Outdoor procession on a dirt road at an ashram-style compound, with a dense crowd of young men in white dhotis and shirts and dark shirts pressing around the path. A decorated palanquin or deity float with a striped multicolour arch of flowers and fabric sits in the background near pink-walled buildings. In the centre, a bald-headed man in an orange robe and orange shawl walks away from the camera, while a long-haired man in a white shirt and orange shawl is seen to the right. A man in a white dhoti with an orange shawl gestures in the foreground. Devotees with folded hands line the route beside the crowd.
