Photograph inside a plain white-walled hall at the Nithyananda Dhyanapeetam, with a yellow floor line. In the foreground, a long-haired man in a flowing saffron-orange robe with a wrap walks barefoot, gesturing with his right hand toward a man in a white head covering, white kurta-style top, white dhoti and white shawl who walks beside him with hands folded. Behind them, glass display cabinets hold framed pictures and objects under a black board with the printed heading "Things Used by Paramahamsa in his young age". Several people in white and saffron-orange clothing stand or walk in the background, and a banner reading "Blissful" and "Nithyananda Dhyanapeetam" hangs on the left wall. The foreground figure shows distinctive long swept-back hair and saffron robes, consistent with a probable Swamiji presence in person.
