Consciousness isn't but darshan is. Darshan is some sort of emanation of
subtle energy resulting from "contact" with the Absolute but transmitted
through a relative body/mind. As such, it only radiates so far, like a
light, a radio transmission, etc. In fact, the latter is a good example. The
electromagnetic field is omnipresent but transmissions via that field have a
limited range. They dissipate over distance.

Yes. Same with every saint I've met. Hence, being in the proximity of saints
is recommend by scriptures.

I'm not convinced of that.
