A dense crowd of devotees fills a narrow street at night, packed shoulder to shoulder. Many women wear sarees in blue, orange, green and pink, and several have their palms pressed together in anjali. Men in white shirts and dhotis stand among them, and a few children are held or stand in front. A white van with a Dhyanapeetam sign is parked behind the crowd, and shop signs line the street under warm lamplight.
