A large tented hall filled with hundreds of seated participants on colourful striped mats and cushions, facing a raised stage at the far end. Overhead hang rows of colourful paper lanterns, tassels and pendant decorations. Two large screens display a bearded man in saffron-coloured robes speaking; the stage figure appears in the distance beside a microphone. Many attendees wear black, white and grey clothing, some sitting cross-legged, and water bottles and cups sit on the mats in front. Watermarked archive photo.
