Outdoor procession under trees beneath a green signboard reading NITHYANANDA TV LIVE. A central figure in a rust-red dhoti and wrap wears a large red and white bead garland, a heavy gold pendant necklace, and a tall dark topknot, walking on a cloth-covered path. Around him, devotees in white dhotis with gold borders and rudraksha malas carry a brass tray of offerings and a long staff with a red-and-gold flag. Women in orange and rust saris stand alongside, one carrying a small brass vessel. Several ceremonial banners with red and orange panels rise behind the group.

A procession on a dirt path through trees. A central man wears a dark-red sanyasi robe, a red-and-white garland, heavy gold necklaces and a tall dark hair bun with a gold ornament; he walks with hands folded, and the page places a person at this event, but his appearance gives only moderate cues, so this is marked unsure. Around him, men in white dhotis with gold borders and orange-robed attendants wear rudraksha malas.
