Outdoor procession at an ashram with a large deity murti or image decorated with a dense garland of multicoloured flowers, carried beneath an ornate, fringed multicoloured canopy on a pole. Several men in orange cloth and rudraksha malas carry the palanquin, one bare-chested with white cloth at his waist. A white-clad elderly priest walks in front holding a ceremonial object. Women in orange saris and beaded necklaces follow, and a red-and-orange umbrella and a blue umbrella are visible at left. Palm trees and green foliage form the background.
