May be a cartoon of 7 people, poster and text that says 'About 10,000 people gathered in Texas in the United States to take part in a collective recitation of the sacred text, Bhagavad Gita, on the occasion of Guru Purnima on Monday. The grand scale of the event marked the first of its kind in the US.'

Spiritual guru Pujya Ganpati Sachidanand led the religious event, which was attended by people of varying age groups.
