Photograph of an empty stage set up for a Nithyananda Dhyanapeetam Life Bliss Program Level 2 session. A golden ornate throne stands centred on a white stage platform, with a framed portrait on its back garlanded with yellow and orange marigold flowers. Behind it hangs a large banner showing a smiling man in an orange turban and saffron clothing beside the printed caption "a person", with the words "life bliss program" and "Level 2" on the pink section. Deep red velvet curtains frame both sides, with stage lights and a ceiling fan overhead. A partial figure of a person sits at the bottom right edge of the frame.2010-02-22February 01 20102010-02-01A photograph of a stage with a large golden throne backed by an arched golden canopy, flanked by golden lion figures on the armrests. A man sits on the throne wearing saffron-orange robes and a rudraksha mala, with a bare upper body visible above the wrap. The stage is raised with a white floor, a patterned red and gold rug in front, and a dark maroon velvet curtain behind. Potted plants with red flowers stand at the edges, and a small speaker and standing fan are at the right. A few people are only partly visible at the bottom edge of the frame. The seated figure appears to be the a person by appearance cues: saffron clothing, a mala and an ornate golden throne.2013-01-29April 07 20122012-04-07A seated person in an orange saffron robe sits on an ornate gold throne with red cushions on a stage draped with orange cloth. The figure has palms pressed together in namaste, with a small offering of flowers at the base of the throne. Behind is a large printed backdrop of a temple shrine with carved pillars, a deity murti with garlands, and a red arch. Maroon velvet curtains frame the left side and a dark curtain the right, with a white cylindrical pedestal beside the throne. The figure's identity is not established by visible cues alone, so the a person value is unsure.2010-10-23August 03 20172017-08-03December 02 20092009-12-02A photograph of a stage set with a deep burgundy velvet curtain behind a large gilded throne with carved red-cushioned seat. A figure in orange robes and a beaded rudraksha-style mala sits on the throne with long dark hair, appearing to look down at something in his hands. Flanking the throne are ornately carved gold pedestals, one holding a small vase of flowers. In front of the stage stand camera tripods and video monitors, and a white pedestal fan stands at right. An orange cloth covers the stage floor, and a few people are partly visible at the lower right edge.2011-01-22August 03 20172017-08-03February 24 20072007-02-24January 19 20132013-01-19A stage set with deep red velvet drapes behind a golden tiered peetha throne. On the throne sits a framed portrait of a seated figure in yellow-orange robes with a beaded necklace, set against a painted tree backdrop. Flower arrangements in orange and pink stand on pillars at either side of the frame, with a red velvet cushion on the throne. Four brass oil lamps with peacock-shaped tops flank the throne, and a small brass offering tray with flowers sits at its base. No people are visible. The portrait is a depiction on a stage, not a person in the scene.2012-05-10
