Outdoor photograph of a palm-lined courtyard with thatched-roof huts and a tall coconut palm in the centre. Several people in white clothing sit on white plastic chairs at the left, some with dark hair and one with an orange garment, near a small white table. A motorcycle is parked at the right beside a white canvas tent, and a bird flies through the upper centre. A small banner at left reads Nithyananda Flower Stalls, and a partly visible sign at right shows a green graphic.2010-08-10June 12 20102010-06-12Outdoor ashram scene on a sandy yard under coconut palms, with thatched-roof huts behind. On the right, a man with long dark hair sits cross-legged on a low wooden seat wearing a flowing saffron-orange robe, facing left toward a row of seated women in white and yellow-trimmed saris and orange shawls. Ash or ritual residue marks the ground in front of him, and pigeons peck around the sand. A standing man in a white dhoti stands near the huts, and a small girl in orange sits on a mat. A tiered offering area and a seated figure in orange appear beneath a hut, with a plastic chair and motorbike nearby. The setting suggests a satsang or homa gathering.2010-07-08Outdoors on a sandy path under tall coconut palms, a group walks toward a thatched-roof hut with a poster on its front wall. In the centre, a figure in a saffron-orange robe with long dark hair and a yellow-orange garland walks ahead of several men and women in white kurta-style clothes, some wearing white shirts and mala-like necklaces. A concrete building with posters stands to the left, and a motorbike is parked beside it. The central saffron-robed figure has long hair and a garland, a cue matching a presentation used for the page's subject, but appearance alone is not decisive.2009-01-25July 08 20102010-07-08A photograph of an outdoor work yard beneath palm trees, with thatched-roof sheds and rough sandy ground. Carved stone pieces and blocks lie scattered in the foreground, and several large pink and tan carved stone thrones or seats stand under the sheds. A small banner is mounted on the left shed.

In the foreground, a man in white clothes with a yellow shawl kneels before a low bed of gravel and dirt, and a second kneeling figure in white with a yellow shawl appears at the lower right. Further back, a row of people in white and a few in saffron sit or kneel along a low red-and-white striped wall, and a figure in orange sits cross-legged on a mat in the middle distance. A white SUV and a thatched-roof building stand behind them, with a green-and-white information board and a seated figure in white on a white platform at the right edge. A pigeon stands at the left.2010-07-10January 22 20102010-01-22October 07 20102010-10-07Outdoor ashram scene on a sandy ground ringed by palm trees under a clear sky. In the foreground a young man in white clothes and a yellow shawl sits cross-legged within a circular ring of grey ash, with several similar ring-shaped fire pits arranged across the ground. Other people in white and yellow sit around the rings and along a low white wall at left. Behind them stand a white-painted shrine structure, a tall brown ornamental pillar, a small wooden platform, and a parked white SUV. A parked white vehicle and a banner are visible in the background. No one is recognizably identifiable as a person from the image.2010-07-10Outdoor photo of a sandy compound with thatched-roof open sheds beneath tall coconut palms.

Clothes hang on lines, and yellow wildflowers grow at the lower left.2009-12-19Outdoor photograph of a group meditation session in an ashram courtyard lined with tall palm trees under a bright sky.
