Outdoor procession under a bright sky with a fringed red-and-tassel canopy at the top. A man in a saffron-orange robe with long, swept-back wavy dark hair and a white forehead mark with a red dot walks at the front, wearing a thick white and red-and-green jasmine garland. Behind him, a man in white kurta and dhoti carries a small brass vessel with a teal cloth draped over it, and a man in orange robes follows. Other people in orange and white clothing crowd the background beside a decorated chariot-like float with orange and white drapery. Probable Swamiji cues: long hair, saffron robe, garland, and ritual procession role.
