Nithyanandapedia
A night-time temple procession at the Nithyananda Dhyanapeetam ashram. In the foreground, an ornate golden ratha-style float carries a deity murti dressed in red and garlanded with white and pink flower strands, with colourful tassels hanging from its canopy. Behind it, a smaller gold-and-red palanquin is mounted on a red tractor, and a man in white stands beside it. Several men in light shirts and white dhotis stand at the left edge. Palm trees and a bright signboard showing a map, labelled Nithyananda Dhyanapeetam, form the backdrop. No a person candidate is clearly visible in the frame.
