Around him, men in white dhotis with gold borders and red-orange shawls hold up ornate red, orange and gold umbrellas with fringed edges. Devotees in white and orange shawls sit in the foreground at the water's edge, and a woman in orange stands at the left. The central figure matches the page's Swamiji reference through a turban, saffron clothing, garland and ornaments, so this is a probable appearance-based identification.2014-12-17April 18 20162016-04-18December 23 20162016-12-23December 23 20162016-12-23June 07 20162016-06-07Outdoor procession on a tree-lined dirt path beside a red brick wall.
