Crowded outdoor gathering of sadhus and sannyasis in orange and saffron robes and yellow turbans seated closely together. In the foreground a bearded ascetic with long matted grey dreadlocks tied in a topknot, wearing red-framed glasses, bare-chested with many rudraksha malas and wrist beads, is holding a small white item to his mouth. Beside him an orange-robed man with a shaved head and tilak sits with his hands in his lap, and a plastic water bottle and a small steel plate rest on the ground. The scene is busy with orange clothing and devotees in the background.2016-05-11A figure in a long orange wrap-around robe stands barefoot on a rock beside a large banyan tree, holding a silver-coloured walking staff in his right hand. He has long dark hair swept back and looks upward into the branches. On the sandy ground at the base of the tree sit brass pots and kalasha vessels, a blue bucket, and a cloth with bright colours. Red earth and a wooden fence appear in the background, and a red-and-white cloth hangs on the trunk.
