A stage with red curtains and gold-framed alcoves hosts a seated central figure on a cushioned throne draped in green cloth and garlanded with marigold and rose garlands. The central seated man wears saffron-brown clothing and a white garland. Flanking him are two deity murtis in gold-trimmed arches, one on the left in blue and white garlands and one on the right in orange and pink garlands. In the foreground, a seated audience of around twenty people sits facing the stage, many in orange or saffron robes and some in white dhotis with gold borders. Video cameras on tripods film the scene from the right side. A small banner reads Nithyananda at the top of the stage.
