A delegation of dancers will be visiting Tiruvannamalai in the upcoming week with their message of Love and Inspiration in two dance programmes, Dancing Tara and The Dances of Universal Peace. The venues and times of these function are listed later in this posting.
The purpose of these functions are to uplift and inspire both the paticipants and humanity through the sacred arts.
To learn more about the work of Tara Dhatu, and view parts of the Mandala Dance of the 21 Praises of Tara please view the below video. Which shows that music and dance can be vehicles of spiritual celebration.
Dancing Tara
Tara Dhatu
Healing the Earth, bringing peace to the heart, inspiring and uplifting, the dancing Taras dive deep into their own empowerment, sending their blessings, their prayers, into the world.
Turning the mind away from self obsession and into the wonder and glory of the interconnected web of life, we exalt in One Heart, One Mind, One Magnificent, Pulsing Universe.
Dancing the Goddess, circles of dancers throughout the world gather to celebrate, reaching within themselves to balance the feminine side of their nature.
Dances of Universal Peace
Spiritual practice brings us face to face with Life and Truth, prior to the concepts and beliefs of the person, opening to our true nature - authentic, unguarded, beyond form and imbued with the spaciousness and love that connects all.
The Dances of Universal Peace and Walking Concentrations are spiritual practice in motion. Drawing on the sacred phrases, scripture, and poetry of the many spiritual traditions of the earth, the Dances blend chant, live music and evocative movement into a living experience of unity, peace and integration. This taste of our true nature - as Universal Peace - opens to the possibility of a deep spiritual revolution within the person.
To view a video of a Dance of Universal Peace in Amsterdam check below. The Dance of Universal Peace is intended to bring people together. The dance is influenced by a branch of Sufism, which concentrates on the heart whilst honouring other traditions.
