In front of the stage, a group sits on orange and red mats: several shaven-headed priests in white dhotis with orange shawls and gold chains chant from texts at a microphone, a woman in white stands at a microphone reading, and women in white, red-bordered and yellow saris sit with hands joined. Brass puja vessels and a small kalasha-like item sit on a rug before them. An electric fan stands at the right edge of the stage.2010-10-21December 28 20122012-12-28A large seated gathering of devotees in white clothing fills a hall, most wearing orange-red shawls draped over their shoulders.
