Taalconnect in association with Sanskriti Sagar brings MAD and DIVINE to kolkata on 28th July at 6:30 pm at GD Birla Sabhagar
Mad and Divine:
The voice of Janabai and Lalded.
An insight into the life and teachings of the 13th Century Janabai and the 14th Century Lalded. Both were female mystic poets who went through tremendous hardships before they were finally recognized for their spiritual awakenings. They crossed all barriers of social norms to fearlessly express their love for the supreme. Many real life incidents have had a profound effect on their lives.
Janabai was a Vaishnavait while Lalded was a Shaivaite. Janabai believed in the form while Lalded believed in the formless. Janabai took the path of devotion while Lalded took the path of tantra. They both appear to be different, but there is no denying that they were both Mad and Divine.
Mad and Divine was first commissioned by Dr Anita Ratnam for the Natya Darshan at
Kartik Fine Arts Chennai, in 2011
Rama also wants to acknowledge the valuable inputs in the story telling technique that she received from Rajika Puri.
