A large hall packed with seated attendees on striped floor mats in pink, green, blue and purple, many writing in notebooks with pink and yellow paper pads. Most men wear white dhotis and shirts, others wear colourful shirts and kurtas, and some women wear saris. In the foreground a bald elderly man with white hair, a rudraksha mala and a white dhoti sits cross-legged, drawing a sacred vertical mark on his forehead; beside him a man in an orange shawl writes. Backpacks and bags lie among the seated crowd. Framed posters line the upper walls and a deity picture hangs at left.
