A crowded outdoor procession moves along a shaded forest path lined with green trees. At the centre, a man in a saffron-orange robe, a matching orange head wrap, and a long rudraksha mala waves his right hand toward the crowd. Two ornate umbrellas with red, gold and green embroidered canopies and tasselled fringes are carried above the group. Around him, devotees in white shirts and white dhotis walk closely, some in saffron clothing, and a few hold ritual items. Swamiji (probable): the central figure shows long swept-back hair, an orange head wrap, saffron robes and a rudraksha mala, consistent with the page's identification.

In the centre, a man in a white shirt and dark trousers gestures with his hand, with a bald man in white beside him. Several men in orange and saffron robes walk among the crowd; one wears a saffron turban and a rudraksha mala, and another bald-headed monk in orange follows. Two large ornate umbrellas with gold tassels and red, cream and teal embroidered canopies are carried above the procession. Most others wear white shirts and white dhotis. No individual can be confidently identified as a person from appearance alone, so no candidate is claimed.2010-09-04September 04 20102010-09-04Outdoor procession on a dirt path lined with palm trees and leafy shrubs under bright daylight. A man with long dark swept-back hair wears a saffron-orange robe, a gold-and-beaded garland around his neck, and walks at the centre of the group; a red and multicolour fringed parasol is held above him by a man in white. Around him, men in white shirts and dhotis and several with orange shawls walk alongside, some with hands raised. On the right, a man in a red-and-white checked shirt stands with arms folded, and a bearded man in white walks nearby. Several participants wear saffron scarves. The central figure appears as a person candidate by appearance cues, with the procession role.2006-12-23Outdoor procession on a dirt path flanked by banana plants, with two large multicoloured canopy umbrellas carried on poles over the central figure. A central figure in orange-saffron robes wears a red turban, a long white garland with a pink-and-orange flower garland, and a rudraksha-style necklace, walking barefoot with hand raised in blessing. Around him, men in white dhotis and shirts with orange shoulder cloths carry the umbrella poles and walk alongside, while others in white and a man in a white shirt and blue jeans stand at the edges. The appearance-based candidate fits several cues including the long hair, saffron robes and ornate garlands, so this is probable Swamiji in procession.2007-12-30July 27 20082008-07-27September 04 20102010-09-04December 27 20082008-12-27December 30 20072007-12-30 +1 copiesA crowd moves along a leafy path lined with trees and greenery.
