A large open-sided hall with a corrugated roof and rusted steel beams hosts a crowded gathering on a teal-green floor. Many people in white and cream clothing stand and move about, with women in saris in orange, pink, yellow and green. A few men wear yellow or orange sashes and a round yellow badge. Framed portraits hang on the pillars, and a red-and-yellow banner is visible at the far end. The scene looks like a convention or satsang hall during an event.
