A seated man sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne (peetha) with carved lion-like armrests and a tall gilded back, on a gold-trimmed platform. He wears an orange-saffron dhoti and shawl, a long garland of flowers, a rudraksha-style necklace, bangles, and has a red bindi and sacred marks on his forehead. A large orange-turbaned portrait of a smiling man with a red bindi is printed on the backdrop behind him, beside a red-draped valance and two floral arrangements in tall gilded urns. Printed Tamil text on the backdrop reads a phrase with the name Nithyananda, and a gold lamp hangs from the top. Microphones stand at the left edge of the stage. The seated man has distinctive saffron clothing, garland and rudraksha-style adornment, consistent with the page's a person reference, though his features are not clearly confirmed.
