Photo of a darshan gathering in a hall with a red curtain and a white throne-like chair at right. A long-haired figure in a sleeveless orange robe stands at centre, clasping hands with a man in a red-and-white striped shirt. Beside them stands a man in an orange shawl with a red stole, and a young saffron-clad attendant. A woman in a yellow shawl stands behind the throne, and a tray of fruit, sweets, flowers and garlands sits on the white cloth at right. Several devotees in white and orange sit or stand in the foreground and background. The orange-robed centre figure has distinctive long swept-back hair and orange clothing, so this is a probable Swamiji in person at a Sarva Darshan.
