A seated man in a red-orange turban and saffron-red robe with a gold-trimmed border sits in a carved wooden chair, smiling broadly and extending his right arm toward a young girl with long dark hair in a white t-shirt who reaches toward him. He wears layered rudraksha-style bead necklaces and a purple beaded bracelet. Behind them, a seated audience in white kurtas and dark red shawls fills the hall, including a woman on the left in a white outfit with a dark red shawl and bead mala and another woman in a green patterned top with a red bindi. Swamiji (probable): the seated man in the turban, ornate beaded necklaces and saffron robe, in person, giving darshan to a child.
