Photo of a stage at a convention hall. A woman with long dark hair and a red bindi sits smiling in a gold embroidered top behind a red-draped table, with flower arrangements of orange roses, pink lilies and red blooms on both sides. A large portrait on the left shows a smiling man in a white turban with a dark shawl and ornate gold necklace, labelled "Paramahamsa Sri Nithyananda". A banner on the upper right reads "Spurana Program" and shows a second portrait. A video camera on a tripod and a lit monitor sit in the foreground beside a white pillar, with a red-and-green patterned cloth on the table.

A figure with long dark hair in a gold-patterned tunic and white dhoti sits cross-legged on a white-draped platform, gesturing with one hand. Behind him hangs a black banner reading Dhyana Spurana Program, with a portrait of a smiling man in a yellow turban. Colourful silk drapes, potted orange, pink and white flowers, palm fronds and red and gold cushions decorate the stage. Studio lights stand at either side, and audience members' heads are visible at the bottom edge. A white floor fan stands to the right.2006-04-29April 29 20062006-04-29A seated man with long dark hair and a red bindi sits on a white-draped platform in a gold patterned kurta with a white dhoti-style wrap, smiling and gesturing with both hands. Behind him a black banner reads Spurana Program with a portrait of a man in a turban and ochre clothing, and vases of orange roses and pink flowers stand at the left. Red and gold cushions and a patterned rug complete the stage. Swamiji (probable): the man has long swept-back hair, gold ornate clothing and sits on the central platform, so the appearance cues are moderately distinctive.2006-04-29A seated person in orange saffron robes sits on a white-covered sofa with gold-embroidered cushions, smiling and holding a small white card. A red bindi is visible on the forehead and long dark hair falls over the shoulders. Behind is a large banner showing a portrait labelled "Nithyananda" wearing a cream turban and white kurta, with the printed headline "Nithyananda Spurana Program". Pink and white gladiolus and roses fill a vase, peacock feather fans flank the sofa, and a red and blue drape hangs at the side beside a columned pillar wrapped in string lights. The seated person is the only physical person present.2006-04-23A photograph of a seated speaker on a white-draped sofa at a stage event. The person wears an all-white long kurta with gold-striped border and gold ornamental necklace, sits barefoot on a pink and white flower petal arrangement, and has long dark hair. Gold and orange cushions rest on the sofa. Behind them hangs a large banner reading Nithyananda Spurana Program, with a portrait of a man in a cream turban and white garment. Red and blue draped curtains frame the backdrop, with peacock feather arrangements and pink, red and white flower vases on either side, a pink-draped side table, and a whiteboard at right.

He sits cross-legged on a white-covered sofa with gold cushions, hands resting on a white cloth in his lap, smiling. Behind him hangs a large banner reading "Nithyananda Foundation" and "Nithyananda Spurana Program", with a portrait labelled "Nithyananda" showing a man in a cream turban. Gold and red draped fabric, peacock feathers, and red, white and pink floral arrangements frame the stage, and a pink-draped table with a small lamp stands at left. Swamiji (probable): the seated man wears white robes with gold borders and long dark hair, but the image is consistent with the page's identification only through role and setting, so this is a cautious appearance-based label.2006-04-22April 29 20062006-04-29April 29 20062006-04-29March 25 20062006-03-25Photograph of a seated man in a gold-brown ceremonial garment with a white shawl, raising one hand in greeting at a stage.
