Photo taken from behind a large seated audience in a hotel ballroom, looking toward the front. In the centre, a standing figure wears a draped red-orange cloth and a dark wrapped headdress, with a rudraksha-style necklace visible, and stands beside a brown leather chair with a red-and-gold cushion. A trident stands to the left. Behind the figure, a large banner reads Nithyananda Vedic Arts, and a tall framed white and red silk hanging shows a deity murti. Many attendees in white and red ritual clothing and lanyards sit in rows, with some men in dark shirts and women in saris and kurtas.

A screen above the stage shows a close-up of a similar figure with hands joined in front of an ornate red and gold backdrop. A banner reads 'Nithyananda Sacred Arts' and a saffron hanging with a deity print is on the right wall. Audience members wear white, pink, saffron and orange clothing; many have their backs to the camera. The a person cues are the long swept-back hair, bare upper body and ceremonial setting, so the figure is identified as a person seated on stage.2015-12-12December 10 20152015-12-10December 12 20152015-12-12December 09 20152015-12-09December 09 20152015-12-09December 11 20152015-12-11
