A large, old banyan tree with dense aerial roots and spreading branches dominates an outdoor courtyard at dusk. Its trunk and hanging roots form a shaded canopy over a paved path with painted yellow and white lane lines. At the right edge, a seated deity murti stands beside a red-draped structure, with a white plastic chair in the foreground and a few small lights glowing. No people are visible.

A large, sprawling banyan tree dominates the frame, its many thick aerial roots and spreading branches covering a shaded courtyard. At the base of the tree on the right, a black stone deity murti or Shiva lingam sits draped with a green cloth and marked with yellow and red ornamentation, with red offering flowers piled in front. Several people stand around the tree: a man in a white shirt on the right near the shrine, a woman in a green sari on the far left, and a few other figures in saris and dhotis in the middle distance.

A large banyan tree with many hanging aerial roots and thick buttress trunks dominates the frame. Several people in white ritual clothing stand at its base among the roots: two men in white dhoti and shirt with shaved or close-cropped heads, and a woman in a white top with a backpack and yellow pants who is taking a photograph. To the right, a figure in orange robes stands near a white arch with a photographer, and a woman in white stands beside a tray of orange-red offerings. Reddish earth lies at the tree's base.

A large banyan tree with many hanging aerial roots dominates the scene, its wide, low branches spreading across the frame. The trunk and roots rise from several white-painted circular platforms set in reddish-brown earth, with curved white edging paths winding around them. Thin grey metal poles stand at the right edge beside a dark polished stone surface and a red-and-white decorated base. No people are visible.

A large, spreading banyan tree dominates the frame, with thick grey limbs arching across the image and many hanging aerial roots descending from the branches. Around the base of the trunks are circular white-painted platforms with raised rims, filled with reddish-brown earth. Green leaves fill the upper canopy and a pale sky shows through the gaps. No people are visible in the scene.

A large old banyan tree dominates the frame, its wide spreading limbs and many hanging aerial roots forming a dense canopy over a paved path of rectangular grey stone slabs. A low stone platform or raised bed surrounds the trunk base, and a red-rimmed water basin and a metal rail sit at the right edge. No people are visible; the scene is an outdoor grove setting on the ashram grounds.

A large old banyan tree dominates the frame, its spreading branches and dense green leaves forming a canopy over a sandy earthen enclosure. Many aerial prop roots hang and cluster around a thick central trunk. Near the base of the trunk a single person in white clothing stands among the roots, and a small patch of orange appears at the lower left edge. Low stone or brick edging surrounds the tree's base. Sunlight filters through the foliage onto the open ground.
