A photograph of an outdoor procession at a Dasara celebration. A seated man in orange robes, with long dark hair, a red flower garland and a gold necklace, sits on an ornate gold throne covered in yellow marigold flowers, with a red cushion beneath him. Next to the throne, a deity murti decorated with white garlands, a gold crown and gold jewellery stands beside red and orange flower arrangements. Red and white brick architecture and blue-and-white striped pillars frame the scene, and a crowd of devotees is visible in the foreground. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure, distinguished by long swept-back hair, saffron robes, red garlands and gold necklace, appears to be the Paramashivam shown on the throne in this procession.
