A photograph of a seated congregation in a bare hall with pale walls and tiled floor. Many devotees sit cross-legged on saffron and orange cloth, facing toward the front. Women wear orange salwar kameez and white saris with borders, and monastics in saffron and maroon robes with shaved heads and rudraksha malas sit in the rows. A microphone rests on the floor near a striped purple and blue cloth. Behind them stand a saffron cloth hanging, a red-draped seat and a gilded low table. Several sannyasis sit in the back row.
