A stage at a Tamil-language spiritual satsang event. A large banner behind the stage shows a portrait labelled "Paramahamsa Nithyananda" beside Tamil headline text announcing a dhyana satsangam on the 25th and 26th. Four ornate gold-and-white thrones draped with white cloths sit on a green-covered platform, each with garlands and water bottles. In the centre, a figure in an orange-saffron robe and orange head wrap sits on a throne, hands together, with long hair visible; the appearance has some cues but is not certain. Beside him a man in white clothes sits on another throne, a woman in a green sari sits to the right, and a man in white sits at the far right. A standing man in a grey shirt stands behind the stage, and a dark silhouette of a seated person or object fills the foreground.
