A photograph of a seated audience facing a raised stage in a large hall with a white ceiling draped in cloth and hanging colourful striped pillars with yellow fringed tassels. On the stage, a figure in orange-saffron robes sits on a cream armchair in front of a red and blue backdrop with a banner reading Yoga Sutras. A projection screen shows a large image of a figure. The audience of rows of people sits on black plastic chairs, mostly in white and light shirts, some men in white dhotis, many heads visible from behind. The seated figure on stage is an appearance-based candidate only with unsure cues, and the scene shows a discourse session.
