Indoor hall scene at an evening Gurupurnima 2007 gathering, with a banner reading Gurupurnima 2007 on the left. Several dozen orange-robed sannyasis and devotees in white sit in rows on white floor cushions and plastic chairs, many with orange shawls. In the centre-right, a man in an orange robe and orange turban sits with a microphone stand before him, while a figure in white stands at the back near a tripod-mounted camera. Striped cloth hangs from the walls and a golden deity-like stand sits at the left edge. The seated man in the orange turban may be a candidate for a person, though his identity is uncertain from appearance; he is seated and speaking to the assembly.
