“As the soul and God merge, the boundaries of existence disappear and the universe becomes one.” This sentence sets the tone for Nimagna, whose dance works weave four different parts together to roam the spirit of creation. Orchestrated by Bharatanatyam Exponent Rama Vaidyanathan and performed by 25 talented dancers from Delhi, Ganesa Natyalaya, is a 75-minute work, an immersive experience that explores the traversal of spiritual emotions.

The dance work by Parampara is held at night along the Ramakrishna Beach in Visakhapatnam. “The inspiration is to create ensemble works at Bharatanatyam, which can have emotional and visual images,” said Rama Vaidyanathan, president of Ganesa Natyalaya. The order of the four parts begins with Guru Stotram, a tribute to the founder of the institution, Saroja Vaidyanathan, on the occasion of Ganesa Natyalaya’s 50th anniversary. The call sets the tone for the rest of the performance.

The second part is a tribute to Devi, a tribute to the female god, which praises the goddess’ virtues through Keerthanam, celebrates the female principles, and recognizes their abilities and elegance.

Leading the audience on a journey to the sacred city, the third part Kashgar explores the complexity of human emotions and the transformative power of spirituality. In this section, the choreography explores Kashgar’s sacred and transformative capabilities, and devotees seek a sense of forgiveness and peace.

The final paragraph by Raasa Leela’s exploration of the cosmic dance of Lord Krishna and Lord Gopikas and Gopikas is a sublime introduction to the universal human desire to unite with the supreme power. This work is a masterful description of the dance of the universe, the boundary between the individual and the god, and the dancer becomes one with the universe.
