Dozens of seated devotees fill the rows: monastics in saffron and orange robes and attendees in white clothes sit on red floor cushions facing a raised stage. On the stage a central gold-framed deity shrine with painted figures stands between red curtains, and a seated speaker in white is visible at the front. Two projection screens on either side show portrait images. Silver stanchions and a white carpet runway divide the seating; a camera on a tripod records the event. Roughly fifty to sixty people are visible. No individual can be confidently identified as a person from this distance, so the candidate is uncertain.2013-08-03August 23 20142014-08-23August 17 20132013-08-17October 06 20172017-10-06A large indoor hall with white tiled floor and a suspended ceiling with fluorescent lights and ceiling fans.
