A flat-screen monitor, branded VU, shows a split live video link. On the left, a woman in a dark cardigan over an orange top stands with palms pressed together in namaste, and a seated audience fills a bright hall with white walls and a projection screen. On the right, a figure in a pink-orange saffron wrap with a gold-trimmed border sits cross-legged on a purple cushion before an ornate silver throne, wearing a long beaded rudraksha-style mala and a red bindi, with long swept-back hair. A hand in a red sleeve reaches toward the screen from the foreground. The figure matches the appearance cues of a person, shown on the video feed rather than in person.
