A seated person in orange saffron robes holds a microphone and sits on a flower-strewn platform beneath a colourful striped umbrella with fringed tassels, its panels reading "Nithyapeetham" with bird motifs. The person wears a white and red floral garland, a red bindi, and has long dark hair falling past the shoulders, with green hills and palm fronds behind. Beside them, a framed portrait labelled "Paramahamsa Nithyananda" shows a figure in orange with pink and white flower garlands and a beaded necklace. Marigold and rose petals cover the foreground.

Outdoors on a hillside with green shrubs and a rocky slope behind, a man with long dark hair and a red bindi sits cross-legged on a white-draped platform holding a microphone during a discourse. He wears a saffron-orange sleeveless garment and a white and red flower garland. Behind him a portrait labelled "NithyanandaPeetam" shows a seated figure in orange robes and a beaded necklace, framed by pink and red flower garlands. A colourful striped canopy with bird motifs and tassels shades the setup, and a palm frond and flower offerings lie in the foreground. A figure in white with an orange shawl stands at the right edge.

Behind him is a green, red and blue canopy with gold embroidery and the partly visible word 'Nithyanapeeh'. Rose petals cover the platform, and garlands lie at the right edge. Several people in orange and white clothes sit on the ground in the background among palm fronds, and a temple gopuram and hillside appear in the distance.

Beside him a portrait in a frame, also garlanded with pink and white flowers, shows a similar figure in orange with a rudraksha mala. Two colourful umbrella canopies with tasselled fringes stand on either side, and the ground is strewn with pink petals and marigold-style garlands.
