A large outdoor congregation seated in white plastic chairs under a white tent with red and white striped poles and red scalloped valances. Most attendees wear white or pale shirts and trousers, with some in blue shirts, a striped shirt and a red-and-blue shirt. Several men wear rudraksha-style beaded necklaces, and some have their hands folded in prayer. The crowd extends far back toward the edge of the tent, with many faces attentive and seated closely together.
