Night photograph at a Nithyananda Peetham event in Tiruvannamalai. A large maroon banner in Tamil and English reads the Nithyananda Peetham Tiruvannamalai Aadheenam name, with a cutout depiction on the left showing a bearded figure with a flower garland, a rudraksha-style necklace and a dark robe, smiling and raising one arm. Strings of green and red fairy lights and stage spotlights frame the scene. In the foreground a crowd of devotees stands and moves about, including men in checked and striped shirts, a man in a yellow top and a woman in a red-brown sari. A seated person in white dhoti-style clothing sits at the far left edge.
