Nithyanandapedia
A photograph of a street-side gathering outside a house with green-framed doors and a red-fringed canopy supported by banana stalks. In the foreground, the backs of dark-haired onlookers frame the scene. Central figures press palms together in namaskar: a man in white shirt and glasses, a man with grey hair, and a woman in a pale sari with a red border. A man in a white shirt and watch stands at left with folded hands, and an elderly woman with grey hair sits at right. Several men in white shirts and trousers stand watching from the doorway and roadside, and a bicycle leans against a wall. The scene is a devotee welcome at a home visit.
