A photograph of a hall with an orange-carpeted stage at a Nithyananda Dhyanapeetam gathering. A long red-draped table seats about a dozen saffron-robed sannyasis, some with shaved heads and some with long grey beards, several holding microphones. A standing speaker in an orange robe with long dark hair and a rudraksha mala speaks at a wooden podium beside a laptop and projector. Behind the stage hang maroon swags and a projection screen showing a portrait of a smiling saffron-clad figure with a turban. Garlanded deity murtis line the left wall, and water bottles and printed papers sit on the table in front. An out-of-focus audience member is visible in the foreground.
