A large hall packed with seated devotees in white clothes and orange-red shawls or garlands, many with white and red marks on their foreheads, sitting on the floor in rows facing a stage. A few standing figures move through the crowd, one in white with a white shawl near the centre. Two large screens flank a dark red curtain on the stage, and ornate gold-coloured panels decorate the side walls with framed pictures above. The setting appears to be a satsang or initiation gathering. No single presenter is clearly identifiable from appearance.
