A newly built two-storey ashram building with orange-red brick walls, a dark metal roof, and small ornamental finials along the parapet. An orange saffron flag flies from the roof. In the foreground, a bare dirt yard holds a stack of loose bricks, and a red-and-yellow patterned canopy stands on poles in front of the entrance. Two painted decorative pillars in blue, yellow and red flank the doorway, and a table with glasses and water bottles sits under the canopy. A seated man in white shirt and light trousers sits on a chair at the right edge. The scene looks like an ashram under construction.
