Night procession on a paved stone path beside an ancient temple wall. At the centre, a smiling man with long dark hair and a red-and-gold headband, wearing an orange-saffron cloth and a rudraksha-style necklace, walks barefoot, with a man in orange beside him and a bearded figure in orange and white behind. Around them uniformed police officers in khaki with red belts walk alongside, and a crowd of devotees in white, saffron and purple moves through the scene. A lamp glows on the ground at lower left.
