To see and be seen is Darsan

We talk about ‘receiving’ darsan because the eyes of the deity see you too.

Sai Baba, Jesus, Guru Nanak, Ganesh... they are all here, sub-contracted by the city to protect the architecture from bodily fluids.

No one dares pee or spit on them, or anywhere near them as the gods can see in 180 degrees.

The power of Darsan is how hundreds of piss and pan soaked walls in Delhi are now places where you can make eye contact with god.
