Outdoor children's games at the Nithyananda Gurukul courtyard. Several girls in colourful salwar kameez run across a dusty sandy ground marked with white lines, some playing a chasing or relay game around plastic chairs, while women in saris and salwar watch and supervise near the edge. Strings of triangular pennants in pink, blue, yellow and orange stretch across the courtyard above white buildings with corrugated roofs. On the right, a seated audience of children and adults sits on a raised platform beneath a decorated pavilion with a portrait banner reading Nithyananda Gurukul; some adults there wear saffron robes. A palm tree and a fence line the background under an overcast sky.
