Behind him, several monks in orange robes with rudraksha malas stand, one with a shaved head and white tilak; on the right, a figure in white dhoti and shawl holds a gold-coloured ritual staff. A white backdrop is decorated with scattered red flowers and a kalasha-like setting suggests a blessing or darshan moment. Photo credit text on the image reads Nithyananda Paramashivam
