A seated figure in an orange saffron garment with long, swept-back dark hair sits on a red-draped couch, reaching out to a devotee in a red top at the front of a crowd. Behind the couch a fruit basket, a tray of offerings with vibhuti, kumkum and flowers, and printed pamphlets are arranged. Around them a dense crowd of men and women in white and cream clothes stands and watches. A standing young man in orange, a bald man in orange and a figure in orange stand in the background beside a curtained stage. The scene resembles a darshan and healing session.
