Two saffron-robed men lead the walk: the figure on the left in orange cloth with a red-and-white tilak on his forehead and sandals, and on the right a smiling man with a long swept-back hair, an orange turban, an ornate gold necklace and hands folded before him, a person by appearance cues. Behind them men in white dhotis and maroon-and-gold shawls walk with a silver-topped staff visible at left, and a green metal gate stands in the background.2006-01-01December 07 20072007-12-07August 09 20072007-08-09November 05 20132013-11-05May 04 20162016-05-04 +1 copiesNovember 05 20132013-11-05Outdoor procession on a paved path with a blue-edged mat runner. A central man in a rust-red sleeveless tunic and draped dhoti walks barefoot with eyes closed, wearing long dark braided hair, a white vertical tilak on his forehead, a gold necklace and a long rudraksha mala across his chest. Behind him a young attendant in an orange-saffron dhoti and leopard-print headwrap and shawl holds a tall gold pole supporting a large multicoloured canopy with red and orange tassels. Several other attendants in orange robes, rudraksha malas and white body markings walk alongside, and trees and reddish buildings stand in the background.2018-01-01January 09 20072007-01-09 +1 copiesA procession walks along a red carpet on a pale paved ground in front of a open-sided pavilion with palm trees behind. At the centre, a bearded elder with long white hair wears a saffron-orange robe and a white and red flower garland, walking barefoot. Beside him a man in a brown-orange robe with a gold-bordered cloth and a rudraksha mala carries a long staff. Around them, saffron-clad men and youths in orange robes and white forehead markings carry drums and walk with hands folded, while a man at right holds a long brass horn. Two saffron and gold banners with emblems rise above the group, and a white and gold ceremonial umbrella is held aloft. The scene reads as a ritual procession.2013-11-05May 24 20122012-05-24 +1 copies
