A wide photograph inside a large white tent during a person Spurana program, showing a dense crowd of people standing in rows with white cloth bands tied across their foreheads. Most wear white shirts and white dhotis or trousers, with some in light colours, and many have garlands or lanyards. In the left foreground, a figure in a saffron-orange robe with long swept-back hair stands near a yellow drape and a blue carpeted stage edge, with a cooler unit beside them. Blue backdrop draping and floral decorations with framed portraits are visible at the back. Visible people number in the hundreds, so the scene counts as 100+.
