A smiling man in saffron-orange robes and a matching orange turban with a round gold brooch stands at center, holding a tall trident-topped staff in his left hand and wearing layered beaded necklaces, a dark rudraksha mala and a gold pendant. Behind him a group of devotees in warm blue and grey jackets, woolen caps and orange scarves stand on a cold, barren hillside; a white van and a pale-grey conical mountain rise in the background. The scene reads as a Kailash pilgrimage gathering. Photo credit overlay reads Nithyananda Paramashivam
