A street procession in front of a large white-and-orange tour bus, with a crowd of onlookers lining the road. At centre, a man with long swept-back hair wears a rust-red and saffron sannyasi robe, a heavy gold pendant and a long rudraksha mala with a large gold ornament, and smiles with hands held out, in a manner matching the page's description of a person. Beside him, a shaved-headed priest in an orange robe with white tripundra marks and a saffron shawl walks ahead, and other saffron-robed devotees follow. An older man in white dhoti and shirt carries a small child in pink on his hip, and a woman in orange sari holds a brass plate with a kalasha decorated with green leaves and pink flowers. Pink buildings and trees stand along the roadside.
