In the centre, a man in an orange turban and saffron robe, wearing a long garland of yellow and white flowers and a rudraksha-style bead necklace, walks with palms pressed together in greeting. Around him, devotees in white dhotis and white shirts, a woman in a blue sari with yellow blouse, and a bare-chested man in orange dhoti and bead mala move through the procession. Loudspeakers are mounted on the pillars. The visible people number more than twenty.
