A photograph of a darshan line where a figure in orange robes and an orange head wrap, with long dark hair and a bead necklace, extends a hand over a young boy in a white shirt. Behind them, women in a pale blue sari and a red-and-gold sari stand close, one woman in white with an orange lanyard at the left edge, and men in white shirts and a purple garment stand in the background. The orange-robed figure is a probable Swamiji by appearance: long swept-back hair, orange head wrap and saffron robes, with a bead necklace; this is a candidate, so the swamiji field is in_person.

Several women in white and cream saris with orange and yellow shawls stand in the background, one in a teal-and-pink sari, in a whitewashed hall with red painted borders. The orange-clad figure has long hair and orange garments, a compatible cue for the page's subject, but the face and appearance are not distinctive enough to confirm identity, so the figure is described by role as a robed giver of blessing and a person is set to unsure.

A seated man in an orange saffron robe with a dark rudraksha mala around his neck places his right hand on the forehead of a kneeling young boy in a yellow, green and blue striped shirt, who has his palms pressed together in namaste. The man holds small silver-toned objects in his left hand and has his hair tied back in a bun. A red tiger-striped cushion lies beneath him. Behind them, a blurred crowd of devotees in white and orange stands near a floral-decorated altar with purple and red garlands. The scene suggests a blessing or darshan. The man has distinctive rudraksha beads and orange robes, consistent with a swami in a blessing gesture, but his face is partly turned and the appearance is not conclusive, so the identity is uncertain.
