A procession on a dirt ground at an ashram. A man in a long brown-red robe with a white flower garland and a dark beaded necklace walks centrally on a narrow blue-and-white strip, flanked by two men in white dhotis with gold borders and rudraksha malas, carrying a large white umbrella with multicolored tassels and a gold finial overhead. Behind them, men in orange and saffron robes and drummers with a drum stand near a wire fence and bare trees. The central figure shows long hair and a beard, and the page identifies a person at this event, but the appearance cues are not distinct enough to confirm him, so he is treated as a person in the procession.
