A dusty unpaved road leads to an orange-painted ashram gate with pointed finials, flanked by a small domed gatehouse and a green wrought-iron gate. A silver minivan is parked on the left beside a chain-link fence, and a man in white dhoti and shirt stands at its side. Near the gate, a few people in white and orange robes stand together, and a pavilion with red and patterned draped cloth is at the right edge. Sparse trees and a flat overcast sky complete the scene.
