Outdoor procession on a dirt path through green scrub and palm trees. Many people in saffron-orange clothing walk in a line, with several children and a few men in white kurtas. A man in a white kurta with a saffron shawl walks near the centre, carrying nothing visible, while a woman in orange sari walks beside him. Two people hold a white and red ornate canopy umbrella over the group, and another person on the right carries a long pole with a yellow and red embroidered banner. Thatched huts, flags on bamboo poles and rocky hills sit in the background under a pale sky.

A procession walks along a dirt path between palm and tall trees in a rural green setting. Several devotees in saffron-orange robes and white clothing carry ceremonial items, including a tray and a few tall poles with orange streamers. Two colourful umbrellas (one red-and-patterned, one maroon) and a yellow-and-red banner are carried above the group. Many people are visible, mostly in orange or white, with a few children in the front-left area wearing red and light blue. A sign at the lower right is too small to read clearly.

In the left foreground, several people in orange sit on the ground near rows of sandals. At right, a figure in white holds a large umbrella over a person. A red shrine structure and a banner with a portrait are visible on the left. Bright sunlight and dappled shade cover the scene.

An outdoor procession of many people walks along a dirt path through dry grass and bushes at a rural site with thatched huts and orange flags. Most walkers wear saffron-orange robes and some wear white dhotis or kurtas. A man in the right foreground wears long hair and orange robes and holds a long staff, with an orange-robed companion beside him. On the right, a large ornate umbrella with fringed red and gold fabric and a yellow embroidered banner with a blue emblem is carried above the group. Children in white shirts, red and blue clothing mingle among the adults. Trees and a distant hill stand in the background under a pale sky.

Outdoor procession on a dirt road under bright hazy sky. A figure with long dark hair, a white flower garland, a multi-strand rudraksha and gold necklace and orange robes walks centrally, palms raised in greeting; this appearance-based candidate is Swamiji (probable). Beside him, a man in orange robes and a rudraksha mala carries a gold trident, and another in orange holds a gold staff. Behind, men in white dhotis and orange shawls walk under red and orange ceremonial umbrellas with tasselled edges, and orange flags fly. A small boy in a white shirt walks at left, and a man in orange with a garland walks at far right. Spectators line the background.
