A long-haired man in a saffron-orange robe with a draped shawl walks centre-frame, holding a silver-topped walking staff, with a faint smile; the figure's appearance (long swept-back hair, saffron robe, ceremonial presentation) matches the page's Swamiji reference, so this is a probable Swamiji. Three men in white dhotis and white shirts walk around him; the man at left wears a rudraksha mala and wristwatch, and the man at right carries a pair of sandals in one hand while walking barefoot. A white-shirted man behind the group also walks with them.2006-09-23Outdoor procession in a temple courtyard with a crowd of devotees in white and orange behind.

One man in white holds a brass vessel with green leaves on a red tray, while another carries a round blue-and-orange ceremonial fan. A man at right grips a tall blue pole.
