OMG! Whoever recorded this video missed the whole point. Some of the most important poses were completely ignored and they focused on the face of the dancer. She is fantastic though.
This video could really benefit from having way more context. What is the historic connection exactly between this dance form and the iconography of Shiva in the MIA sculpture? It is merely that both reference Shiva? Or is there a far more substantive connection?
By my extremely barebones understanding of Hindi mysticism, it may have something to do with the Hindu version of The End. Right now - according to Hinduism - Kali, Goddess of (among many other things) Time is dancing over Shiva's chest. The specifics elude me, but this is meant to symbolize how Kali creates cycles of strife (i.e. the normal cycles of life in the universe where you suffer Life, progress or regress on your path as a bodhisattva based on how you bore all that, then either achieve enlightment through what you have learnt and experienced or tossed back in for another spin) When she stops dancing, Shiva gets up, then starts dancing himself. When _He_ does it, though, it is both the trigger and cause of the collapse of the universe AFAIK.
If I had to pick a favourite deity it would be Shiva or Mahakala, who is shiva anyway, because his role it to commit what many would consider atrocious in destroying what we hold dear. His role is to remind us of the impermanence of reality and expose us to the truth, that is enlightenment.
according to vedas all three are same .. gods different names represent his chahracteristics and qualities even u can search sanskrit meaning of shiva vihnu and brahma, other than these 3 names he hs thousands of other names , but its highly interpreted to make a buisness out of it
Not an expert but as far I know there are several interpretations. The three of them constitute the so-called "Trimurti" (improperly translated as "Trinity"). Whether they are the same or not it's very hard to say, consider that Hinduism is not a proper "religion" but rather a family of religions, many of them dedicated to just one of these gods (Shivaism, Vishnuism, etc). Let alone local cults and autonomous sects. I don't know, I've always handled this theory of an underlying unity in polytheism with care, not because I completely reject it but just because I've always felt that it's a subtle strategy of monotheism to penetrate it...
Great dances great dancer but I bet all of those statues are stolen from actual village temple altars in India and smuggled out .. to Minneapolis. Unbelievable theft
@@machucagostoso9073 But yours must be real......lmaooo. You are aware that Hinduism has diverse ideologies. Some you don't even need to believe in God.
@@imacarguy4065 I never said you are to believe in God it’s the manifestation of false Lords and idols lol. I just laugh whenever I see people pray towards a man made statue 🤡 🤣
Mesmerizing. Such a beautiful performance. So much expression and emotion. Thank you so much for sharing this.
This dance is so professionally performed that I really see god Shiva and not a female dancer. It's so scary and fascinating at the same time.
I love the ancient instrument playing in the back. Its so hauntingly beautiful.
WHAT A BEAUTIFUL DANCE. IT'S VERY ENTERTAINING.
Her breath was very steady, she is meditating while dancing.💗
Yes, yes. All the beautiful and sacred movements I remember from childhood, when we would go watch Matao and company. I can't possibly sit still.
Beauty beauty beauty My son went to school at MCAD.
Jai Shiva Mahadeva! Jai Ma!
Her art is glorious.
Powerful.Beautiful. thank you for sharing dancing light.

Exactly, they shouldn't have zoomed in. Her full body movement was to be captured in one frame
Adoration for Lord Shiva
Beautiful to watch
I ran the other way 25 years ago........A MILLION MILES and still going. WOW.....
That was amazing! Thank you! -🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
3:49. This is it. The point of the ritual when things get serious.
Consulta: existe documentación sobre las posturas-movimientos de esta danza?, dónde se pueden encontrar en internet?
Para Para Para! Guru Om!
beautiful

Wicked
Yea we know your mother is wicked
Her skirt likes a peacock tail when she dancing her legs. Amazing culture
🇮🇳✨
she's so beautiful
I'm HYPNOTIZED.
I wonder how many dances at their origins were actually rituals. This is one.
If I had to pick a favourite deity it would be Shiva or Mahakala, who is shiva anyway, because his role it to commit what many would consider atrocious in destroying what we hold dear. His role is to remind us of the impermanence of reality and expose us to the truth, that is enlightenment.
wahouuuuuuuh
As if she has seen Lord Shiva ❤❤❤
Nice magik
🙏🙏🙏
I wonder if Shiva, Vishnu and Brahma are the 3 forms of God, which was is God, the 3 of them put together? Is that safe to ask
God is who?
bc i dunno never get that answer i wonder maybe god not in picture: i dunno...
