A large seated gathering of men in plain white shirts and white dhotis sits cross-legged on colourful striped mats inside a white tent hall. Many have their hands folded in namaste or held together in prayer, and several wear white lanyard badges. Hanging from the ceiling are long cloth banners in red, blue, white and yellow, and a large yellow lamp shade. Bookshelves and a small framed banner line the back wall. The crowd fills the hall, with the nearest rows in sharp focus and the rear rows receding into the white-clad mass.
