Photo of a large indoor convention hall under a white tent canopy with blue-lit ceiling fans and lamps. A dense audience of many dozens of people, mostly women in white, cream and pastel saris, sits on the floor with hands folded or raised in greeting. On a blue-carpeted stage at right, a standing figure in saffron-orange robes and an orange turban gestures toward the crowd, while a second man in white stands beside a white-draped table holding a bouquet of yellow flowers.
