A framed printed portrait of a smiling man with long dark hair, a red bindi, a white flower garland, and orange robes sits cross-legged before a banyan tree; the portrait is labelled "PARAMAHAMSA NITHYANANDA" along its bottom edge, and the figure is treated as a depiction, not a physical person. In front of the portrait, two tall brass lamp stands, a brass handbell, a brass plate with a coconut, marigold and yellow flowers, a brass oil lamp with a lit flame, a yellow bowl and a red bowl, and a white tray of flower petals rest on a red and gold cloth. No people are physically present.2021-12-27July 08 20102010-07-08February 06 20142014-02-06September 05 20102010-09-05November 02 20072007-11-02Photo 11691392A photograph of a seated priest in white clothes with a yellow shawl performing an aarti with a flame lamp held before his face, while ringing a brass bell with his right hand.

To the right, a framed portrait garlanded with white flowers and orange marigolds shows a figure in saffron robes seated on a cushion, labelled with printed text; that portrait is a depiction.
