Tiles show groups of devotees seated in living rooms and ashram halls: a Houston Kalahasti Adheenam tile with two women seated on a sofa, a Singapore Singapuram tile with people in white and red seated before a shrine with deity murtis, Hyderabad Adheenam with a man in white seated before a framed photo, Nithyananda University Paris with people seated near a fireplace, and Hong Kong Sirkazhi, Charlotte Srisailam, Philip Island Australia and Netherlands tiles. Tiles show seated groups, some in orange or white clothing, with a kalasha-style decoration visible on one tile. Physical people are seen only on the screen, so the count of people in the room itself is zero, while the number of people shown across the tiles is in the range of roughly 21-100.2015-02-01Photo 11742810September 27 20142014-09-27 +1 copiesJuly 19 20162016-07-19January 16 20162016-01-16
