dance of Tandav : तांडव नृत्य:

Shiva Tandava means vigorous, full of strength, a dance performed by men. There is a belief in Hinduism that many deities had a good knowledge of dance. Indra, Ganesh, Kalika, Krishna, and Lord Shankar were dancing. This is mentioned in the Puranas. Among all these deities, Lord Shankar is known as a high-class dancer. He has composed an Indian dance. That is why he is called ‘Nataraja’ i.e. king of dance. He taught his disciple Tandu the knowledge of dance. Tandu gave it to Bharatrishi and spread it to the country. Shivaji's dance is known as Thandavanantha. He composed 108 types of Tandava. But currently, only 3 Tandavas exist. Such as Anandatandava, Urdhvatandava, Sandhya Tandava, Sanhar Tandava, Kali Tandava, Vijay Tandava, Gauri Tandava. Natraj's world-famous currency is that of Anand Tandava. Which is also known as "Nandana". Which includes several proposed meanings.

Characteristic of Shiva's dance : शिव के नृत्य की विशेषता :

Nataraja has a drum in his right hand in his posture. Which means "to make", is a fire in the upper left hand. Which means 'to destroy'. The lower right hand is fixed near the chest in the flag posture. It means to protect. The lower left hand is pulled towards the lower left leg. Which means "those who want salvation should surrender to God." The right leg is on a lost stream. It means star. "Their dance is a part of the world's rhythm. Their "temptations are to be crushed." The Ganges rising from the moon adorned on the head and hair on the head means that their dance is endless, never complete 'or in other words, "Life is always permanent. This is the specialty of Nataraja's idol.

Anand Tandava : आनंद तांडव:

Once in a jungle called Targum, 10,000 sages were misleading people in the name of religion. Lord Shiva wanted to punish these sages, he enlisted the help of Lord Vishnu and disguised himself as a yogi and Lord Vishnu as his beautiful wife. Both started living in the Targum forest where the sage lived. The sages were confused when they saw Lord Shiva and Lord Vishnu as husband and wife. He is convinced that Lord Shiva is hindering our activities. Therefore, they started trying to destroy Lord Shiva. He first produced a tiger to destroy Lord Shiva with the power of a mantra. It jumped on the tiger-like Lord Shiva and soon Lord Shiva tore his youngest finger with the nail of the Kannika and wrapped his skin around her body.

The Rishis then formed a serpent for the destruction of Lord Shiva. Who wrapped a snake around Lord Shiva's neck like an ornament. After that, Rishis sent many animals that were destroyed by Shiva, so one named Apasamra Surgeon of White.

Urdhwa Tandav : उर्ध्व तांडव :

After watching the Anand Tandava dance, Lord Vishnu was chanting at Sheshnag. Then the rest of the serpent felt the weight of Lord Vishnu. So Sheesh Nag asked her secret. Vishnu gave the reason for the dance of Lord Shiva. Sheshnag wanted to see this dance. The remaining Nagas practiced penance for years, treating their upper half body as human and half body as Nag. Lord Shiva then promised to do such a dance again in Chidambaram. There are currently two temples where Jaya Chidambaram is located. One of Kali and the other of Lord Shiva. Before Lord Shiva, his disciples expressed a desire to enter Kali's temple, but Kali forbade him from entering. Lord Shiva did a trick and proposed to Kali, "to organize a dance competition between the two of us. One who gets tired of the first dance competition must leave this village and its church." Kali was also an expert in dance so she accepted this instruction of Lord Shiva. The gods were invited as adjudicators of both contestants. The dance started. Shiva first displayed nine interests in dance. Kali copied him. Kali started imitating everything of Shiva, Lord Shiva slowly took off his clothes and started throwing. All of this was unfamiliar to Kali. Violating female boundaries became impossible. Finally, in the final plan, Lord Shiva lifted his right leg straight to the head. Kali was a woman. Unable to do so, he gave up and left the village and temple as planned. The name of this dance is Urdhwa Tandava.

classical dance

Classical dance has meaning, which has scripture. And a dance that has certain rules. Classical dance requires years of training. Earlier, these dances were performed in temples as an adoration of the Lord. Therefore, it is known as the Devalaya dance, which means that devotion is predominant in it. Classical dance is a fully developed form of dance. Classical dances that used to be held in temples then took place in the court of kings and are now performed in theaters. Classical dances of India are Bharatanatyam, Kathak, Kathakali, Kuchipudi, Manipuri, Mohiniattam, and Odissi. Read more...

Folk dance :

There is no country where there is no dance, dance is a straightforward and accurate language. Everyone knows by birth. When there is excess in pleasure and Urmi. Then the urges and emotions in the body come out in a rhythmic way. This is how dance is created because the body moves in a rhythmic way.

The dance is now divided into three types in all parts of the world.

1) folk dance

2) tribal dance

3) classical dance

Comparing all the dances of the world, it seems necessary that religion is associated with dance in every part of the world. Then there is tribal, folk dance, or classical dance. People gather for their own enjoyment on religious or social occasions or in a fair. Folk dance is a dance adopted by people better than tribal dance. You do not need any special training to learn folk dance. Seeing this, people have inherited it. Folk dance is composed of simple body movements and natural vitality and vigor. Applause usually comes in folk dances. Somewhere in a circle, somewhere in a semicircle, somewhere in a row, somewhere men and women get together, sometimes they sing and dance, sometimes with dance. Dance on the beat of a drum somewhere. Although all folk dances have one thing in common, our country dances are seen in different music and different genres, due to different influences of language, customs, costumes, and natural environment.

Importance of Guru

noreply@blogger.com (Padma Gyan) — Sat, 19 Dec 2020 11:29:00 +0530

What is the importance of Guru in Indian dance or Guru writes in detail about disciple tradition?

Indian mythology and culture always consider Guru as supreme. The following verse is an example of this.

"Gururbrahma Gururvishnu Gururdevo Maheshwara"

"Gurursakshat Parabrahma Tasmai Shri Guruve Namah."

Click 👉 हिन्दी

This indicates that the real God is Guru, who is superior to Brahma, Vishnu, and Maheshwara. Similarly, in Indian dance also, Guru has an equal place. The Guru also enjoys a high status in society. Guru is the person who gives knowledge to the ignorant. He brings light into the lives of his disciples. Words cannot speak the greatness of a guru.

In India, the tradition of guru-disciple tradition, teachers, and disciples has been going on since the Vedas. Thanks to the devotion and dedication of some great gurus who have saved Indian art and preserved it till the present century. Guru is the Sanskrit word for 'great' which means a person who is greater than others, one who has the knowledge, one who is scholarly, good-natured, and loving, and who disciplines while teaching.

According to Indian culture, even kings obeyed Guru's orders as they were well experienced and their knowledge was the result of rigorous penance that leads the disciples on the path of truth and salvation. The Guru can be a religious teacher or a Kalguru, the path is the same. The dance has been preserved by the Guru tradition. There is often a misunderstanding that tradition or traditional is irresponsible and narrow. If the place of tradition is properly understood, the truth will be found to the contrary. For those whose ideas are limited and who lack creative imagination, everything is limited, including the scriptures. Such people are unable to see the depth and meaning of knowledge hidden behind the mere words of a particular art and scripture. But for those who have a truly creative imagination, there is always a focal point for the merging of the experience of the guru and personal experience with the scriptures that incorporate dance.

In the Guru tradition, knowledge spreads from the Guru to his disciple and has passed and spread over the centuries. In the old days, there were no schools or academies that taught dance. The student decided on his profession at a very young age and the parents sent him to that particular guru who is an expert. From that day the Guru is their patron. The disciple stays with him and learns the art and the disciple, in turn, helps the Guru and Guru Patni in the household work. The disciple was always in touch with the Guru so that he could have complete knowledge about the subject. In Al Ahmad Dakshina as a Guru, he served the Guru and could give whatever he wanted or ask the Guru what he wanted. All students were treated equally whether it was the king's son or the poor man's son. It did not matter because they all had to serve the Guru in the same way, eat the same food, and sleep together. The story of Lord Krishna and Sudama is the best example of this.

For the upliftment of society and to keep our discipline intact and to maintain our heritage and culture, our great gurus have sacrificed their lives. In this way, we are still able to preserve our ancient dance forms in spite of Muslim invasions and British rule.

By studying these ancient dance forms, young boys and girls are encouraged to follow our old heroes and heroines. They get the right type of entertainment and are also able to develop body and mental discipline. Thus the student of classical dance helps society by spreading our moral values and high views. A student visiting Gurukul to learn classical dance considers this as his profession. He follows the footsteps of his master and sets up an iceberg as a dancer. The Guru guides him as a father, showing his son the right path. On the day of Dussehra in South India, the disciples come to the Guru wherever they are, offer Dakshina and the Guru worships and takes his blessings. This occasion is known as Vidyarambham (beginning of dance). It is basically a sign of thanking the Guru for giving valuable knowledge and guidance. Even today the disciples of South Indian dance and music consider it as a ritual. According to our culture, the Guru leads a very simple life. The progress of students is the motto of Guru. He is a man who is interested in giving rather than taking. This is why the Guru has a respectable place in society. It is believed that the person who honors his gurus gets the fruits of that.

The best example of a guruship relationship is Eklavya who sacrificed his Guru's right thumb as Dakshina and Lord Krishna who went around the world to get Sandipani's son back as Dakshina. So we are proud of our heritage and Guru tradition, we students of Bharatanatyam should show respect to our great gurus- Chinnaiah, Ponnayya, Shivananda. In fact, who preserved this great art through the Guru tradition. Our reverence for the great Guru Late Meenakshi Sundaran Pillai as the greatest Guru in living memory has been studied by most senior contemporaries under him. Thanks to Rukmini Devi who laid a strong foundation for Gurukulvas, thus giving intensive training in all aspects of art. Siddhendra Yogi's strict gurukul has helped preserve the Kuchipudi dance. And to this day, they follow the same strict discipline imposed on them by Siddhendu Yogi. In addition to rigorous training in classical dance which includes a series of difficult physical exercises required to make the body soft and flexible, they have to study religious texts, Sanskrit as well as music both theoretical and practical.

The popularity of Kathakali and Mohiniyattam in the present day is credited to the Gurukul of Mahakavi Vallathol, who persuaded young boys and girls to study Kathakali, Mohiniyattam, and Bharata-Natyam. Free training is given. In his time, training started at 3.00 am and ended at 8.00 pm in the evening. A generation of young gurus and dancers have assured to continue the tradition with renewed vigor and inspiration.

I hope you found this article useful in understanding the Importance of guru.

Origin of indian dance

The origins of Indian dance described by Natyashastra.

Click 👉 हिन्दी

Information about how Indian dance came into existence comes from the ancient scripture "Natyashastra". Whose author is Bharatrishi? The gods requested Brahma, the creator of the universe, to create something that should be such that it can be seen and heard. Brahmaji thought a lot which was the four Vedas. Taking the good things out of it, he made the fifth Veda which was named 'Natya Veda'.

The first performance of this play was done by Bharatrishi on the stage built by Vishwakarma with the help of his 100 sons and Gandharvas, nymphs. Everyone liked the play very much, but the demons got annoyed and angrily asked Brahma why he has shown us weakness in this play.

If you are the creator and father of all of us, then why have some of your creations been shown as good and some as bad? We are very saddened by this. We did not expect much from you. Then Brahma replied to the demons, "I have made this play not only for the pleasure of gods or demons but to show the values of the three worlds. Made to show, those who follow the rules of the policy and are enthusiastic get the fruits of this. It controls those who are undisciplined, encourages the warrior, wisdom to the ignorant, and a source of joy to the mourners. This is connected with the work of all classes of people, high and low, aimed at education, entertainment, and spending time.

Shivaji was very happy to see this play. He commanded his disciple 'Tand' that you teach Bharatarishi Tandavanritya, mother Parvati was also pleased and taught Bharatarishi lasya dance. Over time, Bharatrishi taught other sages and it spread like wildfire in the world.

Parvati taught lasya dance type to Usha, daughter of Banasur. Who taught the women of the city coming to Dwarka after marriage and gradually the women of Saurashtra learned this dance form and this dance form spread all over the country. Thus the story of the origin of dance we get from "Natyashastra".

From this we can know that dance has existed in India since ancient times, it has changed over time. ‘Dance’ also evolved, taking on new forms.

As this art is already associated with religion, it has been performed in temples for centuries and got the name of Devikala, or temple dance. There have been many changes in dance and many types of dance have been born, its names are tribal dance, folk dance, classical dance vs. There were also rifts in classical dance. Bharatnatyam, Kathakali, Manipuri, Kathak, etc., there were innumerable variations of folk dances. In all these dances, religion has been inseparably linked. Tandava and lasya types have been incarnated in both classical and folk.

Thus Indian dance, which was born by Brahma, Bharatarishi made its systematic scripture, that "dance" is being fully developed as a class today, giving pride to India, is being respected.

Role of Indian Dance in Society

noreply@blogger.com (Padma Gyan) — Mon, 14 Dec 2020 23:23:00 +0530

Role of Indian Dance

This can be considered the golden age of Indian dance. If we turn the pages of history, we can see the sufferings of our predecessors. The Muslim era saw its worst days as girls were used to dancing in the court of Muslim kings to entertain guests. Bhakti was replaced by the following Shringar. The costumes were also designed for entertainment purposes. Hence dance had no place in society and the dancing girls could not dream of normal family life.

Click 👉 हिन्दी

Indian dance music and art were not given any recognition under British rule. They tried to promote Western music and dance as Indian festivals and Indian temples lost their importance. The Devadasis also lost their patronage and the Devadasis left the prostitutes. Hence the quality of dance was very low in the British period. Dancers had to explore an alternative profession to survive. So the quality of the dance went down because the Guru could not fully involve himself in the art. In the meantime, temple dances were abolished by the government act. So the devadasis and musicians associated with the dance performance lost their livelihood. This was the time when these dancers and musicians entered Indian cinema. Thus, adulteration of the quality of dance of those who can make a fortune from the cinema fortunăte by the mudra school of Indian classical dude. Others had to be forced to survive.

At that time there were many circles such as Kalakshetra, Uday Shankar's Belly troupe, Madame Maneka's troupe. The Little Belly troupe and some other artists took some artists into their court. Artists were not educated in those days. Therefore they could not reach the public or explain or explain to the public about their particular dance form. Therefore they relied on "managers" to perform this task. This was the era of Guru tradition, where students used to go to the Guru's place and perform their spiritual practice. One disadvantage was the language problem because the Vidavanas could not explain the gurus as common. Language, students could not understand the nuances of dance.

1960 saw an improvement of all dance styles. This was due to the higher class or educated class taking dance as a divine art. This achievement is due to unstoppable efforts. Many dancers, dance gurus, and great musicians. This was also because educated dancers' studied the scriptures and reached its root. Government and public organizations helped work for qualified students and scholars were able to uncover many hidden factors. The dance, first and foremost of all classical dances, made the costume authentic and traditional. Classical music also gained popularity and all classical dances presented music in a traditional form. The theme reverts to devotion and the atmosphere of the temple is built in our auditorium steps. The government also arranges dance ceremonies so that visiting artists will see senior artists and learn from their contributions to the arts. States have Sangeet Natak Akademi for the benefit of artists. The old guru works have been published by the government and welfare organizations and they were rewarded with cash and prizes.

Bharatanatyam, Kathak, Manipuri, and Kathakali but Odissi, Kuchipudi, and Mohiniattam are considered equally authentic classical forms. Audio cassettes and video cassettes have also helped to popularize classical dances and will help in handing out compositions to the next generation. Contribution of Ragini Devi, Kapila Vatsyayan. Mohan Khokhar and Sunil Kothari have written valuable articles and books on classical dance. The four classical forms initially recognized were the television media helped popularize the dance forms because T. V. But there are many programs that help the common man to see, understand and enjoy our national heritage. This has helped the public to understand good and bad performance. It is an encouragement for parents to teach dance to their daughters under able gurus. The last twenty years had not seen many male dancers as there was an unsafe feeling among them in society but still, male dancers are taking interest as artists and dance gurus. There are many conferences all over India, there are celebrations where we can see good dance programs. In Tamil Nadu, we have many promotions by arranging dance festivals. In Kerala temples still survive Kerala arts like Kathak Kudiyattam and Krishnanattam.

Our classical dances are praised and learned in the US and other European countries such as abroad. Every year many dance groups visit foreign countries and are well received by foreign audiences.

Among the sculptures excavated at Mohan-jo-der is a statue of a dancing woman. Through this, it can be assumed that the dance must have existed even at that time. We get definite proof of the dance story from the Vedic period and we get information from the literature that in that time also there are references for dancers, class dancers for dancers - for dance cars and for skilled dancing singers. Just say ‘Shaluj’ to the singer, show the types of Bhat, Charan, Magadha, Bhan NATO, which perform bhajans and entertainment.

In the Vedic period, dance was a means of entertainment for the Aryans. The dance is usually performed in the open. This dance is performed in two different ways than both men and women. On business and religious occasions, when men performed war dances, their breasts were covered with gold, that is, they wore gold ornaments covering the chest. Men and women all take part in group dances.

Religious dances are also mentioned in the Vedas. There is a mention that during the festival of Mahavrat, the girls danced around the fire with a pot of water on their heads. After this action, the pot water is put into the fire. This action was taken to invoke the rain. Another mention is that at the time of Ashwamedha Yagna, girls used to go around the Yajna with water and dance. At the time of this dance, she would hold a pot over her head, hit her feet on the ground, and sing, "This is nectar." Another mention is that women used to dance at weddings. The Yajur Veda mentions that people often repeated the word 'Iyati' when they sang verses. It was a kind of pantomime. At that time water epics will be used. Dhol, Tali, Dance with Veena. The bamboo dance was very popular in the Rigvedic period. It is mentioned.

If we talk about Puranas after the Vedas, it mentions that instead of dancing with kings and their courtiers, the Bhagavata Purana and Vishnu Purana refer to the dance of Agni, Markandeya. The Shiva Purana mentions that Lord Shiva was very fond of dance and that is why he is given the adjective Natapriya and Nataraja, Lord Shiva taught people lance dance. We know Parvati and Kalika as the Goddess of Shakti. Called the expert of the organ, Kalika danced the Tandav dance to destroy the demons. Another mention is that Indra, the king of the gods, was a lover of music and dance. Menaka, Rambha, Swayamprabha, Urvashi, Dandagami, Gopali, Purvachi, Chitrasen Mishra Keshi, etc. were musicians and dancers in Indra's court. When Arjuna was cursed, Chitrasena used to teach dance in Indra's court. Arjuna himself was also an expert on dance. Practicing dance with the Gandharvas, the Mahabharata mentions that in the Gupta dynasty of the Pandavas, Arjuna was impotent as a dance teacher in the court of King Virat.

Thus, in ancient times, the kings, princesses of India knew the art of dance. Separate rooms were kept for dancing. The theater, known as Vishramandap. In one such dance hall, Arjun taught dance and music to Uttara, the daughter of King Virat. At one point in the Mahabharata, from the dialogue between Arjuna and Draupadi, it appears that the dancers were considered inferior. Other arts were more respected than dance. If the dance was given a high place in this mythological period, the decline of the dance in the intervening period led to its development. King Maharajas considered dance as a means of entertainment. Literature for dance before and after the intellectual period mentions that poet Kalidas was learning dance and music. It is mentioned that Chandrapad was learning dance and music at the time of Bana. There are many examples in the state courts of India where dancers are considered as adornments of the state. The divine vehicle mentions that King Rudrayan plays the veena and Chandravati dances to the tune of her veena. The king of the Gupta dynasty, Samrat Samundra, was proficient in Gupta music and dance. There is a pile of evidence for that. Describing Agarivarma, Kalidas writes that Achieve competed with dancers and actors. Devendra mentions in Uttarayana that Rao plays Udayan Visha and dances to the music of his wife Veena. At this point, the king bites his nails. Then the queen gets angry and says, "Why did you ruin my dance?" In Mahavamsa, King Parakramabapu is said to have built a pavilion near his palace to enjoy the best music and dance to the joy of the eyes. His young wife Roopmati was an expert in dance.

The foundation of dance in India is very old and deep. There are enough examples to prove that dance in temples and religious ceremonies in Indian history - dancing in front of idols in the morning and evening was the daily ritual of the temple. The women who performed these dances were called Devadasi. There were many rich temples. The inscriptions of the fourth year Raja of Tanjore mention that in the 11th century financial assistance was received from the king and people for the expenses of the temple and the dancers. The king collected 500 devadasis for the temple of Tanjore. He was regarded as an expert teacher in demonstrating the values of dance. In India, religion and art were interlinked, which was the religious influence of the Mughals. Prior to his arrival, there was a devotional atmosphere and culturally rich.

Muslim culture was quite different from Indian culture. The Mughals lived in more luxury than the Hindus. A new class of business dancers emerged in his kingdom. There was a widespread belief that dance was a means to an end. Great families ignored dance because of this. Thus dance became separate from religion. And lost its importance as a part of society. Thus, Indian dance has long been in a state of obscenity due to its association with the immoral class. Evolution period - For the past 30 years, India has become a master in its dance form. Art attracted and encouraged everyone's attention. Due to which artists like Uday Shankar, Ram Gopal raised awareness about Indian dance abroad and made special contributions. After India's independence, many dance schools and dancers are spread across the country. Every year, many Indian dancers travel abroad, many books on Indian dance are published, and various works on different aspects are published. Thus, if we expect to get our old reputation and name in a hurry, it does not count as a belief.

Current state: The location of dance in India has changed. There is a new awakening in the art of dance. In various parts of India, people have started to recreate the dance. Indian people have started taking interest in new classical dances. Not only Indians but foreign dance experts also come to India to learn Indian dance and go to their country to train their art. We are performing our dance in the theater instead of just the temple. Not only classical dances but folk dances and tribal dances have started experimenting in the theater.
