A photograph of a darshan moment indoors. A man with long, swept-back black hair and a yellow-ochre tilak on his forehead sits on a raised seat in orange-saffron cloth, wearing many rudraksha malas on his arms and chest. He extends his right arm and touches the head of a young boy in a red shirt, who bows his head. Behind them a woman in a white top and a curly-haired woman in white with red dots watch, and a girl in white stands nearby. Red drapery hangs behind the seat and a camera operator is visible at upper left.

Red draped fabric hangs behind, and a camera on a tripod and a cameraman appear at left. Several other people in light and pink clothes stand in the background of a warmly lit hall. The figure wears a bare-chested orange-red cloth, and a rudraksha bracelet is visible on the arm. The cues for a candidate are present, but the face and identity cannot be confirmed from appearance alone, so the figure is described by role as a blessing giver.2012-07-19July 14 20132013-07-14July 18 20122012-07-18A photograph of a long-haired man in an orange-saffron garment with a yellow tilak on his forehead and rudraksha beads around his neck and arm, placing his right hand on the head of a young boy in a red-and-white checked shirt who bows forward with eyes closed.
