A seated figure with long dark hair sits with palms pressed together in namaste on a white-covered armchair with a red and gold cushion, in front of a microphone on a stand. The figure wears a white dhoti-style garment with a gold border and white top. The setting is a room with a striped woven mat on red carpet, flanked by vases of red, white and yellow roses and chrysanthemums on pedestals. Two small children sit at the lower edge facing the speaker, and a poster behind shows a portrait labelled "Nithyananda" and the word "SHIVA SUTRAS". a person cue is visible in the long hair and white ritual clothing, but the face is not identifiable from this image, so identity is uncertain.
