Session 1
3.00 pm to 4.30 pm: “Weaving and Being Woven”: An Embodied Exploration: A Workshop by Anitha Santhanam
Goddess veneration is inextricably linked with the Indian wisdom of Tantra. The Tantric worldview sees all material reality as created and animated by Shakti. The Tantra Chronicles (2013), received and compiled by Ruth Frankenberg and Lata Mani, comprise a unique text of contemporary wisdom. These 43 original teachings remind us that the universe is alive, embodiment is sacred and the senses are a form of knowledge. Inspired by this text, actor and dancer Anitha Santhanam will lead participants through a series of body-centred explorations, rooted in an understanding of the body as a site of living wisdom. Therapeutic, exploratory and revelatory, this is a unique workshop.
