A photo of an open-sided bamboo and thatch construction frame at an ashram site under bright daylight. Tall bamboo poles and angled struts support a dry palm-thatch roof over a dirt ground with scattered debris and a leaning wooden ladder. Behind the structure stand palm trees, green foliage, a parked blue car and white buildings along a dirt path. A figure in a purple garment is partly visible at the left edge.

A photograph of an open-sided thatched structure under construction at an outdoor site. A long, low roof of dried straw or thatch rests on a framework of bamboo poles and wooden posts, with diagonal bracing poles leaning against the sides. Beneath the roof, stacked metal pipes or rods lie on crossbeams above a concrete plinth with red earth exposed inside its perimeter. Palm trees and a leafy branch frame the scene, and a small blue structure appears in the background. No people are visible.

A photograph of a rustic open shelter with a thick thatched roof of dried palm or reed fronds laid over a bamboo frame, supported by long wooden poles driven into dry reddish-brown earth. The thatch is bleached grey-beige. Behind it rises a green scrubby hillside with scattered grey boulders and a rocky outcrop under a pale sky. A small white building is faintly visible at the right edge. No people are present in the scene.

A photograph of a long, open bamboo-framed shed under a thatched roof of dried palm fronds, under construction or being built at an ashram site. Diagonal bamboo bracing supports the structure, and the ground beneath is bare earth with dry debris. Behind it stand palm trees, a low white building with blue doors, and a blue sky with scattered clouds. No people are visible.

A photograph of an open thatched pavilion under construction at an ashram site under a clear blue sky. Bamboo poles and a lattice of wooden beams support a steep palm-thatched roof. A large circular portrait of a saffron-robed figure with a red head wrap is mounted on the thatch above the entrance. Inside, a worker in a checked shirt stands among the poles, and a person in white with an orange shawl stands at the right edge. Palm trees, green shrubs and a white building with a red roof appear in the background, with construction materials stacked on the ground at left.

A photograph of an open-sided thatched shelter on dusty red earth, supported by rough wooden poles and a central tree whose green leaves spread over the roof. Beneath it are stacked steel rods and bundled metal bars resting on a low concrete plinth, with a stack of black metal railing sections in the foreground. Palm trees and a parked silver SUV sit at the left and right edges, with a pale wall behind. No people are visible.

A photograph of workers constructing a large triangular bamboo scaffold frame outdoors on a dirt ground under a pale sky. Two men climb the frame, one in an orange garment on the upper slope and another in dark clothing lower down, while a third worker crouches at left tying or sorting poles. Bundles of cut bamboo and dry straw lie on the ground, a blue barrel sits near the frame, and palm trees and low buildings with a red-tiled roof stand in the background. No ritual or a person presence is visible.
