A large tented hall filled with a dense crowd of seated devotees on the floor, many in colourful saris, kurtas and salwar kameez. Above them hang rows of multicoloured cylindrical paper lanterns and fan-shaped decorations beneath white draped ceiling fabric. Two large screens display images at the back of the hall, and a small stage area near the centre holds a figure in orange clothing with a few attendants. Several people in orange and red saris are visible near the front, and many sit with small brass items and cups in front of them. The scene is a discourse or satsang gathering with the figure on stage, but the individual on stage is not clearly recognizable.
