A photograph of a crowded indoor darshan inside a red-draped tent. A seated figure on the right wears an orange-saffron robe, a fresh flower garland with pink and yellow blooms, and has long dark hair; this figure is a probable Swamiji by appearance cues, shown extending a hand toward devotees and holding a fruit. Before him, devotees in green, floral and red clothing lean in, a woman in a floral sari and a young boy in a dark shirt reach forward holding red fruit. Behind them, men in white dhotis with gold borders and orange sashes, some wearing gold-bead necklaces and rudraksha malas, stand and sit among the crowd. A video camera on a tripod and a man in white shirt stand at right. Several people are visible, roughly 20 in view.
