A large hall filled with a seated audience of women and girls, most in white, pastel and bright sarees and salwar kameez, sitting on colourful striped mats on the floor. In the foreground a woman in a lime-green saree and a girl in a red-and-white top sit closest to the camera; further back, rows of attendees face a stage draped with saffron-orange cloth. Ornamental cylindrical hanging decorations in multicoloured patterns line the ceiling, and overhead fans and lights are visible. Attendees wear name badges. This appears to be a live satsang public talk in an ashram hall.
