@Kathaknun They don't listen at first, get angry, dismissive, but then go on the journey in search of the Simorgh, a mythical divine bird. When they finally find the Simorgh they can only see their own reflections. Lesson: Search for the guru within......
@yvittal Miss Moraga's work in Progress starts with Nritta, aspect of kathak, then transitions to abhinaya based on sufi poem Conference of the birds. She is portraying different characters/ birds 1. vainglorious peacock who is encouraged to choose the world over mere painted feathers, the partiridge who only loves the rose, but is reminded it will fade and wither, one bird who loves her rubies and jealously guards them and is told they are nothing but colored rocks and will harden the heart.
Totally amazing, the artist makes it look so effortless, which must be the mark of genius. Love the sax too. Really curious about the story at the end. Who is she? Why is she angry? How does it end?!
