A procession of saffron-robed sannyasis walks along a narrow concrete path lined with dry grass, shrubs and trees, with forested hills behind. In the centre, a man in a rust-red robe wears a large marigold garland and walks barefoot, holding a long staff with a trident-like top. Beside and behind him, several monks in orange and saffron robes carry ceremonial staffs; a man in a red turban and a bald man in orange walk at right. Devotees in white follow further back. The scene reads as a ritual walking procession through the hills.

A narrow concrete path runs through dry scrub and green trees toward distant forested hills under a pale sky. A group of about a dozen people in saffron and orange robes walks away from the camera along the path. Several carry long staffs or poles, and a figure at the centre wears an orange garment with a garland and a pale headcloth. The scene reads as a walking procession of ashram members in orange clothing.2014-01-13January 13 20142014-01-13January 13 20142014-01-13January 13 20142014-01-13January 13 20142014-01-13January 13 20142014-01-13A photograph of a group walking along a narrow paved mountain road lined with dense green ferns and trees.
