Article - A tribute unto the Guru - Lata Surendra



Sometimes in black and white, feelings flow as thoughts, seeking to be shared as the timeless wisdom through words. The past week has seen us miss the tangible presence of several legends who live on through their bequeathed legacy. Some whose contributions gathered merit and others who merited but did not receive the acknowledgement they deserved. But both categories have categorically transformed their programmed spaces in their own way and their worthiness would perhaps glaze the cheeks of their disciples or create a sense of guilt in those who could have but overlooked merits as an illusion even as the world around passively watched and wondered at the duality in an arty world where the loftiness of art and the manipulations of the mind walked or danced together. Thus, it is, that I thought of sharing a tribute to all those Gurus who have been instrumental in widening the connotations of the dance and its didactic potency and irrespective of poetic justice kept on reaching out to etch their love for the art as their very life breath!

  4. Wonderful honour to all gurus. Yes creativity helps to beat death, be alive in the truth of art work . And while going through the process of the creativity if one has touched hearts and set precedence which motivate more lives, then that soul becomes eternal, A life of joy to behold. Guru is the atma in its energised form reaching out to lives connecting through the bridge of encompassing bliss. Naturally they are still alive, as a whole, residing in hearts of those who were connected with them.
    Om shri gurubhyo namah.
