A large hall with a barrel-vaulted metal roof and blue walls is filled with children seated on mats on the floor, facing a raised dais at the far end. On the dais, a figure in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne beneath a tall dark draped backdrop with a large portrait. Two framed portraits of a smiling figure in a white turban and white robes hang on the side walls. A standing attendant in white clothes stands near the dais, and a second attendant in white is at the left side near a screen showing a close-up image of a long-haired person in red. Several children wear white shirts, orange and yellow outfits, and floral dresses. Lights are arranged in a row across the top of the back wall.
