A photograph of large video screens showing a multi-site webinar, with tiled live feeds of groups seated on floors and chairs in rooms across several cities. Labels read Dallas, Atlanta Ujjain, Greensboro North Carolina, Chicago, Rio de Janeiro and London. Participants wear white, saffron, blue and patterned clothing; a few sit with rudraksha malas, and the London feed shows a flower-decorated puja arrangement with orange cloth and marigolds. The image is a photo of the screens rather than a single room, with many people visible across the feeds.
