A screen displaying a multi-panel video conference collage of satsang groups from different centres. Panels show small groups seated in homes and rooms: Greensboro North Carolina, Atlanta Ujjain, Calgary Amarnath, Charlotte Srinivasam, Toronto Kailash and Dallas Dwarka captions appear on the panels. Several participants wear white, saffron and blue clothing. In the bottom right panel, a man in saffron robes and a rudraksha mala sits on an ornate golden throne flanked by brass lamps, with a carved arch behind him, and appears to be the central speaker. The arrangement is a graphic composite of separate video feeds, with no physical people in the room photographed directly.
