A procession walks through an open-sided pavilion with a corrugated metal roof, decorated pillars wrapped in colourful woven patterns and hanging orange lanterns. In the centre, a long-haired person in a saffron-orange robe, with a sash-like wrap, walks barefoot with a hand on another man's arm. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair and saffron robes match the page's presentation cues, so the centre figure is marked as the probable Swamiji. Beside him, a man in a white dhoti and shirt holds a cane, and to the right a young man in white with an orange shawl walks. Others in white dhotis, orange shawls and white dresses, including a girl in white, follow across a patterned carpet. A man in a white shirt and dhoti walks at the left edge, and a folded-hands greeter stands at far left.

A photograph of a group walking barefoot under a corrugated metal-roofed pavilion decorated with painted cylindrical pillars bearing bird and floral motifs. In the foreground a man with long dark hair wears a saffron-orange robe and holds his hands together while speaking. Beside him a bearded man in plain white dhoti and shawl walks, and to the right an older bald man in white kurta and pants wears an orange shawl. Other men in white kurtas and dhotis, one with a yellow shawl, follow, and a young girl in a blue dress walks among them. Behind them a deity murti is visible with floral garlands. A man at left holds a garland of pink and orange flowers. Thirteen to fifteen people are visible.

Indoor photo of a procession inside a large hall with a corrugated metal roof and exposed steel trusses, bare concrete floor and plain block walls. A figure in a saffron-orange robe with a matching orange shawl walks in front, barefoot, followed by a group of devotees. Several men wear white dhotis and shirts, one in a blue shirt, and women wear white and light saris. Some walk with hands folded in namaskar. At left is a painted white cow figure with red and gold decoration beside a blue wooden stand and a white plastic chair. A small lit shrine with deity murti glows at the back of the hall. Overhead hang a light fixture and speakers.

On the left, a white painted cow statue with green and gold trim and red-tipped horns stands on a blue wooden cart. Behind it, a man in an orange robe beats a drum with a red and gold face.

Two colourful striped parasols with red and orange tassels are held up over the group. Several people in white dhotis and orange shawls follow, including a man carrying a red and white bag, and a woman in a white sari stands at the right edge with children.

Photograph inside an open-sided temple pavilion with a corrugated metal roof and tall pillars. Several robed men walk together across a concrete floor. In front, a bearded older man in saffron-orange robes walks with a wooden staff beside a man in a red-orange shawl and garland. Next to them, a man in saffron robes with long hair and a rudraksha mala walks alongside a man in white shirt and dhoti. Behind them, men in white and orange clothing follow. On the right, decorated shrines with colourful arches, floral garlands, and ornate deity murti are arranged along the wall, with brass offerings and a small white brick platform in the foreground.

A procession of barefoot devotees walks through a covered open-sided hall with a corrugated metal roof and a grey concrete floor. Most lead figures wear saffron-orange robes with dark red borders, and several wear rudraksha malas and vermilion marks. A bearded man in front-centre wears an orange robe and carries a red cloth. A young man on the right holds a tall ceremonial umbrella with multicoloured tassels, and beside him another man carries a small orange-clad murti garlanded with white flowers. Others behind wear white dhotis and yellow shawls. Framed photographs hang on the walls, and in the back a shrine with a painted deity image and a red canopy is visible. A child in a blue top stands at the right edge.
