A seated woman with eyes closed and dark hair in a low ponytail receives a head blessing from an older woman in white. The older woman, with grey hair and a long mala, rests her hand on the seated woman's crown. The seated woman wears a pale green patterned top with gold trim, a rudraksha-style bead mala and a small red bindi. Beside them stands a brass lamp stand and a pink lotus flower. Behind them a printed poster shows a smiling man with long dark hair, a red tilak, a beaded necklace and an orange robe, captioned Paramahamsa Nithyananda. The scene suggests a blessing or healing session in a shrine-like room.
