A photograph of a dimly lit interior doorway in a wooden-panelled hall. A man in a maroon-red robe with a dark rudraksha-style mala, with a tilak on his forehead and long swept-back dark hair, stands in the doorway smiling, appearing to be a probable Swamiji (Nithyananda Paramashivam) by appearance, with saffron-red robe and rudraksha mala cues. Beside him stands a young man in white dhoti with a yellow-bordered shawl, a long rudraksha mala and a walking staff. On the left, a woman in a red sari is partly turned away, and another woman is visible at the far right edge of the doorway. A blurred golden-edged object sits in the foreground.

In the centre-right, a smiling bearded man with long swept-back dark hair, wearing a rust-orange shawl draped over his shoulders and an orange dhoti, with a long rudraksha mala around his neck, walks forward with his hands at his sides. Behind him in an open doorway stands a man in a white dhoti with gold borders and a bare upper body, holding a rudraksha mala and a small device. On the left foreground, a woman in a white and multicolour striped cloth faces away, and a person in white bows low at the bottom. The visible scene shows roughly four people.

A man with long swept-back hair, rudraksha malas across his chest and a reddish-maroon wrap with an orange-gold border, smiles and gestures with one hand toward a woman in a green blouse and dark saree who stands at the doorway. Beside him a woman in a green-and-yellow saree holds a garland, and two men stand at the right, one in a blue checked shirt and one in a white kurta with a rudraksha mala. The appearance of the central man with a maroon wrap, rudraksha and swept-back hair is consistent with a person candidate on a house visit, so the presence is uncertain. Several people are visible in the scene.2014-07-07August 17 20122012-08-17July 18 20162016-07-18May 21 20122012-05-21
