A seated figure in a red garment with a red garland sits on the carriage beneath a gold finial canopy, holding a white fan-like object. Surrounding it, men in white dhotis and shirts walk and carry poles, and orange flags with a blue emblem wave. Two large umbrellas in green, red and gold with the printed word "DhyanaPeetam" and white dove motifs shade the procession. Several people in white stand near the carriage, some with hands raised, and a crowd of onlookers is visible at the bottom edge.2010-12-22December 25 20072007-12-25Photo 11702215 +1 copiesDecember 22 20102010-12-22A man in orange-red clothing sits smiling on a decorated ceremonial vehicle.
