A woman in a pink kurta and pink trousers with a red dupatta stands barefoot on a white stage, speaking into a handheld microphone with her right hand raised. Behind her, an ornate gold throne with red velvet cushions sits before a dark red velvet curtain. A large gold-framed portrait on the throne shows a smiling figure in an orange-saffron turban and orange robe, labelled as a portrait of Paramahamsa Nithyananda. Brass oil lamps with lit flames stand on both sides, and a marigold garland hangs on a silver lamp stand. A red patterned rug lies in front of the throne.

A photograph of a stage set for a seated event. In the foreground, tall brass oil lamps stand on a red cloth-covered platform. Behind them a gilded throne with red velvet cushions is decorated with a floral garland of orange, white and green flowers, and a large painted backdrop shows a golden deity figure with a crown and necklaces beside a tree-filled landscape. To the right, a man with long dark hair and an orange-and-red cloth draped over his body stands on a small white platform beside a gold-and-brass ornament, while a standing fan and white drapery frame the tent. The man is physically present but his face is not clearly visible, so no identification is made from appearance; he is described only by role and dress.

A golden ornate throne-like pedestal in front of dark red draped curtains is the central subject, topped by a large gilded framed portrait of a smiling man with long dark hair, wearing saffron robes and a pearl-like beaded mala, seated before a tree with aerial roots, one hand raised in blessing. The golden base is carved with relief figures and has red lotus flowers and a small offering tray in front. Two tall brass oil lamps with bird-shaped tops stand on either side, and microphone stands are visible. The portrait is a depiction, not a person physically present.
