Making Bhairab
According to the Gopal Vamshawali text, Gathamangal represents Bhairab, Lord Shiva’s furious avatar. It is also used to signify the three Gunas, namely Satwa, Raja, and Tama (quality, attribute, or property). The gunas are a central idea in practically all Hindu philosophical traditions. According to this worldview, there are three gunas that have always been and will continue to be present in all objects and beings in the world. Satwa (goodness, constructive, harmonious), raja (passion, active, confused), and tama (passion, active, confused) are the three Gunas (darkness, destructive, chaotic).

If we look at popular culture, especially outside the subcontinent, the kantha appears as a simple utility quilt sewn with the running stitch. Nothing could further from the truth. @gangapat ALSO SEE QUILTING GENRES OF INDIA: then and now

Braj Revisited
zhlédnutí 270Před 4 lety
Braj Revisited Although born in Mathura, Krishna spent his childhood years among the gopa and gopi cow-herders of Vrindavan absorbed in lila or divine play. These towns are central to Braj, also called Braj Bhoomi, and defy political boundaries in the same way Krishna’s lilas defy Maya or illusion. I have often said that Maya’s veil is so thin that in Braj, you can shred it with your breath; ho...

very informative, thank you so much, I learned so much!
So informative , thank you so much ❤
Beautiful presentation. Lovly music- raag hamsadhwani - which translates to hamsa= swan, dhwani= sound/ tune. I wish this is presented as documentary. Today, people buy new cloth ( and fabric stores accross the world sell fresh matched pieces) to make patchwork quilts! Isn't this an irony!!
Ah...didn't want it to stop transposing! Really captured their inspiration...thanks
Thanks so much for documenting and sharing your extensive knowledge with us. Fantastic presentation!
Encyclopedic! Well done!

Music is too much
Beautifull work. I just wish that they were paid a fair price (compared to western labour) an Indian worker earns less a month than an average seemstress in Denmark earns a day! Who are getting the biggest cut of the surplus? Not the hardworking Indian worker.
Thanks for your comment, Kristen. My continuing research shows that many quilters in India are getting paid fair wages. Thanks to the many NGOs who have help cut out the exploitative middleman. In many cases the quilters are meeting directly with the customers without bargaining.
Patrick Finn I'm glad to hear that at least some are paid fair prices. 😊
Lovely....thank you for sharing!
What a fabulous presentation! I loved the music and the narration; they jointly enhance the lovely quilts. From the quilts to the video production, it's a labor of love. Beautiful!
+Amirah Hall Thank you! That means a lot. _PJF
