Nearly all wear white shirts and white dhoti-style clothing, and many wear rudraksha malas around their necks.

Behind them rows of attendees sit closely together under hanging banners and a fan, with a few wearing white ID badges on lanyards. Several people appear to be meditating with eyes closed. The image shows no clearly identifiable candidate for a person in the visible crowd.
