In the centre, a smiling man with long dark hair pulled back wears a maroon-red robe, a thick rudraksha-style mala and a heavy ceremonial gold bead necklace, with a red-and-white-and-yellow flower garland around his neck. Beside him, a bald man in a saffron-orange robe with a red-and-yellow marigold and white jasmine garland stands with eyes lowered. Behind them, more robed men carry gold-tipped staffs and colourful embroidered flags, and an umbrella is held overhead. A bald man in glasses and an orange shawl, with a gold necklace, walks at right, and bystanders in white dhotis line the edges. Probable Swamiji is the central figure in the maroon robe, identified only by appearance cues of long swept-back hair, ornate gold necklace and garlanded procession role.2013-11-11November 11 20132013-11-11Outdoor photograph of a welcoming procession at a temple-like setting with a palm tree and a gold umbrella overhead.
