Nithyanandapedia
A decorated shrine with a white bull (Nandi) carrying a deity pair seated on its back: a male deity in a red turban and gold ornaments, and a female deity in a dark blue and pink sari with a crown. Both are garlanded with yellow, orange, red and purple flowers, and a large floral arch frames them. Below, a framed portrait labelled "Paramahamsa Nithyananda" wears a white-and-red flower garland. A person in saffron-orange clothing stands at the lower right, facing the shrine. Carved grey stone pillars, hanging rudraksha-style garlands, orange cloth drapes and brass lamps surround the scene.
