A large seated audience fills a tented hall with colourful striped mats on the floor and bunting, paper lanterns and hanging decorations on the ceiling. Participants wear mostly white kurtas and robes, with some in orange, saffron, purple and green clothing, many wearing name badges on lanyards. Several people in the front rows sit cross-legged with eyes closed or attentive, and a camera crew with a boom and tripod stands at the far back of the hall near the stage area.
