Excellent performance Rukmini vijaykumar & great thoughts. Would love to see you r more performances and guidance on dance performance. Thank you Rukmini. U r just awesome classical dancer. 👌👌👍👍❤
Beautiful performance Rukmini! and totally agree with the point that somewhere during the dance one looses self/ego and becomes one with the divine experience of dancing .. yatho Mano tatho Rasah!
It's rare to see a person putting pure focus into dance and leaving everything behind... It's rare feet you have achieved, keep growing and stay blessed
The artist must lose himself / herself in the art, to bring out the best in him / her. As long as the artist is self conscious, there will be a distinction between the artist and the role he / she plays. There will be a line of demarcation between the artist and his / her art. Once the artist is completely free from self consciousness, he/ she can portray any role convincingly. Also changing roles in real life is not so difficult as we may think. Everyone of us seems to be playing dasAvathAram in our real life... as a parent, as a child, as a spouse, as a friend, as an employer, as an employee, as a neighbor, as a sibling, as a grand parent and as a grand child. When one loses SELF, one gain ONENESS, just like the doll made of salt attains oneness with the water it gets thrown in. "Aham brahmAsmi! Thath thvam asi!" :)

@@visalakshik.raman.6278 ....TRUE... The enlightened are the dolls made of Himalayan Ice that becomes pure drinking water.The enlightened are in oneness before dissolving and after dissolving. No difference. The non enlightened are the dolls made of salt that dissolving into pure drinking water and corrupt it. The non enlightened are solid salt before dissolving and liquid salt after dissolving. No difference. As the Supreme exists in each and every element as _Antaryami_ it eagerly expects the hour of enlightenment and ends in longing for liberation from the non enlightened. ( folded hands symbol ).

A very good presentation - well thought out - meaningful insight and I can see how Rukmini relates Advaita to her Dance. Thanks for sharing your experience Rukmini Vijayakumar.
May advaita spread its wings all over the world to produce such beautiful end products - happy, focused, energetic, and, most importantly, loving and compassionate enough to share the fruit with others.
As Adi Sankara would say "Advaita or the oneness with the Supreme Divine is the only reality". The separation is a lie. And dukham or sorrow emerges when we are ignorant of this.
Strictly speaking Performance has nothing to do with Advaitha, because performance is meaningful only when there is duality and ensuing multiplicity. Performance can take one to the Vedantic shore of Advaitha; to drink the nectar of Advaitha and transcend the duality is left for the individual...and Rukmini through her celestial performances take all the spectators to the wide shore of Vedantic Wisdom; my humble Pranam to her...
Advaita could be a progression on the understanding of existence, though many vedic scholars think that predated texts such as vedas are better. In my opinion.. NO. But i consider that the Shankara was a flawed and racists personality because of a simple fact that he believed in caste (varna) system. No human is perfect and that includes him.
...but his words ...categorise and respect the people based on their realisation. " Without fear, without death, *_without discrimination,_* *_without caste I am ;_* Neither father, nor mother, never born I am; Neither kith, nor kin, neither teacher, nor student am I; Without form, without figure, without resemblance am I...." " Without hate, without infatuation, without craving, without greed; Neither arrogance, nor conceit, never jealous I am; Neither dharma, nor artha, neither kama, nor moksha am I; Without sins, without merits, without elation, without sorrow; *_Neither mantra, nor rituals, neither pilgrimage, nor Vedas;_* Neither the experiencer, nor experienced, nor the experience am I," _Adi Sankara , Nirvana shatakam_

OMG
How blessed you are as individual to experience advaita spirituality with your art.
I wish we all get such blessings to realise advita
Beautiful performance Rukmini! and totally agree with the point that somewhere during the dance one looses self/ego and becomes one with the divine experience of dancing .. yatho Mano tatho Rasah!
Somewhere during the dance ?
It will be better to remain there forever.
Like _NATA RAJA_
Real and DEDICATED artist. ❤
It's rare to see a person putting pure focus into dance and leaving everything behind... It's rare feet you have achieved, keep growing and stay blessed
I like for watch Rukmini Dancing; a dramatic ekspression of human-body. Namaste. From North-Sumatra - Indonesia.
I love the 5:15 story symbolizing the oneness of Shiva-Parvathi - Advaita; The Dance is fine too

Beautiful, divine , deeply spiritual, and pure bliss. Thank you for the experience.
Rukmini is a Goddess who is explaining herself :) my pranams to you 🙏❤️

Beautiful explanations and blissful dance...you're so perfect and flawless while dancing💕💕. Wish I was in India, wouldn't mind learning😎
Now I see why you are the face of Yoga-Niyoga theme. You are the perfect ambassador for Yoga.
So precise and graceful
Wow what a blessing to watch you perform and then explain so vividly and simply
May advaita spread its wings all over the world to produce such beautiful end products - happy, focused, energetic, and, most importantly, loving and compassionate enough to share the fruit with others.
Already under the global warm wings.

ALL the spectators?
...it depends...
..if it happens through _RASA_
ALL.will be enlightened.
Simple and captivating.
Lalgudi.K.Sankaran.
..what about others ?
Ashadaron..the last part 🙏
37:28 🙏
There is more of a "lecture" with the "dance" part reduced to the minimum!!
It depends on the request made by those who arranged the stage.
We want to watch more your excellent dance, not hear your lecture so much!! Sadly, that is missing in this clip!!
Is it a lecture ?
It is also a sharing as the dance.
Why we use letters in comments ?
Where symbols are enough❤️
