Rows of devotees sit on orange mats, many dressed in white, with some in orange, yellow and saffron-toned clothing. A tripod-mounted video camera stands at the centre of the room. Behind the seated rows, a golden deity murti and an ornate golden figure stand near floral decorations. Yellow tassel lamps hang from the ceiling. The seated listeners appear attentive during a discourse. No individual can be confidently identified as a person from appearance here, so the speaker's position is not visible.
