A large indoor hall filled with seated devotees, most dressed in white with white headbands tied over their eyes. Many wear rudraksha-style beaded necklaces and some hold their hands together in prayer. They sit on colourful striped woven mats and floor cushions in rows facing forward. Above them hang tall decorative banners with yellow, orange and geometric diamond patterns. A few people stand at the back and a man in a teal shirt sits near the centre. The walls show framed pictures and a small wall plaque. The scene appears to be a group meditation or satsang session.
