A figure in a flowing saffron-orange robe with long, swept-back dark hair walks along a dirt path, holding a long wooden staff in the right hand. Behind him a line of about a dozen people in white and light clothing stands along the roadside, hands pressed together in greeting. A red-brick building with a green corrugated roof sits on the left, a tall pole stands on the path, and a small red-and-white pedestal is beside the walker. Silver SUVs are parked on the right beside palm and dense green trees, and yellow flowering shrubs grow at the left edge. The figure has distinctive long hair and saffron robes, matching the page's Swamiji cue, so the appearance is a probable match.2006-08-18A figure in a saffron-orange robe with long, swept-back dark hair walks along a dirt path carrying a long staff, sandals on feet, toward the camera.
