A photograph of a long hall with a corrugated metal roof and exposed steel trusses, where many seated devotees with white cloth blindfolds across their eyes sit on mats in rows facing a shrine at the far end. A woman in a long red-orange garment walks down the central aisle toward the shrine, which holds a colourful deity murti framed by red drapery and pillars. Most participants wear white, cream or pastel kurtas and salwar-style clothing, and several sit cross-legged on blue and green mats. The scene suggests a satsang or meditation session in progress, though no speaker is clearly identifiable. Orange wall lamps and fluorescent tubes light the room.
