A large seated audience of women fills an indoor hall, with rows of devotees sitting cross-legged on the floor in saris and salwar kameez. Many wear white, green, orange, pink, yellow and blue garments, along with gold chains, bead malas and ID badges on lanyards. Some have eyes closed or hands joined in meditation. Above them hangs a row of framed portrait banners of robed sages with turbans and white beards against dark blue fabric decorated with flowers. Several portraits show bearded men in saffron and white robes. No single presenter is clearly visible at the front of the hall.
