A procession of men in ceremonial clothing walks across a paved courtyard beneath a red and gold umbrella with tasselled fringe. The central figure wears a maroon garment with gold border and a heavy dark rudraksha mala across the chest, with long hair and red-brown forehead marks. Beside him a man in orange with gold-bordered cloth and a yellow-flower garland carries a silver tray holding a kalasha with mango leaves and marigolds. Behind them, a shaved-headed man in white dhoti and a red-clothed man follow, and at right an orange-robed man with rudraksha beads and an orange wrist band walks with hands joined. A white vehicle is visible at upper left.

Outdoor procession on a dirt path at dusk. A man with long swept-back dark hair, a red tilak on his forehead, a white and pink flower garland and a gold necklace wears an orange-saffron dhoti and shawl with gold borders and smiles beside a bearded man in saffron robes and a gold necklace who holds a tall gold trident. Behind them, colourful fringed umbrellas and silver ceremonial weapons are visible. On the right, a man in a white dhoti with an orange shawl and glasses stands facing them, and a woman in a red sari is partly visible. Attendants in saffron cloth stand to the left.

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.

In front, a man with long swept-back dark hair wears an orange-saffron dhoti-style cloth, multiple strands of rudraksha beads across his chest and gold bangles, and a green parrot perches on his shoulder. Beside him, a bald man in a red-orange cloth with a gold border and a gold-beaded necklace carries a small orange object. Behind them, shaven-headed men in white dhotis with white forehead markings follow, and a woman in a white sari with gold border holding a garland stands at the left. Trees and foliage fill the background.

A photograph of four men walking along a covered brick walkway outside a building, with parked vehicles and greenery in the background. On the right, a man with a shaved head and dark hair swept back, wearing a gold-threaded reddish-brown dhoti, a gold garland and a gold-and-pearl necklace, walks barefoot and smiles. Behind him, a white-bearded elder in saffron-orange robes with a red flower garland carries a staff. A saffron-clad attendant holds a decorative white-and-gold parasol above the group. Two other men in reddish-brown dhotis walk nearby, one with a rudraksha mala. Four physical people are visible.
