A darshan line in a tented hall at night. A long-haired figure in orange robes with a white flower garland sits on a white-covered seat, bending forward to receive an offering from a man in a dark shirt who holds a red flower. A bald man in a white dhoti and orange shawl stands behind them, and devotees in white and blue shirts, checked shirts and white dhotis queue along the right. A young girl in a cream and gold sari with a beaded necklace stands at the right edge. A standing fan and a microphone stand are beside the seat, and a red-and-yellow decorated pillar is at the top left. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure has long dark hair, orange robes and a flower garland, which fits the page's account of Swamiji giving darshan.
