A photograph taken inside a large hall with orange and white bunting strung along the ceiling and tubelights overhead. In the foreground, a man in white robes and a light blue turban with long dark hair and beard stands on a raised platform, arm extended toward the crowd. Beside him, a young man in a grey-and-black checked shirt stands watching, and a person in a pink-and-white striped shirt raises a hand in the lower right. Behind them a dense crowd of devotees fills the hall, many in white, cream and colourful saris and kurtas. A standing fan is visible at left. The crowd appears to be gathered for darshan at a convention session.
