A seated figure in orange robes sits on an ornate gold throne with red cushions, hands pressed together in greeting, under a white inflated canopy. Behind him a large orange banner shows a smiling man in an orange turban and red forehead mark, with Tamil text reading 'Paramahamsa Nithyananda' and 'Dhyana Satsangam' alongside a temple tower and a lamp motif. In front, a gold-plated deity murti stands on a gold-plated stand, next to a smaller figure draped in red cloth, with a metal bowl and green leaves below. The seated figure wears saffron clothing and a gold necklace, and the scene shows a satsang setting. Only the visible seated figure is a physical person; the banner portrait is printed.
