A photograph of an indoor session in a thatched-roof hall with white walls and orange draped curtains. A seated speaker in white clothes sits in a beige armchair at the right beside a microphone stand and a framed portrait of a woman in orange. Several rows of seated attendees in plastic chairs face him, including men in white dhotis and shirts, one in a maroon top, and a child in front. A wooden podium stands center, with a projected banner showing a diagram. Orange and multicoloured garlands hang along the ceiling, and a vase of orange flowers sits on a side table.

A photograph of a seated audience in plastic chairs facing a raised orange-carpeted platform inside a white-walled hall with orange and white striped curtains and orange and multicoloured garland decorations overhead. On the platform, a person in white clothing with a yellow garment sits in an ornate cream armchair before a microphone stand, a framed portrait and a small vase of flowers beside them. Behind the audience hangs a blue banner titled How the Mind works. The audience includes women in saris and men in white shirts, some with a visible neckchain. A blue-bordered mat on the platform bears the text Nithyananda Dhyanapeetam.

Behind him a framed portrait shows a seated figure in orange robes, and a blue wall chart depicts a white human figure with colored energy centres. Audience members sit on white plastic chairs and on a striped mat: a woman in a peach and navy sari in the foreground, a woman in a patterned top, a woman in a pink sari at right, and men in white shirts and dhotis at left. Two men sit in chairs at the far left by a window, and a small framed image hangs on the left wall. The scene resembles a satsang or discourse. Four to six visible people are present.

A seated teacher in saffron-orange robes with a white dhoti and a gold-beaded necklace sits on a low platform in a bare whitewashed hall with a corrugated metal roof.

Beside him stands a white chart titled 7 Chakras Chart showing a blue human figure with seven coloured chakra circles along the spine, and a framed portrait labelled with a name hangs on the orange backdrop. A colourful woven hanging with red, yellow and blue motifs hangs from the ceiling on the right.

A photograph of a seated audience facing the front of a plain hall with cream walls, ceiling fans and fluorescent tubes. A speaker in orange robes and an orange head covering sits at a draped table with a microphone stand, in front of a framed image of a seated saffron-robed figure. Attendees in white clothes sit on white plastic chairs on a patterned floor mat, some holding paper. On the left wall hangs a blue banner with a diagram of a standing white human figure showing energy points. Colorful tinsel decorations hang from the ceiling.

A seated congregation in white clothes listens to a teacher in orange robes on a raised platform in a bright hall with a corrugated roof and bamboo rafters. Behind the teacher hangs an orange cloth with a framed picture and garlands, and a white chair stands beside. Yellow and blue decorative banners hang from the ceiling. Devotees sit cross-legged on mats while women in white saris and a girl with a braid sit to the right. A ceiling fan and a loudspeaker are visible at the left. The scene suggests a satsang at a Kodikkan Ratha Yatra stop. The teacher's appearance is not clear enough to confirm identity.
