A large crowd of devotees sits on white plastic chairs under a white tent decorated with strings of colourful tassels and paper lanterns hanging from the ceiling. Most attendees wear white or light clothing with orange or red shawls, while others wear yellow, pink and green. In the centre, a standing figure in an orange robe with a garland stands before the gathering, facing the audience. Large screens flank the stage area, and a decorated backdrop with cloth draping is visible behind. The scene appears to be a ceremonial initiation gathering.
