A large open hall with a wooden lattice roof hosts a convention session. On a raised stage, a seated figure in orange robes sits in an ornate cream-and-gold throne chair before a lilac draped backdrop. A seated audience of many people, mostly in white and pastel clothes, fills the foreground, with a few orange-clad attendees among them. Potted tropical plants, yellow marigold garlands and white stage drapes frame the stage, and two blank projection screens flank it. The figure is seated on a throne with a microphone; the sign on the backdrop reads Nithyananda Spurana Ashram, consistent with a probable Swamiji depiction in an orange-robed, throne-seated appearance.
