A crowded temple passage with a wicker basket held overhead by a man in a white shirt and white dhoti, while another man at the right holds the basket's rope. Below them, a figure in orange saffron robes with gold borders and a long rudraksha mala stands with hands folded, the head and shoulders showered with white jasmine petals and red flowers. Two other sannyasis in orange stand nearby, and red and white petals cover the stone floor. Many onlookers in white and ordinary clothes fill the background, and a stone temple wall lines the left side.

A central man in an orange-saffron robe and layered rudraksha malas, with a white forehead mark and a flower garland, smiles while several men in white shirts and white dhotis lift a large woven basket overhead with raised arms. Flower petals and orange garments surround him, and a tall temple gopuram rises in the background among onlookers in white and orange clothing. Swamiji (probable) fits the central figure: long hair under a flower garland, saffron robe, rudraksha malas and ornate chain, with devotees lifting a basket above him. The people in white are devotees or attendants.2012-05-22 +2 copiesMay 22 20122012-05-22May 22 20122012-05-22 +1 copiesMay 22 20122012-05-22 +1 copies
