A large wall screen shows a grid of live video feeds from several satsang locations, each panel captioned with a place name such as Toronto Kailasam, Vakia Shivalokam, San Jose Madurai, Guadeloupe, East London UK, Houston Kailasi, Singapore Singapore and Los Angeles Arunachala. Participants sit on mats and cushions in white and coloured clothes, some with folded hands, others seated on sofas. A woman in a pink headscarf and a man in a grey kurta are visible in one panel, and a woman in a red sari stands at the far right beside a man at a microphone. The screen is a photograph of a display, so the people visible are on screens, not physically present, and the frame carries a copyright and source notice.
