A large tented hall with a green floor and maroon swags along the ceiling holds a dense crowd of hundreds of seated participants, mostly men in white shirts and white dhotis or light trousers, each wearing a white blindfold band across the eyes as in a blindfolded meditation exercise. Some wear shirts in blue or brown tones. Name badge lanyards hang from many necks. At the far right, a cameraman stands behind a camera on a tripod near the stage, and a speaker or instructor in white stands at the front. Hanging banners and a purple bird logo are visible at the top left and top right corners.
