Wide view from the back of a large hall filled with many seated devotees on a polished floor, separated by a row of gold stanchions down the centre aisle. Most are in white traditional dhotis and sarees, some bare-chested men wear rudraksha malas, and a few women wear green, yellow and orange garments. At the far end a decorated stage with purple and gold draping, flowers and a central raised seat holds a distant figure, flanked by red banners and two side screens. Ceiling fans and fluorescent lights hang overhead. The crowd is large and fills the hall.
