A man in the centre wears a deep rust-red sleeveless garment with a long rudraksha mala, a white forehead mark, and long dark hair swept back, walking with a calm expression. Around him, several men and women in saffron-orange robes carry a tall golden-yellow staff with a fringed canopy at the top; one attendant wears a white-and-gold silk shawl, and another in white dhoti with a rudraksha mala and sandal-coloured body marks walks beside them. Drummers in saffron stand at the left edge. Several people wear white forehead tripundras. The mood is ceremonial.2018-01-01February 17 20172017-02-17April 17 20172017-04-17Photo 11698552January 30 20172017-01-30March 25 20172017-03-25June 06 20132013-06-06December 27 20132013-12-27A procession at an outdoor ashram courtyard under a shade canopy, with palm trees and a red-painted pillar behind. Saffron-robed sannyasis walk in a line, several with hands folded in anjali, and one drummer on the left beats a drum. A man in a maroon dhoti with a gold-toned garland of flowers leads the group, holding his hands together. Beside him a young man in saffron cloth carries a silver tray with a plant sprig. On the right a man in a white dhoti with gold borders holds a tall ceremonial parasol, and a woman in white stands near him. The scene resembles a ritual procession.2013-11-22
