A large screen displays a video-conference grid of nine live feeds of seated groups in different locations. Labels read "NEW ZEALAND", "VICTORIA AUSTRALIA", "CALGARY AMARNATH", "Hello Swamiji from Madrid Spain", "RIO DE JANEIRO", "TUCSON" and "New Jersey OMKAREshwar". Participants sit on mats and cushions in saffron, orange, white and pastel clothing, some with rudraksha malas. In the bottom-right panel a man in a white turban and cream robe sits on an ornate gold throne-like chair with a microphone in front of him; his appearance is only partly visible and the match to a person is uncertain. Deity murtis and a framed portrait appear in some rooms. Around thirty people are visible across the feeds.
