Photograph of a devotional darshan at night indoors on white sheets. A long-haired man in an orange turban and orange shawl, wearing a rudraksha mala, sits on a white-draped seat with hands resting on his lap, receiving devotees. Two shaved-headed devotees in orange robes prostrate face-down on the white cloth, with pink rose petals scattered before them. Behind them, standing and seated followers in orange robes watch; one holds up a small camera. A seated woman in white with a red bindi sits among them, and bare feet of onlookers in white and lavender are visible at the top. The seated man with the turban and mala appears to be a probable Swamiji, identified by his turban, orange robes and rudraksha mala.
