Outdoor procession on a dusty dirt road beside a white truck and shipping containers, under bright sunshine with palm trees behind. A man in a long-haired hairstyle and red-orange saffron robe with gold bands and rudraksha mala walks at the centre, smiling and gesturing with one arm outstretched, while a man in white dhoti and shirt holds a large yellow umbrella overhead. Around them, devotees in saffron and red robes, white dhotis and kurtas, and a woman in a red sari with rudraksha mala walk barefoot or in sandals. Some carry saffron cloth bags, and a few wear identity badges on lanyards. Probable Swamiji (probable) appears centrally, identifiable by swept-back long hair, saffron robes, and rudraksha mala.
