A photograph of two men seated in carved dark wooden armchairs in front of a yellow wall decorated with pink and white flowers and palm fronds. On the right, a man in an orange saffron robe and an orange turban, with long dark hair, sits with palms pressed together in namaskar, appearing to speak into a microphone; the appearance-based cues are a saffron turban and saffron robes, so this is a probable Swamiji candidate present in person. On the left, a smiling man in a blue collared shirt and white dhoti sits with his hands folded. A glass table with a printed name placard lies in the foreground. The placard is in Tamil script, readable as Paramahamsa Nithyananda, and an adjacent placard is partially visible.
