Outdoor photo at a healing camp. A man in an orange saffron shawl and orange dhoti stands centre, wearing a large garland of white and red flowers and sandals, smiling. Around him, men in white kurtas and dhotis stand with hands folded or reaching toward him; one on the left wears an orange shawl and a lanyard, and another on the right wears a rudraksha mala. A tall white banner on the right with a large heading and Kannada text advertises a Time-based healing event. Overcast sky, a bare field and a stage backdrop behind. The page does not confirm a person's presence, and the central figure's appearance is not distinctive enough to name him, so the role is described only as a garlanded man in saffron.

Outdoor street scene in front of a large blue billboard reading "Nithyananda Dhyanapeetam Mysore" with a portrait labelled "Paramahamsa Nithyananda" showing a smiling figure in an orange turban and orange robes; the billboard is bordered with yellow marigold garlands and colourful flowers. In front, an orange-robed figure with long dark hair wears a white flower garland and stands among a group of devotees. A man in a black vest and white shirt reaches out a hand in greeting, a woman in white holds a brass plate of fruit and flowers, and others stand with palms pressed together in anjali. A woman on the right in a green shawl and white top also joins palms. Trees and palm fronds fill the background.

Outdoor stage under a white tent with a red carpet. A figure in orange robes with long dark hair sits on a zebra-striped throne decorated with a garland of marigolds and yellow flowers. Devotees in white and cream traditional dress, some with braided hair, stand in a line before the throne with hands joined or offerings in hand. A backdrop shows portraits of many people in circular frames above a banner in Kannada reading an 'Ananda' celebration with the date 30 December, and a large photo of a deity on the right. Men in white kurtas and shirts stand at the right edge, with a crowd gathered around the stage.

Outdoor procession on a dirt path lined with palm trees and a thatched hut, with a crowd of many white-clad devotees. A man in the centre wears an orange robe and a large red and multicoloured flower garland, smiling and walking barefoot-style in sandals. Beside him a bearded man in an orange robe and a gold beaded necklace walks, and several men in white kurtas and yellow shawls carry tall wooden poles topped with a decorated ornamental banner and an embroidered yellow-and-red canopy. A woman in the foreground wears a yellow shawl and a white forehead mark. A signboard behind reads Nithyananda Dhyanapeetam, and the image is a photo of a ritual procession with a ratha-style parade.
