Whirling Mandala™ Sacred Dance | Zia Nath | TEDxExeter

- Опубликовано: 12 май 2016
- Zia has been in the study of ancient sacred dances since 1994. Her journey started with Gurdjieff movements, Sufi dances and whirling. In 2006 she embraced the study of Odissi Indian Classical Dances (temple dances of ancient India) and in 2008 originated her show Realms of Dance™ (formerly known as Sufi Splendour).
Realms of Dance™ is a spectacular presentation of Sacred Dance & Whirling Mandala™, rendered to music and poetry of renowned artists and mystics.
Inspired from ancient sculpted stories of the Temples of Orissa, and the wild abandon of spinning gypsies of India and Asia. These dances are tales of love suspended in the realms of sensuality and spirituality.
Zia has been teaching and performing these sacred dances at prestigious festivals and events across the country and internationally, sharing the mystique of our sacred heritage.
Zia is of Indian origin and lives and works in Mumbai. She is also a Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapist by profession since 2001.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx
Seriously, I've watched her performance live and met her in real, she's so sweet and kind in real. And her dance moves are brilliant, she's so energetic.💖
Am i the only one who got so emotional to watch? this i got tears i guess my heart is yearning to something so authentic and pure and beautiful.
Little light, GOD BLESS YOU!!!! I hope and pray, friend, that God reveals Himself to you! I've seen The Holy Light! I've been there. I've done this very dance (twirling) with The God Most High! I have had an out of body experience and I promise you, that beauty, love and divinity you crave? It's there! And it's ready to console you. You simply have to ask for it! Look for it in all places.
No. I feel the same way.
@@wakeupnow2996 beautiful words. ❤
Nope. I have seen the same video like 10 times and I always cry
Yes! This is very emotional dance!
The epitome of feminine power and sacredness, thank you =)
Seems like she really devoted her life to dance!!!!I'm amazed
Wow, 6:20 begins her joy and 7:15 it's mystically exstatic ❤
I literally, watched her spin around for like 7 minutes and it was mesmerizing. If someone painted mountains and trees (and other forms of landscapes) on her dress she would be considered artwork.
Why are you denying her to be a work of art? That is your limitation.
Your limitation is not knowing how to read. Your assume I was deny her form of art.
@@Autumn4Daze I felt strength in your heart but weakness in your words. Your attempt at hyperbole was lowperbole for me. Sorry I’m in such a hardass mood tonight. 😊
@@OnerousEthic You only read what you wanted to see. A person mood reflects their personality and you already explain yourself. Your comment only made me laugh, so it okay. May you become a better person tomorrow. 😊
Thats a great idea to paint onto the skirt
Dance is a form of prayer.
truth
My Beloved! ❤ this is for You. I don't know how else to express my love for You :’) You are my Lord, my beautiful Creator
I am losing myself, and don't want to be found. How can she do this. 😍🙏
Everything turns & sways, its how the universe worships in obedience. Man must learn that language.
I don't think people realize how physically strong and healthy you have to be to this for such an extended length if time. That being said, if you are unwell, please START doing this because the healing benefits are worth the effort. For those of you mocking this, with love and peace I ask you to stand now and attempt to do this but wear a helmet and have a bucket ready. 😊
No es fuerza, es maña.
bellyqueennorth I am trying to do it. I got really sick but I felt my energy running through me. I wish I can learn
It’s not about being healthy. It’s an old meditation the ides behind it is that when you whirl your mind whirl with you so that when you suddenly stop only the body stops but the mind inside goes on moving . Of course it’s pointless if you’re not watching closely within you .
i almost fell down the stairs, ouch!
Amen Bc am a Kathak dancer in training and I practice most of week and it's still hard but I never give up I have a passion for Dance.. So I know the practice that went in2 this. MUST GET IT DOWN 2 A T.
Some could make the mistake that she is only spinning...this is far from the case. If that's all you see, you would be profoundly mistaken. There is something within us that lies beyond this terrestrial world. Follow THAT thing, which can only be pursued with heart and the Truth will be clear.
Barry Sterling
Hmm. Maybe you should try this.
its true
Barry, I've danced with The Spirit that is pure love and light. And we joined hands and did this dance. It was the most profound experience of my life, and my entire existence has never been the same! God bless you. You know Truth, friend. Peace and love.
True. Would love to see more and better dancing from her if it can be outdone. I sincerely doubt it!!
That’s the name of the dance, bruh
Reaching up and out to God. Beautiful! In beauty. ☀️💛
The divine realm is way beyond mental description..One can only stand in awe and be carried away in to divine ecstasy.

This is Persian dance. I hope you can mention it in the title when you are trying to represent our culture🇮🇷❤️☺️
Exactly I don’t understand why they don’t mention it
this music and dance is so peaceful
It's so Hypnotic....
Dance and the song both....
How beautiful the human looks when in the conscious presence of Allah.
this has nothing to do with Allah
@@user-fq7wr2vt5c that's what am saying where did allah came in2 this?
@@user-fq7wr2vt5c this is a Sufi dance, a sect of islam. You should read the description and learn more about it.
@@user-fq7wr2vt5c you know that darvish, dervish, or darwish all mean members of the sufi fraternity right? If it really was originated before islam then link me a source. Because I searched and haven't found anything yet.
Dancing to get closer to Allah??? Really????
Love, peace, harmony❤
So wonderful. Thank you
The sacred dance of America is the YMCA.
Such a beautiful way of expressing Divine Love!! 💗
Hahahaha! you whirling too, Sanjana? :D What a pleasant surprise to find you here! :D

IT IS STILL A LOVELY POST.
One time on Dmt I stood up and started spinning in these wheels that I could feel but couldn’t see and it was somewhat fun so I asked the presence what was happening and it told me it was the wheels of sustainability and that without them nothing would exist or appear physically or in this dimension… I know that this is tied to that message for I also met a huge mandala that told me it was god and that everyone unborn living and passed thing makes it up in totality and aliveness
OMG. What a spin😱😱
So sensual. So seductive. Spectacular. Glorious, the dance of the angels.
