A group of boys and young men in white kurta-style clothing play percussion and wind instruments: a young man in front holds a large brass-rimmed drum, a boy in the centre holds a small brass drum, and others play a flute and small cymbals. A young man wears an orange shawl over his white clothes, and a boy has a red mark on his forehead. Small white ashram buildings and a purple banner are visible in the background.2007-10-12September 26 20142014-09-26A line of musicians and attendants stands on a dirt road beside green foliage during a procession. In the foreground, boys and young men in saffron-orange dhotis and cloths play large white-faced drums and a brass horn, with rudraksha malas around their necks and sandalwood or ash markings on their chests. Behind them, others in white dhotis with gold borders hold drumsticks and clappers, and to the left stand women in white saris with gold borders, wearing rudraksha beads and tilak. A few onlookers in white and light clothing stand at the right edge.2017-12-16A photograph of an outdoor procession on a dirt road lined with trees. Several drummers in white dhotis and white shirts play barrel drums, one with a bare chest and rudraksha-style beaded necklace. A young man in a white shirt and dhoti dances with his arm raised. Behind them a large crowd of mostly young men and women in white and cream traditional clothing, some with yellow and orange borders, walks forward. Many carry orange-red flags with a blue emblem. Dense trees and a red-roofed building fill the background. No individual is identifiable as a person; the scene shows devotees and drummers in a festival procession.2010-12-20June 07 20162016-06-07November 16 20152015-11-16July 19 20162016-07-19January 14 20182018-01-14
