A photo of a procession walking barefoot across a white-floored hall. In front, a bearded man with long dark hair wears a rust-red robe and a gold-and-bead garland with a large gold pendant, plus gold armbands and a tilak on his forehead. Behind him, a woman in a red sari and men in white dhotis with gold borders and bare upper bodies, one wearing a rudraksha mala, follow. Background shows gold umbrellas, a gilded deity murti and framed pictures. A front figure matches the page's a person reference only through his saffron-red robe and ornate gold adornments; the appearance cues are sufficient for a probable label. Four people are visible in the procession.
