Outdoors under a corrugated metal shelter with yellow-painted railings, a man with long dark hair and a beard sits on a concrete ledge in a rust-orange robe, smiling and raising one hand in greeting. His bare feet rest on a red pot decorated with pink and yellow flower petals. A devotee in a white dhoti and shirt kneels beside him with palms pressed together in namaskar, and another man in a white shirt stands behind them. At left, a younger man with curly hair wears an orange shirt with a flower garland and sits on the ledge. On the right, a shirtless man with long dreadlocks and a rudraksha mala wears a white dhoti with gold border and holds sandals, smiling. Several onlookers stand in the background, some holding phones. The seated robed man has long hair and a sannyasi appearance, though the identity is uncertain from appearance alone.

A photo inside a covered, yellow-railed pavement shelter where a man in a rust-red robe with long dark hair stands on a stone platform while a kneeling attendant in orange robes bends to his feet, with a brass tray of marigold flowers and petals at the base. Around them, several people in white dhotis with gold borders stand with hands folded or touching, including a woman in a white sari with a red-bordered blouse and a bindi. A young attendant on the right, bare-chested with rudraksha malas and a rust-coloured tassel, holds a pair of sandals. The setting is an open outdoor walkway with a corrugated metal roof and a yellow-and-white sign on the wall. The scene shows padapuja-style foot veneration in a devotional procession setting.2018-01-04Photograph of a ritual scene under a corrugated metal shelter with yellow railings.

Other devotees in white and blue clothing stand behind, some with folded hands and a tray of offerings. A padapuja-style feet-worship scene. The man in rust robes has long hair and a shawl, a distinctive cue for the event's honoured guru, so the appearance label is probable Swamiji (probable), seated in person.2018-01-04January 04 20182018-01-04January 04 20182018-01-04January 04 20182018-01-04January 04 20182018-01-04January 04 20182018-01-04January 04 20182018-01-04A photograph of devotees gathered inside a yellow-railed covered shelter around a central figure in a rust-red robe standing barefoot on a stone platform with a red cushion and pink flower offering.
