Inspiration
Indian classical dance is the most natural and complete technology for enlivening the relationship between transcendental self-referral Being and its expression in the world of physiology.
– Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
Dance is the natural and therefore universal expression of the human species through which it finds unity with the cosmos and its creator. The cosmos is the dynamic expression in orderly and beautiful movement of the static source, the one supreme spirit.
– T. Balasaraswati
