Nithyanandapedia
A stage event with a large framed deity murti behind, adorned with garlands of marigold and red flowers and a long beaded necklace. In the centre, a man in a white cap, grey waistcoat and light shirt holds two books or CDs with glossy covers. To the right, a figure in a saffron-orange robe and saffron turban with a long beaded mala stands and gestures toward him; the appearance cues are a saffron turban, long dark hair, orange robe and mala, so this is a probable Swamiji candidate in person. Seated at left in a white shirt is an older man beside a gold-and-red ornate throne chair. Water bottles, floral garlands and name placards sit on the table in front, and a printed backdrop reads Peetham with Nithyananda-related text.
