A photograph of a man in an orange saffron garment with a gold-bordered shawl and layered gold bead necklaces with a gold pendant, his long dark hair swept back, marked with white and red tilak on his forehead, standing in a line and placing his right palm on the head of a devotee in a light shirt. Several devotees on the left stand with palms pressed together in anjali, some in white shirts and dhotis, others in light clothing, while more people stand behind in a hall with white canopy and grey curtain. The orange-clad figure appears to be giving a blessing, with the scene reading as a darshan or blessing line. Appearance cues of long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and gold necklaces are consistent with Swamiji (probable), shown in person.
