A photograph of a group walking along a narrow paved lane beside a white wall, with palm trees and green foliage behind. In the centre, a woman with long dark hair and a red bindi wears a flowing saffron-orange garment and walks with eyes lowered. Beside her, a man in a saffron-orange dhoti and shawl with red border walks barefoot. Around them, men in white shirts and white dhotis, several wearing white-and-beige lanyard badges and beaded necklaces, walk in step. A striped tent canopy and orange-red decorations appear at the right edge, and a few onlookers stand near the wall.

A photograph of a group walking outside a gated compound with a golden iron gate and brick wall. In the centre, a figure with long dark hair wears an orange saffron robe, a red undergarment and a long garland of white flowers and red blossoms. Beside them, a man in orange with long hair holds a dark cloth. Around them, men in white shirts and white dhotis walk and gesture, and a bare-chested older man in a white dhoti with a gold-coloured waist cloth turns toward the group at right. A red barrier and small sign sit at the right edge.

A photograph of a procession ascending a stepped platform decorated with white kolam rangoli patterns, under palm trees, with thatched-roof and tin-roof white buildings with red doors behind. In front, a man in a saffron-orange robe with a long dark rudraksha mala and a red-brown tilak walks with eyes lowered, hands folded at his waist, followed by men in white dhotis with yellow and orange shawls, one holding a walking stick. Behind them, more people in white clothes walk and stand, and a dark stone deity murti with an orange cloth stands at right. Smoke drifts at left and small figures in white move across the courtyard in the background. Physical people visible: about ten to fifteen.

A photograph of a crowded temple entrance decorated with bands of marigold and white flower garlands and pink and red blossoms. A man in saffron-orange robes with long dark hair, a rudraksha mala around his neck, and bare feet walks forward at the centre, flanked by devotees. A man in a pink robe gestures toward him, a bald man in orange shawl stands behind, and a bare-chested priest in a blue cloth with a sacred thread walks at the left edge. Several men in white dhotis and a woman in a red sari are visible. Swamiji (probable): the central saffron-robed figure with long hair and rudraksha mala matches the page's account of this event. The visible people number about twenty.

A group of men walks barefoot along a dirt lane beside an old stone temple wall in a South Indian village. In the centre, a man with long dark swept-back hair wears a saffron-orange robe draped over one shoulder and walks ahead of the others. Several men flank him in white dhotis and white shirts, some with orange shawls, rudraksha malas and shaved or white-marked foreheads. A tiled-roof house and a green-painted fence stand in the background.
