Multiple strands of rudraksha-style beads and a gold pendant hang around the neck, with white jasmine garlands draped over the shoulder, and orange clogs on the feet. Strings of red, green and white lights and a tall pole stand in the background. Swamiji (probable): the figure has a turban, saffron-toned ornate robes, rudraksha malas and a ceremonial gold pendant, so the appearance matches the candidate, but he is shown standing in person as a participant in a night procession setting.2015-11-19November 19 20152015-11-19November 19 20152015-11-19November 19 20152015-11-19November 22 20152015-11-22Night procession photo on a dirt path beside a brick-edged garden bed lit by string lights.

A smiling man in a maroon turban and maroon-and-gold draped garment walks forward, holding a silver trident (trishul) in his right hand and a lit lamp or light in his left. He wears layered rudraksha-style beaded malas, a large gold pendant necklace, a flower garland with white blossoms and multicolour threads over one shoulder, and orange clogs. Behind him, figures in orange robes carry poles, and string lights in red, green and white decorate the building. The page is a Tamil satsang on Aadhi Saivam, and the flag indicates a person attended, but the figure's appearance is uncertain, so the role is described as a procession participant.2015-11-19
