A smiling man in a maroon turban adorned with gold and jewelled ornaments sits on an ornate golden peacock-fan throne with red cushioning. He wears a maroon shawl over a bare chest, heavy gold beaded necklaces and a large gold pendant, gold bangles and red-thread wristbands. He holds a white thread stretched between his hands. A person on the left with palms pressed together and another figure at the far left edge are partially visible, with an oil lamp and floral decoration behind. Swamiji (probable): the seated man shows the turban, ornate gold ornaments and gold necklaces associated with the page's Nithyananda identity, and the page says he is present at this satsang event; the identification rests on these appearance cues and is uncertain.
