A photograph of a large hall with a polished light floor where a group of devotees stand and sit with palms pressed together in namaste. Most wear white or cream clothing, with a few in saffron, yellow and green saris. One person in the foreground bends forward in a full prostration with forehead near the floor. Hanging from the ceiling are tall decorated fabric banners with bird and geometric motifs and orange fringed ends. Red-cushioned chairs line the left side, and a red curtain fills the right edge. No a person candidate is clearly visible in this frame; the hall holds devotees in a satsang-style gathering.
