Evening procession on a red carpet at an outdoor shrine. In the foreground, a young boy in saffron-orange robes bends over a long curved gold horn, while a drummer in orange on the right plays a large drum. Behind them, a man in a maroon-and-gold garment with a white flower garland walks forward, flanked by people in white dhotis and orange robes. Behind the procession, a red-draped shrine with a gilded arch holds a deity murti, and a blue-topped umbrella and a decorated standard are raised near the crowd.

A central figure in an orange-brown cloth and a large gold-toned garland walks forward holding a tall silver trident-like staff, with a silver ceremonial parasol behind. Around them, young devotees in orange and saffron robes with red borders walk in step, many with white-painted faces and forehead markings. Drummers on the left play a large drum, and a long brass horn is raised at the centre. Red, yellow and blue draped cloth canopies line the right side, with flagpoles and a tent behind the crowd. The figure at centre has distinctive long hair and ornate adornments, a person cue, but the appearance is not clear enough to confirm identity.2013-07-22A procession of young men in saffron-red robes and matching red turbans walks barefoot along a polished floor toward a tall wooden double door. The front musician plays a long brass horn, while behind him a drummer carries a round hand drum and others follow with additional drums. Several wear rudraksha malas over red cloth, and the open doorway behind them shows trees in bright daylight. The scene is a ceremonial band procession in an ashram hall.2018-04-17November 26 20142014-11-26December 29 20082008-12-29
