UN- EARTH
This
interdisciplinary work combines dance, movement, storytelling and
improvisation to re-tell mythological metaphors in a contemporary way.
Keeping with the theme of the BHUTA YAGNA and ecology, Anita and her
team of three musicians and set/lighting designers have created multiple
narratives to reimagine our cultural metaphors.
Mahavishnu and his eternal image atop the milky ocean... the chants of
Margazhi and the urgent call of the earth are all part of the
voices in UN-EARTH

About Pancha Maha Yajna - An Evening of Dance and Recognition of Inspiring Role Models
Comments
Dear Ms. Anita,
I am a follower of Swami Dayanand and I attended the Pancha Maha Yagna
program. The concept you chose was very good and it was an eye
opener.
Though Swamiji is 82+, he is very practical. He must have been
pleasantly surprised. We invoke Ishwara everywhere (every creature, be
it river, mountain, tree, all living creatures) and as Swamiji mentioned
in his closing remarks, you have indirectly informed all of us to be
more responsible. This is Vedantic view and you are perfectly
right. Your contribution is great.
