A large black stone Shivalinga stands in the centre of a rectangular reflecting pool at Nithyananda Dhyanapeetam-style ashram grounds, its yoni-shaped base rising from a red-and-white striped platform in still green water. A rainbow-coloured arch frames the lingam. Red stone terraced steps with rows of potted plants and flowers rise on the left and right, and a red multi-storey building with many windows stands at the upper right. Three figures in white clothing stand at the lower left edge of the pool area near the steps, and a green tree branch hangs in the foreground. Overcast morning light and mist surround the scene.
