A large seated gathering of devotees fills a tented hall, most with palms pressed to their ears in a meditative posture. Many wear white kurtas and dhotis, while others wear saffron shawls or yellow scarves draped over their shoulders. Strings of colourful festive banners hang from the tent ceiling above them. At the back, a camera on a tripod and a small framed portrait on the stage area are visible, with a figure in orange near the left edge. The crowd spans many rows, with heads and shoulders packed closely together across the frame.
