Nithyanandapedia
A photograph of a Nithyananda Dhyanapeetam hall with a tented ceiling hung with colourful striped cylindrical banners. On a raised red-carpeted stage, a row of children and teens in white clothes sit cross-legged, one boy in a black vest with gold trim and another in a white kurta with a long pendant necklace. Behind them a large red backdrop shows a portrait of a smiling man with an orange turban, labelled with partial Nithyananda-style lettering. Seated audience members in white, some in yellow and orange, fill the floor in front of the stage, many wearing glasses or kumkum-marked foreheads. The scene resembles a satsang or meditation session with delegates listening.
