A photograph of a busy small-town street in Tamil Nadu with a red-and-pink banner on the left announcing a satsang titled in Tamil, with a portrait of a man in white head-wrap on the banner, hung from poles beside the road. Strings of red and yellow balloons and small flags stretch across the street over tarmac, and a few people walk and ride bicycles and motorbikes in the distance. Shops, a green-fronted shop and a tall telecom tower line the scene under a clear blue sky. The banner portrait is a printed depiction, not a physical person present.
