Outdoor ashram courtyard of sandy dirt under a cloudy sky. On the left, an orange-red building with a green corrugated roof has a doorway where many people in white clothes stand and sit, and a small banner hangs on its wall. Rows of sandals lie scattered on the ground along the building's edge. In the centre, a small white golf-cart-style vehicle moves among crowds of devotees in white and saffron-bordered saris and dhotis, some carrying bags. On the right, a tented canopy with blue and red fabric and a striped umbrella shelters a stall-like area. Palm fronds and distant trees and water tanks complete the scene.
