A photograph inside a large orange-and-white tent at a Kumbh Mela camp, with a green carpet and hanging decorative poles. In the centre, a man in an orange shawl and long rudraksha mala holds a brass bell and a small brass vessel, standing in a row of people in orange and maroon robes. Several people stand with palms pressed together in namaste, and a man in white holds a tray of flower petals. In the lower foreground, a tray of rose petals sits in a shallow brass basin. On the right edge, a large life-sized figure in orange robes with a turban and long dark hair, wearing a garland, is viewed from behind, appearing to be a statue or depiction. Roughly twenty physical people are visible.

Photo of a ceremonial darshan inside a hall decorated with orange and white marigold garlands and a canopy. A seated figure in saffron-orange robes, with long hair, a gold necklace and a rudraksha mala, sits on an ornate gold throne with red cushions, holding a pink flower. A kneeling devotee in a gold-and-cream garment and red embroidered shawl bows forward before the throne. A robed attendant in orange stands at right holding a tray of flowers and fruit, and seated devotees in white fill the background.

A seated figure in orange robes sits on a gilded throne with a golden canopy and red cushions, hands pressed together in namaskar with eyes closed. A standing man in orange robes with a red-bordered shawl and shaved head holds a silver lamp with a lit flame and offers it toward the seated figure. Kneeling in white clothes before the throne, a man presses his palms together, and a woman in a white sari with a green border kneels beside him with hands folded. Red and gold draped table cloth, purple orchids, a brass bowl, and water bottles stand nearby. Palm fronds, flower arrangements and stage lights frame a bare hall. The seated figure has long swept-back hair and wears orange clothing, but the visible cues are not distinctive enough to confirm identity.

A photograph inside a decorated tent stage. In the centre, a man in an orange-red robe with a matching cloth draped over his shoulders sits on a red-orange cushioned seat with his head tilted. Beside him on the left, a standing figure in a rust-red robe and a red turban, with a garland, presses palms together in greeting. On the right, a bald man in white clothes with an orange shawl holds up an object near the seated man. Behind them, a framed portrait labelled "Paramahamsa Nithyananda" and an ornate gold shrine arch stand with flower garlands. A man in a white turban and an orange-striped shawl stands behind the portrait, and another man in white with an orange shawl stands at the far right. Several people are visible, and the seated figure is the central focus.

A stage event under a white tent with an ornate golden shrine-like backdrop. On the left, a figure in a red-orange turban and rust-red robe, with a rudraksha mala and gold-toned waist sash, reaches out to clasp the hands of a bald man in a white kurta and orange-gold shawl on the right. Between them, a man in a red-orange robe sits in a cushioned chair, and seated attendants in orange and red garments flank the scene. Floral garlands hang at the left edge. Several people are visible in the background.
