In the centre, a woman in a long saffron-orange shawl walks forward with a slight smile, and beside her a young man with long dark hair wears an orange wrap over white and carries a bouquet of yellow flowers. Several men in white dhotis and white shirts, some wearing garlands of white and yellow flowers, accompany them, with a crowd of onlookers behind. Flags in green, red, blue and white flutter overhead against a pale sky. The scene shows a devotee welcome and visit at a college campus.2010-01-11January 11 20102010-01-11A photograph of a white-walled corridor with arched windows and pale tiled floor. A central figure in an orange saffron robe, orange turban and long dark hair walks barefoot beside several men.
