He wears a long dark rudraksha mala and a red tilak on his forehead, with dark hair swept back. Behind him, two women in white and yellow sit in meditation on the ground. Grey stone sculptures of deities, including a cobra-hooded figure, stand among palm trees and a red brick wall. A red sign reads 'This daily is undergoing an intensive energizing process by Paramahamsa Nithyananda for installation in our Vedic temple, New Zealand.'
