A seated man with long dark hair, wearing a cream embroidered silk kurta with gold detailing, rests one hand on the head of a kneeling man in a grey short-sleeved polo shirt. The kneeling man presses his palms together in anjali near a white-draped table. Behind them, a red and gold draped backdrop shows a large portrait labelled with a Nithyananda name, partly visible. Red roses, carnations and green foliage sit in a vase at left, and a silver tray with papers lies at right. The setting appears to be a seminar stage.
