Large indoor satsang hall with a dense crowd of hundreds seated on red floor mats, many in white, pink, orange and teal clothing. At the front, a figure in orange and saffron robes with a red turban sits on an ornate gold throne holding a tall gold staff; the presence of crown-like headwear, ornate clothing and staff makes this an appearance-based a person. Nearby, white-robed devotees sit beside him. Overhead hang colourful tasselled decorations and pendant lamps; two large screens and a camera on a crane are visible.
