Night outdoor event at a Nithyananda Dhyanapeetam stage with a red banner in Tamil reading the institution name. Behind the stage hangs a large banner showing a portrait of a man with an orange-saffron turban and a vibhuti-marked forehead, beside a golden throne-like canopy and temple towers. Several people in the foreground walk past with backs turned: a man in a striped shirt, women in a purple sari, a white salwar set with flowers in hair, and a woman in red sari. Rows of white plastic chairs fill the audience area under stage lights, and large black speakers stand at right.
