A large hall filled with a crowd of seated women and some men in white clothing, many wearing white headbands or blindfolds across their eyes, sitting on striped red and orange mats in rows. Several women wear rudraksha-style beaded necklaces and white saris with coloured borders, and some have hands pressed together in prayer. Tall white metal truss frames, hanging woven banners in red, orange and black, and a framed portrait in the upper right corner mark the venue. A small speaker stand and a few standing figures in orange and white are at the side near the front.

Above the crowd hangs a red banner with yellow and white lettering and a portrait, with green palm plants and white roof panels overhead.
