Museum by Light

Lalbhai Dalpatbhai Museum in collaboration with Rasadhwani presents

Aatithya of Nataraja

Of the many traditions in Indian culture that venerate the Gods, temple processions are prominent. The Chidambaram temple of Tamil Nadu exemplifies this ritual perfectly, wherein Nataraja is carried in a palanquin when he descends from heaven on pre-ordained days. Thousands of devotees serve God as they would a guest (atithi), chanting vedic mantras and performing temple rituals. The God who is formless (nirguna nirakara) is worshipped through form.

Dance, it is said is the greatest of offerings.

Let us partake in this divine journey which turns the museum into a temple, by witnessing the beginning of the performance with the rendition of a Mallari (procession) by the Rasadhwani dancers. Join us to experience the bhakti bhava of the devotees.
