A large audience of women, mostly in white and cream saris, sits on blue and red plastic chairs under a decorated pandal with yellow and orange drapes and string lights. On a raised red stage, a figure in orange robes and a rudraksha mala sits on a white throne-like chair with a microphone, facing the crowd. Flanking the stage are two white air coolers, a brass oil lamp and small flower arrangements. Behind the stage hangs a banner with a portrait of a smiling woman in orange, reading Nithyananda Dhyanapeetham and Nithyananda Women Foundation, Launch of 108 Women Empowerment Centres. A side board repeats the launch text with a person.
