A photograph of a procession scene. In the foreground, a figure in a tall gold ornate crown, a white garland of jasmine and red roses, a rudraksha mala, and an orange-saffron shawl with gold border stands in profile, smiling. Behind, a shaved-headed man in orange clothing with a red tilak on his forehead looks on. Behind them stands a large ceremonial umbrella with a red fringe, yellow and blue panels, and a white bird motif, with a gold-tasselled pole on the right. The figure is an appearance-based candidate for Swamiji (probable), identified by crown, garland, rudraksha and saffron shawl; the crowned person's role is that of the honoured procession figure.
