Outdoor photo of a group walking along a paved path beside a large green tree toward a white temple-style building with arched entrance and marble steps. Several men in saffron and orange robes walk in front, including a bearded man in orange on the far left, a man with a long rudraksha mala in orange robes at centre, and a figure in orange with a rudraksha mala beside him. Others in white kurta and cream clothing walk alongside, and a man in a light shirt and dark trousers ascends the steps.

A photo at the stone temple of Angkor, Cambodia, showing a central figure in an orange robe with a straw hat and a rudraksha mala, standing on a stone step before a doorway beneath a large carved stone face tower. Beside him a man in a white shirt holds a handheld microphone, a figure in white with an orange shawl stands at left, and a cameraman with a shoulder camera films at the far left. Carved bas-reliefs and weathered sandstone surround them under a clear blue sky.

A photograph of a procession climbing stone steps outdoors under a clear sky, with a white metal railing and a wall with a painted mural at right. At right, a barefoot man with long swept-back dark hair and a dark beaded necklace wears a loose orange saffron wrap and walks upward. Beside and behind him, several shaved-headed men in orange and white ritual clothing wear gold-bead necklaces and gold-trimmed white dhotis; one in orange holds a long red pole, and one in orange carries a small orange cloth. A man in a red shirt with white dhoti walks among them, and a youth in white with a gold necklace stands at center. Swamiji (probable) is the barefoot figure at right, identified by long swept-back hair, orange saffron wrap, and dark beaded necklace, in a procession role.
