A photograph of a group of young children walking barefoot along a paved road in an ashram setting, with palm trees, greenery and small red-roofed buildings behind them. Many wear maroon kurta-style tunics with gold trim and maroon dhotis, while several boys in saffron-orange robes with gold borders lead the group. One child in saffron holds a tall gold-topped staff aloft, another plays a hand cymbal, a girl carries a drum slung over her shoulder, and others sound conch-like horns or blow into their hands. Their faces bear white and painted markings. Along the roadside, adults in white and small figures stand in the background near a rock pile and a signboard.

Girls and boys wear maroon and gold dress, while several boys in saffron-orange robes walk barefoot, some with shaved heads and white sacred markings on their foreheads. Two boys in the front-right raise long brass horns (ceremonial trumpets), and a girl in maroon carries a drum wrapped in red cloth.

Several men have shaved heads and wear rudraksha malas, and the women wear beaded necklaces and drape their garments over their shoulders. Behind them a decorated vehicle with a red, orange and yellow floral canopy carries a framed image of a deity and a flag on a pole. The group numbers roughly two dozen visible people, with some partly obscured in the background. No individual can be confidently identified as a person from appearance, so roles are used.2013-11-15Outdoor photograph of a line of women and a few men in orange and rust-red ochre clothing walking along a dusty, light-coloured rural road lined with palm trees and a red boundary wall.
