A photograph of a shrine room with a large ornate gold throne (peetha) set against a dark textured wall. A framed photograph on the throne shows a smiling man in orange robes with a white flower garland, seated with his right hand raised in blessing before a tree trunk, labelled "Paramahamsa Nithyananda" on the print. The throne has gold lion figures, a white tiger-skin cloth, and hanging brass oil lamps and bells. In front, four people in orange-brown clothes sit on the floor on the left and centre: one man with his palms joined and a shaved head, and women in rust-coloured saris with gold borders, with a gold altar table bearing flowers. Lit oil lamps stand at the sides. The painted doorway is yellow, red and blue.
