A group walks through a dim temple corridor with carved pillars and a fruit stall at left. At centre, a man in saffron robes with a rudraksha mala and long swept-back hair walks with palms pressed together in greeting; this is a probable Swamiji by appearance cues. Flanking him are saffron-clad attendants and a man in white dhoti, plus uniformed officers in khaki and a man in a striped shirt and white trousers. Yellow bananas hang at the left stall. Probable Swamiji is shown in the procession, with an attendant following behind him.

A photograph inside a dim stone temple hall at night, with a lit doorway and oil lamps glowing in the background. In the centre, a man in a saffron-orange robe with a long rudraksha mala around his neck walks barefoot with palms pressed together in greeting. Two saffron-robed companions in orange shawls walk beside him. Around them, men in white shirts and trousers, a man in a striped shirt, uniformed police or guards, and a woman in a blue patterned sari move through the aisle.

At centre, a man in a rust-orange dhoti and shawl with a gold-coloured ceremonial necklace and a gold crown walks barefoot. Around him, men in saffron and orange robes and white dhotis with yellow borders walk in procession, some wearing rudraksha malas.
