A central figure with long, swept-back dark hair and a sandalwood forehead mark wears a saffron-orange wrap and a heavy ornate gold necklace with large beads; he walks with head bowed. Swamiji (probable): the long hair, saffron garment and ceremonial gold necklace match the candidate's appearance. Around him, a man in a white shirt with a dark rudraksha mala holds a tall gold-and-red ceremonial staff and calls out, while others in white and saffron, one in yellow, press palms together in greeting. A bystander in a white shirt with glasses smiles nearby.2008-12-23Outdoor procession scene under trees.
