Doc / Timepass (Paperback) / Download 92CMMKHOEE // Timepass (Paperback) < Doc Timepass (Paperback) By Pooja Bedi Prhi, United States, 2000. Paperback. Condition: New. Language: English . Brand New Book ***** Print on Demand *****.In 1974, pictures appeared in magazines and newspapers of Protima Bedi streaking down a road in the centre of Bombay in broad daylight. There was immediate uproar. The incident was, in many ways, the culmination of a life of youthful rebellion and brash sexuality that Protima, the scandalous model and wife of the rising star of Bollywood, Kabir Bedi, had lived ever since she ran away from home to live in sin . Barely four years later, the glamorous flower child had reinvented herself as an accomplished classical dancer, a devotee of Goddess Kali, and chosen the sari over slit skirts and halter-necks. Shortly before her death, she had shaved her head and decided on a monk s life. She died in August 1998, in a landslide in the Himalayas while on a pilgrimage to Kailash Mansarovar, leaving behind her most lasting achievement-a flourishing dance village, Nrityagram, where students continue to learn the classical dance styles of India. Few lives have been more eventful and controversial than Protima Bedi s, and Timepass, derived from her unfinished autobiography, journals and her letters to family,...

    Ashish Mohan Khokar INDIAN DANCE TODAY. AN HISTORICAL OVER-VIEW [Ashish Mohan Khokar è probabilmente il più importante critico e studioso di danza in India. Ha studiato danza, ha lavorato in diverse accademie di danza, è critico del principale quotidiano indiano, «The Times of India», collabora con diversi altri quotidiani, è il direttore dell’unico Annale di danza in India, «Attendance». Ha scritto molti li- bri sulla danza. E` figlio di Mohan Khokar, senz’altro il più grande stu- dioso di danza indiano dell’ultima generazione. Sta creando il primo Archivio di Danza in India, partendo dall’immensa collezione del pa- dre. Per maggiori dettagli si possono vedere: www.attendance- india.com e www.dancearchivesofindia.com.] Indian classical dance traditions have been borne out of a sense of propitiation of the divinity. A certain spiritual content has always been its mainstay. It has also been essentially the art of a soloist, ex- cept in dance-theatre forms. Over two thousand unbroken years, it has grown to become the longest continuous dance culture, afford- ing an interesting insight into man and his relationship to stage in general and dance art, in particular. Its classical nature comes through by a set of code of grammar, content and concept. Thus, if in one form, the knees are to be bent while performing and a half-sitting position maintained all through, then it cannot be altered. The position of hands, the use of eyes, neck, torso and feet, all go towards making dance units, which be- come strings of movements, through which individual characteristics and a grammar is set which makes each form distinct and thus, with age and tradition, classical.

The US President in a telephonic conversation congratulated PM Modi on the outcome of recent state elections, the White House said. This was the third telephonic conversation between the two leaders after Trump’s electoral victory in November last year. “President Donald J Trump spoke with Prime Minister Narendra Modi of India to congratulate him on the outcome of India’s recent state-level elections,” the White House said in a readout of the call which took place on Monday.

  • The Mythic City
    Copyrighted Material 1 THE MYTHIC CITY It is just before two o’clock in the afternoon in April, the hottest month of the year. A tiny speck appears in a cloudless Poona sky, moving steadily toward the Tower of Silence, the funerary place where the Zoroastrians expose their dead to be consumed by birds of prey. It is not an eagle; nor is it a crow, for it could never fly that high. As the speck approaches the tower, its outline grows larger. It is a small aircraft, its silver body gleaming in the bright sun. After flying high above the Parsi place of the dead, the plane dis- appears into the horizon only to double back. This time, it heads determinedly to the tower, hovers low over it, and then suddenly swoops down recklessly. Just when it seems sure to plunge into the ground, the plane rights itself and flies upside down in large circles. A bright object drops from the aircraft into the well of the tower, illuminating the structure containing a heap of skeletons and dead bodies. As the light from the bright flare reveals this gruesome sight, the plane suddenly rights itself and hovers directly overhead. The clock strikes two. A camera shutter clicks. The click of the camera shakes the Zoroastrian world. The Parsi head priest of the Deccan region, taking an afternoon nap, imme- diately senses that foreign eyes have violated the sacred universe of his religion. Parsi priests, who are performing a ritual at their Fire Temple, feel their throats dry up abruptly and are unable to Prakash_Mumbai Fables_Book.indb 1 8/16/2010 8:23:10 AM Copyrighted Material continue their chants.

    Akademos 2014 An Annual Miscellany of Liberal Arts and Scholarship KAMALA NEHRU COLLEGE (University of Delhi) 1 2 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AKADEMOS enters its ninth successful year as an academic journal. As a community of teachers we thank each other for extending cooperation in every form. We are thankful to our principal, Dr.Minoti Chatterjee for her relentless encouragement in making it a journal of repute. Our sincere thanks go to all the contributors for their excellent articles which have lent quality to this journal. This endeavour owes much to Vice Principal Dr. Rita Malhotra, Namita Paul and Dr. Debasree Basu for investing considerable effort in proof reading and editing the articles and all the faculty members who have allowed us to publish their valuable research. Team AKADEMOS 3 4 Editor’s Note The first condition of progress is the removal of censorship. George Bernard Shaw Recently , the Supreme Court struck down Section 66A of the IT Act which allowed arrests for posting offensive content on social media sites. The controversial provision made posting offensive material on social networking sites an offence punishable by up to three years in jail. With this move the Supreme Court upheld the right of the citizens of our country to express themselves freely on the Internet. The question of free speech can be a thorny one. The line between an opinion and malicious vendetta is a thin one. Section 66 A was used to jail schoolchildren for posting on Facebook, but it is also true that the social media has been used to incite riots in the country.

  • In India, Eternal Rhythms Embody a National Spirit
    Dance In India, Eternal Rhythms Embody a National Spirit Briana Blasko for The New York Times Bijayini Satpathy, left, and Pavithra Reddy of the Nrityagram dance ensemble in Karnakata, India. By ALASTAIR MACAULAY Published: March 16, 2012 NRITYAGRAM, India FEB. 20 was President’s Day in the United States, but in India it is the day when the god Shiva is honored as Nataraja, Lord of the Cosmic Dance. Innumerable sculptures, going back over at least 11 centuries, depict him balanced on one bent leg. And the placing of each of his limbs signifies a different aspect of his mastery of the elements of existence. Movement has long pervaded Indian thought. Dance here is a vivid element in religion, mythology, philosophy and art. Although I have spent over 35 years following dance in the West, a four-week visit to India in February made me feel that only now have I witnessed dance where it is truly central to culture. Nowhere more so than in the disciplined utopia of Nrityagram, a village far from the madding crowd that is completely given over to the pursuit of dance. The village’s company, the Nrityagram Dance Ensemble, is a lustrous exemplar of Odissi, one of India’s classical dance forms. Ever since Nrityagram’s first New York season in 1996 at the Kaye Playhouse at Hunter College, no Indian dancers have been better known in America. I stayed in this village for four days, observing round-the-clock rehearsals and classes as the company prepared for its latest tour, which on Tuesday brings it to the Joyce Theater for six days.
