A seated audience fills a bright, cream-walled hall during a Dhyana Spurana convention session in Seattle. In the foreground, many attendees sit on the floor in white and pastel clothing, some with bags and water bottles beside them.

At the front, a raised black-draped stage holds a banner reading Dhyana Spurana Convention, flower arrangements, and a seated figure in white at a low ritual table, with a small portrait on the left wall and colourful draped fabrics in orange, green and maroon hanging behind the stage.
