A photograph of a darshan moment at a large gathering in Tamil Nadu. A man in a light blue turban and white robe with a red-orange shawl stands at left, his right hand pressed to the forehead of a young man in a pale blue button-up shirt with an ID badge clipped to his pocket, whose right palm is raised and eyes are closed. Behind them, a crowd of seated and standing people in white, cream and orange clothing fills the hall. The turbaned figure is a person by appearance cues (turban, long hair, orange-red shawl), though the face is not visible; the identification is uncertain.
