Empty gold-and-red ornate throne (peetha) set on a carpet of striped and floral rugs in a plain white-walled room. A framed photograph of a seated figure in orange robes with a white beaded mala, raising one hand and seated before a tree trunk, sits on the throne back, with red cushions and two small boxes flanking it. Above, a large banner shows a smiling woman in orange with a red bindi, and Kannada script reading 'ಕಲ ತರು' (Kalpataru) with the label 'ಪರಮಹಂಸ ನಿತ್ಯಾನಂದರು' (Paramahamsa Nithyananda) and the Nithyananda Dhyanapeetha logo.
