A seated audience of devotees on orange and blue mats faces a raised stage in a white-ceilinged hall with maroon velvet drapes trimmed in gold. On an orange armchair at the centre, a figure in orange robes sits in front of a small table with flowers. The audience is split into two groups: on the left, rows of men in white clothes sit cross-legged; on the right, women in white saris sit beside a bald man in orange robes and a white garment with an orange shawl. A whiteboard stands at the right edge, and fans hang from the ceiling.
