A photograph of a large seated gathering of devotees on a mat inside a white tent-like hall, many with palms pressed together in namaste or raised in gestures of devotion. Most wear white clothes; women wear white sarees, one in a yellow and blue saree, another in a green patterned top, and one in an orange shawl. Colourful woven hangings with orange tassels hang from the tent roof, and white plastic chairs stand at the back. Several people with grey and white hair sit near the front. No single leader is clearly visible in the frame, and no person is identified as a person.
