Night-time photograph of an outdoor camp stall at a Kumbamela event in Mandya, Karnataka. A canopy strung with coloured fairy lights is hung with a banner reading Nithyananda Dhyanapeetam Mahasamsthana, Bidadi. Two large printed posters flank the stall, one showing a smiling woman in orange clothing and the other a portrait in orange with Kannada text. A standing man in white dhoti and shirt, wearing a yellow lanyard, stands at the left edge in front of a poster. Several people in orange and white clothes gather around tables under the canopy, including a child in the foreground. Ground is dry and dusty, with lamps lighting the scene.

Night photo of an outdoor stall under a tent at a Kumbamela event in Mandya, Karnataka. Strings of multicoloured fairy lights hang under an orange canopy. Banners read Nithyananda Dhyanapeetham Mahasamstanam and Nithyananda Galleria, with a large poster showing a smiling woman in orange, and a side banner reading Living Enlightenment. A few people stand at white-draped tables, including a man in white kurta with a yellow scarf and a woman in orange sari. A small child in red and yellow clothing sits at the lower left edge, and red flags flutter at the tent corners.

A blue banner shows a portrait labelled "Paramahamsa Nithyananda" wearing an orange turban and orange garments, with Kannada and English text reading Nithyananda Dhyanapeetam Mahasamsthana, Bidadi. Several people stand at the counter: a bare-chested man in a striped lungi, a man in a white shirt, a woman in a pink-orange sari and another woman in a white sari.

Outdoor photo of a open-sided event tent with a red and yellow striped canopy set on a dirt ground. A tall vertical banner on the right shows a standing figure in saffron-orange robes, a saffron head wrap, and a rudraksha mala, with hands folded and one finger raised, in front of a tree trunk; this is a printed banner depiction. Two men in white kurtas stand under the tent near steel pots and cooking vessels, and a person in orange clothing stands at the right edge. A banner across the top reads Nithyananda Dhyanapeetam Welcomes you with a portrait labelled Paramahamsa Nithyananda in a white turban and a smaller image of a deity murti. Two white hanging panels below carry Kannada text and photos. Some people are visible under the tent, so the physical people count is 2-5.
