Overhead view of a large hall filled with hundreds of seated participants, mostly men in white shirts and dhotis and women in colourful saris, all wearing white head coverings. Two figures in orange robes stand on a blue aisle carpet between the seated groups, one near the centre and one nearer the stage. The stage at the top right has yellow and pink drapery and a banner, and an announcement board is visible at upper left. Red and green striped mats cover the floor, and the participants sit in rows facing the front. Looks like a kalpataru workshop session in progress.
