Bang on! Great observation..In fact Odissi dance form takes its postures from idols carved on temples and other ancient architecture

ukposts.info/have/v-deo/aJZkqIOthaaFqX0.html

@@niharika8288 no it's the other way. They builders took the dancers as reference. Bc back then and sometimes in these days too these ladies dance in the temple for the main deity in the temple.

Try 3,000 years

Much older than that. Might be the first divine smile ever

I totally agree with you. It is so frustrating that the person filming got too close to the dancer and concentrated so much on her face and arms. The whole body makes the dance.

@@nct948 Agreed, it's so beautiful how every little detail of the body is meaningful in traditional dances. No part should be left out.

​ Seems to have captured it all from what I see. There were whole body shots, close ups, and some panning out to take in the whole ambiance.

Dagadi Dagadi da. Dagadi Dagadi da. Dagadi da.

@@Kare_and_Compassion There should never be close ups in dance. Dance is the entire body movement. I'm so frustrated after 2 minutes. I'm leaving.

Hi Alliene - that is so sweet! Thank you for sharing

Okay. You are still coloniser-neanderthal! Your inhuman kind will suffer karmic-colonization, slavery, and much more, until generational stress is also etched -deep into your narcissitic-genes. You are not humans.

@Kalyosa YOU wht/YT NARCISSISTIC NEANDERTHALS NEED TO LOOK IN THE MIRROR AND KNOW THAT YOU DO NOT LOOK LIKE 'BRAD PITT'. WHY DO YOU NEANDERTHALS ALWAYS BRING HIM UP AS IF HE IS THE DEFAULT WESTERN APPEARANCE??? AND YOU ALL THINK YOU'VE 'INDIVIDUALLY' CONTRIBUTED TO SCIENCE AND INVENTIONS!!! WHAT AN UNINTELLIGENT, NARCISSISTIC, DELUSIONAL BUNCH! YOU ARE GENETICALLY R-TARDED! ABOUT 90% OF YOU ARE SERIOUSLY DELIRIOUS WITH 'NARCISSITIC PERSONALITY DISORDER'! YOU LITERALLY NEED TO BE REMINDED THAT YOU DO NOT RESEMBLE A COMPLETE STRANGER (BRAD ARMPIT/PETTE)! IT'S AS IF YOU HAVE A 'IDENTITY-DISORDER'! SMH. YOU REALLY ARE A PERSISTENT RABBIS UPON MANKIND THE NATURAL WORLD, AND MUCH OF THE WORLD ATROCITIES WERE AND ARE STILL COMMITTED BY YOU ALIENS!!!! 🤬 IN REALITY MOST Wht/YT PEOPLE ARE INDISTINGUISHABLE FROM SWINES-ESPECIALLY THE OLDER THEY AGE! 🐖🇬🇧 PEOPLE OPEN YOUR EYES!

Yes ❤

History is one thing, culture is another. The current culture of India is being obliterated by capitalism and hindutva fanatics. It's horrible to watch in real time. Pluralism is dying, historical diversity is being rewritten. It's a tragic tale.

​@@grasshopperye3593 What Hindutave Fanatics 😂😂😂. How and what kind of historical diversity being rewritten plz explain. Hinduism Buddhism Jainism and Sikhism are indegenous culture of India. Not Abhramic one

The disease called Bollywood is slowly but surely destroying this glorious culture. A sad fact, but with artists like Maryam, there is still hope.

We're trying! It belongs to all of humanity! It needs to be saved from Western influence.

@@silverbullet3939 Interesting thought. Because it seems like all cultures need saving from other cultures whether it is from east or west and vice versa.

The 4th Reich what do you mean bro? And who are ya calling snake worshipper?

Thats what Indian classical dance teaches us "To control over your mind, body"..Just like Yoga😊

Oh wow, that's awesome!! I would not have caught that if you hadn't mentioned it. Thank you for that! 🙌

Thank you for your lovely comment and noticing the subtle and incredibly deep layers of the dance! Many blessings

Oh, I cried too to this! Only I didn't realize why, I mean, it's just so gentle and happy and she looks otherworldly and yet human... I am very touched! Amazing!!! I love this.

that building isn't one of the traditional Indian architectures so it should be quite new I guess.

I think all of these dances must have something in common, 'cause they all give so much importance to the story being told, and the narrative expressed by hand gestures and facial expressions

The bells are called 'Ghungroo'.

Search 'Shiv shambo/Indian raga' . It's a classical bhartnatyam dance video.

@@KakashiHatake-sw2sy спасибо!

Bob Dewey, I completely agree with you. Dance and music is universal. Some in the Christian world think dancing is evil, but I beg to differ.

@MsLuminous1111 unfortunately you have some misconceptions. Here dance is not learnt based on their religious preferences. It would be great if people learnt that religion and spirituality are not the same thing. Have a good day.

@MsLuminous1111 just because somebody is muslim doesn't make them middle eastern, sis. there are muslims in india, muslims in malaysia (a predominantly muslim country), indonesia, china, etc.

@MsLuminous1111 India has the largest Muslims population And this dance form is called Odissi dance a cultural dance of Odisha state of India . This is not about religion, it's our culture.Anyone can learn this

@ Poverty is everywhere seems even in ur mind by ur comment

There are gharanas who teach their styles to their family members. And one famous school in in madras who takes only kids. Many schools do take older people but they are not particular about styles. It takes atleast 2 years to learn basics. And you can perform at earliest 6 year mark.

Thank you so much for your kind comment! It does take a lot of dedicated practice. 🙏

All are beautiful including kuchipudi and Bharatanatyam

Wow! Learning to appreciate it even more considering the efforts taken by dancers Of this type

at least 12. At least

Come on, why the useless comparison and the superlatives? You cant compare the classical dances. But if you really want to, Bharatanatya is the most comprehensive form of Indian dance.

Thank you so much for your kind words, I am so glad you are feeling the resonance! 🙏

Я тоже заметила сходство с балетом, очень может быть что истоки в Индии❤

Sodomite

It's Indian Classical dance, Odissi, millenium old.

Spasibo Balshoya serbija

I know several Odissi dance teachers in Canada and the USA. Where are you situated? Odissi cannot be learned properly through Skype or Zoom

Thank you so much for your lovely and kind comment! 🙏🙏🙏❤

With the invention of the digital world. We can preserve, see & share this culture to the world. :)))

Ditto

You are always welcome.

I too am so grateful to the people who revived odissi! 🙏

India have regions of temperatures from -50 degree celcius to +50 degree you can select the region of temperature which suits u..

Welcome ❤️

India have many temperatures it's just a another stereotype creating by west we have -50 degree to +50 degree temperature

India has all climates and geographical features. That's the reason it's called a subcontinent. You can live in India in the sub zero remote mountains, cold deserts, hot deserts, tropical rainforests, lush plains, plateau, coastal or even tropical islands

@@pacificpacific okay, forgive me, I must have lived in one of the hot, dry areas in a past life, because that's the part I love so much. Is that better?

Maryam is Persian . I don't think she's a Hindu . try this performance. ukposts.info/have/v-deo/n5h8onehjq-mtWw.html

She's a Muslim

@Flora Fence her name is kind of islamic but art doesn't have any religion for me atleast

We’re not in the least two dimensional. Spend some time exploring Western culture and you’ll find marvels. You just won’t find them in modern western entertainment or media. We’re not without our own rich culture-we’re just doing a really good job of ignoring and forgetting it.

If you miss the connection brother, you're already connected and its tugging back at you. There's nothing in the universe that is not Brahm.

@@TheGrimStoic Like the Cadillac?

Yes brother India is mother of All religion grandmother of arts science mathematics and tradition .do yo know oldest surving philosophy books are Vedas which more than 2000 BC old more than 4000 years old.

Love Ukraine from India, I pray for peace

Long time ago we all be Vedic also our Slavic language is very similar Sanskrit..I think we need understand that exist hidden parts of history

Google translate?

Such sublime grace.

That may be the point of having the long pant. Foot movement distracts.

gforce no, in most dances, every single movement has a purpose and meaning, and especially with how intricate the footwork is in this dance I would’ve loved to see it

*Nritya

Trust me .. its always the opposite! God bless ..

it's the other way around actually.

Nation boundaries and religion don't change shared history and culture. :)

Those hand gestures are dance moves , symbols of things being talked of in the song and also mudras are signs made for the pleasure of the gods . This dance completes the worship of Jagannath in His temple and sends happy vibes that reverberate across the realm and ensure the welfare of the people there .

It is describing the elephant God Ganesh

Define beautiful please

Anyone can find the definition of beautiful simply by looking at their own reflection.

u have to smile while dancingthat's it.
