Outdoor procession with a central figure in a white dhoti and shawl with gold border, wearing a red and white flower garland, layered gold beaded necklaces and a gold pendant, hands pressed together in namaste. Behind him, a golden trident-topped staff and a canopy with tasselled fringe. Flanked by saffron-robed men wearing gold bead necklaces, one with a bearded face and a gold pendant with a gemstone. A man in a white shirt and a bald devotee in orange appear behind. A roadside sign reads Nithyananda Charitable Trust. The central figure's appearance is a person by his long hair, gold ornaments and ceremonial garland, but this is an appearance-based label only.
