A photograph of a large video-conference screen tiled with many live feeds from different ashrams and centres, shown as a grid of small panels. Visible panels include a group sitting in meditation on a red and white floor, people seated on carpets in a room with a large deity shrine, a man in white in a bright red-accented room, and a woman in a light blue top labelled Hyderabad Gupta Kashi. Panels are captioned with place names such as Oklahoma Aadheenam, Philadelphia, Playa del Carmen-Mexico, Ohio Aadheenam, Houston Kalahasti, Bogota-Colombia, Dallas and Dakota Dunes. Several people in saffron and white clothing sit cross-legged. No individual is clearly identifiable as the a person from the visible frames, so no candidate is flagged.
