Indoor healing session in a white-draped hall. A long-haired figure in orange robes sits on a cushioned seat with a wooden staff held across his lap, and a tan towel is laid over the seat. Beside him a shaved-headed attendant in orange stands over a table with brown rudraksha beads and printed material. A man in a grey striped shirt crouches at the lower left, guiding a young boy who bends forward toward the seat. Other people and a girl are partly visible at the left edge, and a plate of rudraksha malas sits at the lower right.

A seated boy in a blue striped shirt and grey trousers, with a rudraksha mala, looks up as a woman in a white sari with gold bangles bends toward him and touches his shoulder. A woman in an orange sari sits at left. Men in white shirts with rudraksha malas and ID lanyards lean in. At right, a figure in saffron robes holds a wooden staff toward the boy while another saffron-clad person sits at a table with booklets, a small wooden box and rudraksha beads. Whether the saffron-robed figure at right is a person cannot be established from appearance, so the identity is left unsure.2008-03-24March 24 20082008-03-24A photograph of a darshan or healing blessing in an indoor hall. A long-haired man in saffron-orange sleeveless robes and a rudraksha mala sits at right, extending his hand toward a small child in an orange-yellow shirt who is held and guided by a man in a white shirt with red stripes. Behind them a saffron-robed attendant stands with a rudraksha mala, and a white-clothed table holds offerings and books. At left, older devotees in white shirts and light clothing sit with palms pressed together, and a red curtain hangs behind the stage.

The robed figure has a swept-back long hairstyle and a bare upper arm; appearance is consistent with a person but cues are moderate. Beside them, a shaven-headed young man in orange with a red sash watches, another orange-robed attendant stands behind, and a woman in a purple sari with a long braid bends forward. A young man in white with rudraksha mala stands at left.

Behind them a standing man in white with an orange shawl and a bald-headed man in white with an orange shawl stand by, and a white-clad figure in an orange shawl and rudraksha mala stands at the top. A tray of offerings sits on the white-covered seat, and at lower left two women in white and orange shawls watch, one holding a card.

A man with long swept-back dark hair, wearing an orange shawl, rudraksha mala and orange robe, sits on a white cushion placing his right hand on the head of a devotee; he is a person by appearance, as the page states he gave darshan that day, with cues being long hair, orange clothing and rudraksha beads. A man in white with an orange shawl holds a blessing object near another devotee, who has hands pressed together. A young child in green, a woman with a long braid and gold necklace, a man in orange, and a standing man in white with a rudraksha mala are nearby. A table holds white cloth, booklets and a small brass plate, and a white ceiling fan is visible.2008-03-24A long-haired man in an orange sleeveless robe with a rudraksha mala sits on a chair and reaches to touch the face of a seated young man in a plaid shirt, a healing-style interaction. Around them devotees crowd in: an older man in orange with a neck mala stands behind, a young man with cropped hair in orange, a man in white with a lanyard badge, and a girl in a red blouse with a gold pendant in the foreground. A small white table holds booklets and a bottle, and a red curtain and a pedestal fan are in the background. The scene reads as a free-healing darshan at an indoor event.2008-03-23
