stage. Behind them, two standing men in white kurtas with saffron-orange shawls film the event, one operating a video camera on a tripod. Large framed portraits hang on the wall above the crowd, and hanging orange lanterns decorate the ceiling.

Foreground: a woman with a red bindi and a young woman wearing an orange headband. Several women wear orange or saffron head bands and sindoor or vibhuti marks on their foreheads. A woman in a red-and-orange sari sits near the centre, while others raise hands in greeting or clasp palms. Overhead, orange and white banners hang near the ceiling. No a person candidate is clearly visible in the frame, so the figure of the Master is not depicted here.
