A central man with long swept-back dark hair wears an orange saffron wrap, a white and turquoise flower garland, a rudraksha mala with ceremonial gold ornaments, and a red bindi; he walks with eyes lowered and hands folded at his chest. The figure is a probable Swamiji by appearance-based cues: long hair, layered rudraksha and gold necklaces, and saffron clothing. Flanking him are two shaved-headed men in orange wraps with gold beaded necklaces, barefoot, one with a white forehead mark. Behind them, men in white dhotis and orange-clad followers walk among onlookers.2012-07-03December 02 20172017-12-02January 14 20182018-01-14
