Nithyanandapedia
A seated man with long swept-back dark hair, a crown-like hair arrangement and a red dot on his forehead sits in a large brown leather throne-style chair with carved wooden arms, palms pressed together in greeting. He wears an orange-red garment over a leopard-print cloth, a long gold and bead necklace, a rudraksha-style mala, gold armbands and a small microphone at his cheek. Behind him hang orange and gold curtains and a banner with a painted figure. Seated devotees in orange and white clothes and glasses fill the foreground and background, some with folded hands, at what appears to be a discourse. Partial text reads Nithyanandapeetham and the copyright line is excluded.
