Evening crowd scene at a satsang in Karaikudi, Tamil Nadu. In the centre, a man in an orange-saffron robe and matching orange turban stands with palms pressed together in namaskar, eyes lowered, with a white flower garland hanging from his neck and a rudraksha mala. Around him devotees in white dhotis and shirts, one in a pale blue checked shirt, stand close together. In the lower left a girl in a white top with flowers in her hair stands beside a large garland of pink, white and green flowers. A small purple bird logo sits at upper left and a faint copyright overlay is visible at lower right. The man has distinctive long hair, saffron-orange robes and rudraksha adornment, so he is a person in person.
