Large indoor hall with pale walls and a dark projection screen on the far wall, filled with seated devotees on green carpet aisles. Many participants wear white blindfold-style headbands over their eyes, and most are in white or light clothing, with some in orange, red and yellow saris. In the foreground centre, a figure with long dark hair wears a flowing saffron-orange robe and stands facing away from the camera toward the audience. A woman in a yellow sari stands near the left wall and a figure in white stands at the far right. The scene suggests a large satsang or meditation session with hundreds of attendees, though the exact count is hard to confirm and the crowd fills most of the frame.
