A photograph of a darshan scene where a person seated on the left wears a red turban, a red shawl printed with repeated script, rudraksha beads and a leopard-print garment, holding a silver staff and smiling while touching a red printed cloth. Two devotees in front bow with folded hands: one with short dark hair in a red printed shawl and red beaded necklace, the other in a white kurta with a red beaded mala, pressing palms together. Behind them standing devotees wear white kurtas and red malas, with an orange-and-red decorated backdrop and fruit offerings in the lower foreground. The seated figure's identity is not established by appearance, so this is a seated presiding figure rather than a confirmed a person.
