A group photograph on a stage with red curtains and a white floor with yellow marking lines. Behind them a banner reads Nithyananda Meditation Academy, Welcome, Life Bliss Technologies, beside a large portrait of a smiling woman with long dark hair. Seated in front are several saffron-robed monks and a few bare-chested young men wearing saffron lower garments and rudraksha malas. An older man in saffron with a shaved head sits in the centre-right. Behind them thirty-odd people in white clothes with rudraksha malas stand and sit in rows, many raising their hands in greeting or chanting gesture. Brass vessels and a small kalasha sit on the white cloth in front of the seated group.
