A smiling man with long dark hair sits on an ornate gold and red throne-like seat during a procession, wearing an orange saffron garment and a long garland of white flowers with red and maroon blossoms. He holds a long ceremonial staff topped with an emblem and a sword-like rod in one hand, while the seat is hung with yellow marigold garlands and fringed red, teal and orange canopy tassels. Behind him a colourful red, green and orange banner hangs, and a white vehicle with blue Nithyananda lettering is visible at left alongside a red umbrella. A small crowd member in white stands at the left edge. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and garland cues place him as the seated figure being carried in procession.
