A large indoor hall with white walls, exposed steel roof trusses and ceiling fans hosts a seated gathering of many devotees on woven mats. Most wear white ritual clothing, with yellow lanyards and name badges, and several wear rudraksha malas. A few women in saffron, green and blue saris sit or stand toward the right, and a man in an orange robe sits at left. Mats hold banana leaves and small brass vessels. Standing figures at the back watch the proceedings, and a small framed red and white banner hangs on the right wall. No figure with distinctive a person cues is clearly visible, so the identity is unsure.
