A photograph of a flat-screen monitor displaying a nine-panel video grid of remote devotee groups joined to a satsang. Most panels show groups of people seated in homes or halls with ritual setups: decorated deity altars, kalasha pots, flower garlands and oil lamps. Printed name placards are visible in some panels, including one reading SINGAPORE and one reading OHIO. The monitor sits beside a dark second screen and a blue-lit display on the left.

A monitor shows a nine-panel video grid of satsang groups in different locations, linked by live video. Top-left panel shows people seated beside a temple altar with a sign reading OHIO. Centre-bottom panel shows a seated group with a sign reading SINGAPORE. Bottom-right panel shows a figure in orange and pink robes with a tall crown and rudraksha mala, seated on a gold-ornate throne with hands in a teaching gesture, consistent with the page's Swamiji claim but shown on a screen, so a depiction. Other panels show seated devotees, a temple with deity murtis, and yoga-style seating on mats. The monitor is in front of a second dark screen.

A signboard on the floor reads GUADELOUPE CENTER and a panel shows the word OHIO. The monitor sits on a red carpet beside a black device cable.

A flat-screen monitor displays a grid of live video feeds from multiple satsang centres. Tiles show groups of devotees seated on mats and rugs in various rooms, some with white or orange clothing, flower decorations and lamps. A tile labelled HOUSTON and another with an OHIO sign are visible, along with a flag-like marker. On the left monitor, a tile shows a figure in orange robes seated on a throne-like seat with a golden backdrop and candles, and a small tile on the right shows a woman in orange seated before flowers. The screen displays people on screens rather than physical people in the room, and the photo shows the monitor in a dim room with an orange cloth below.
