A photograph of a seated discourse in a hall with cream walls. A man in the centre sits on a brown throne-style chair, bare-chested, wearing a dark cap, a saffron wrap, layered beaded necklaces and bead malas, with his hands held together before him. Behind him hangs a large banner reading Nithyanandoham 1008 beside a framed picture of a saffron-clad figure holding a trident, and a tall trident stands to the left. Dozens of seated attendees fill the foreground and sides, many in white clothes with orange and gold stoles, some with orange lanyards. Several people in the front rows face away from the camera. a person: the seated central figure has saffron wrap, rudraksha-style malas and ceremonial necklaces on a throne, so the candidate is in the photo.
