A large indoor hall with patterned gold-and-brown carpet shows a dense seated assembly of devotees in white clothing with red shawls draped over their shoulders. Many wear black blindfolds, and several sit in rows on the floor facing a low black-draped table with a video camera on a tripod nearby. A woman in an orange-brown outfit with a mala sits cross-legged at the front, and a grey-haired man in white sits in the foreground. Others stand in the background among blue-draped tables and chairs. No individual can be confirmed as a person from this view, so the scene is described by roles and clothing only.
