Wide view of a large hall with a white tiled floor and pink walls, where many people sit in rows on orange and yellow mats. Most wear white dhotis and white shawls, and several shaved-headed men in white sit before small brass plates with oil lamps and offerings. A figure in orange robes sits near the front left, and a small television screen on a stand shows a video image. Colourful striped decorative pillars and white fabric drape the ceiling. Many more seated devotees fill the background, and a few people stand at the side.
