A photograph of a dusty courtyard at an ashram compound. A two-storey cream building with a terracotta-tiled roof and maroon wooden gates stands at right, with a person in white standing near its doorway. At left is a thatched palm-leaf hut and a single-storey building with an orange tiled roof behind a grey breeze-block wall. A water tank sits on a stand above the trees. Near the centre, two people stand and sit on the grass, one in white clothing and one in an orange-saffron robe. No festival or ritual activity is visible.

A photograph of a rural compound with a long thatched-roof building with whitewashed walls and a small concrete shed with a sloped awning, set beside a dirt path and a paved stone walkway through grass. Three people stand on the path: an older man in a white shirt and white trousers with a red-orange shawl over his shoulders, a person in orange robes with a red-orange shawl, and a person in white clothing with a red-orange shawl. They appear to be in conversation near the shed entrance. A palm tree and trees stand in the background under an overcast sky.2010-06-05October 06 20062006-10-06September 19 20062006-09-19September 30 20062006-09-30September 19 20062006-09-19A photograph of an outdoor ashram courtyard with bare dirt ground, a banana plant and palm fronds at the edges, and a white single-storey building with red diamond motifs and a black water tank. In the foreground a man with long dark swept-back hair and a smile wears an orange saffron wrap and sandals and walks forward. Behind him a man in white dhoti and white shirt holds a small booklet, and another man in white stands near the water tank.
