Photo of a Kalpataru darshan where devotees receive blessings. On the right, a man with long swept-back dark hair, wearing an orange saffron garment and a white floral garland, holds his palm raised toward a woman's forehead. A woman in the centre wears a white sari with a gold border and a red bindi, looking intently toward him. A second man in white bows his head at left, hands pressed together, and a woman in a pink sari stands beside him holding a red-and-white Kalpataru identity card. Background shows a red and gold patterned backdrop and other onlookers. Swamiji (probable) is the man in orange on the right, given his saffron clothing, long hair and garland; this is an appearance-based candidate only.
