A central man with long swept-back dark hair wears a white dhoti-style garment with gold border, a red and white flower garland, and multiple gold necklaces; he holds his hands together in greeting. Around him, men in saffron-orange robes wear rudraksha malas and gold pendants, carrying a golden trident and a long staff. On the left, men in white clothes hold red-and-gold ceremonial parasols with fringed tassels; a man in red kurta with orange shawl walks at the right edge. Several others in orange and red clothing accompany the procession. Due to his distinctive long hair, ceremonial gold necklaces and garland, the central figure is a probable Swamiji.
