A man with long dark hair, wearing a red-orange robe and a white-and-blue flower garland, walks centrally, one arm raised in a gesture of greeting. Beside him a bald saffron-robed priest with a white-and-blue garland holds one hand to his chest. Other saffron-clad men and white-clad devotees follow, with an elderly man in an orange shirt and women in white saris at right. Lights from a bus behind the crowd illuminate the scene. Swamiji (probable) is the centrally placed man with long swept-back hair and red-orange robes in the procession.
