A bearded man with long dark hair, a red bindi and a tilak walks at centre in a rust-red dhoti-style wrap and draped shawl, wearing a heavy gold pendant necklace over rudraksha malas and rust-red beaded armlets. Behind him, women in yellow and cream saris and men in white dhotis with gold borders walk in step, many wearing rudraksha malas. The man's appearance matches the page's Swamiji candidate on several cues (long hair, rudraksha malas, ceremonial gold necklace, rust-red robes), so he is a probable Swamiji in procession.2016-08-12July 19 20162016-07-19A barefoot man in a rust-red sleeveless robe with a red-brown wrap and gold-edged hem walks under a corrugated shed roof, with rudraksha malas layered across his chest and rudraksha bands on his arms. He has a white forehead band with a red tilak, long dark locks, and a beard. Around him, several young men in saffron-orange robes with gold borders wear rudraksha malas, white forehead bands, and upswept dreadlocked hair, walking in a group. The shed roof, metal railings and a tiled floor frame the scene, which appears to be a temple-precinct walk. A person in a white shirt is partly visible at the left edge.2018-03-17A man with long dark hair, a red bindi and a full beard walks forward along a paved path among trees, wearing a rust-red draped robe and a heavy gold pendant necklace over a thick brown rudraksha mala, with dark wrap-around bracelets on his upper arms. Around him, a group of people follow: several young women in yellow, cream and pink saris and rudraksha malas, a man and a young woman in white dhoti and white garments with gold borders, and a woman in a teal sari. Swamiji (probable) appears to be the central figure, identified by his long swept-back hair, ornate gold necklace, rudraksha malas and saffron-red sannyasi robe, leading the walking procession. Dress colours are yellow, cream, pink, teal, white and rust-red, set against green foliage and a red wall.2016-08-12May 17 20132013-05-17A photograph of a procession on a paved courtyard beside a red-roofed building and palm trees. In the foreground a man with long swept-back hair, bare-chested and wearing a red-and-gold dhoti, a red and white flower garland and a gold necklace, walks barefoot with his hands joined near his chest. Behind him a bald man in a red-and-gold dhoti carries a tall wooden staff, and a second man in similar red robes raises a pointing finger. Several rows of people in saffron-orange robes walk with hands folded in prayer, and a woman in a yellow shawl and white sari stands among them. A decorated ceremonial umbrella with a red and gold canopy is held aloft, and palm fronds hang overhead. The scene reads as a ritual procession.2014-11-26June 03 20162016-06-03
