A photograph at a seated darshan. A woman in a green and white patterned salwar kameez bows deeply, her forehead near the hands of a seated man in saffron robes with long dark hair tied back, a rudraksha mala around his neck. He holds a paper form and sits on white cushions beside a tray of offerings including kumkum, vibhuti and fruit. A man in saffron with a shaved head and tilak stands behind him with palms pressed together in namaste. Standing at left are two young men in white shirts and a man in a red shirt. A digital clock reads 19:02 on the table. The seated man appears to be a probable Swamiji (probable), given the long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha mala, and he is shown receiving a devotee in person.
