A photograph of a healing darshan session. A figure with long, swept-back dark hair wears an orange sleeveless robe and rudraksha mala, and places his hand on the shoulder of a man in a white shirt who leans in. Behind him, two young attendants in white with orange shawls and beads stand near a table covered with white cloth holding photos, pamphlets, rudraksha beads and sweets. Several devotees watch, including a woman in a white sari with gold border and a man in a striped shirt. The figure's appearance with long hair, orange robe and rudraksha matches the Swamiji cues, so this is a probable Swamiji (probable) giving darshan in person.
