A large hall with pink walls and a white draped ceiling, decorated with tall colourful striped pillars with orange tassels. Hundreds of seated devotees fill the floor on red and orange mats, most in white dhoti-style clothing, while a group of orange-robed sannyasis sit in the front rows before brass plates and offering trays. A video screen and monitor stand on the left, and a white dais with steps is in the foreground. Among the orange-robed monastics, no figure can be confidently identified as a person from appearance, so the role is given as sannyasi. The scene resembles a satsang gathering with puja offerings in progress, and the crowd is large.
