Outdoor scene at a red-walled building with a carved wooden door and entrance steps lined with potted plants. A man in orange monastic robes stands at the top of the steps beside a man in a black t-shirt and dark trousers, near a black speaker and a metal detector frame. Several workers in casual clothes kneel and dig in the dirt at the foot of the steps, laying and fitting flat grey stone slabs on the ground. A sign on the wall reads Nithyananda Dhyanapeetham and mentions video recording.
