aseema: again the Devadasi
http://devika-aseema.blogspot.com/2011/02/again-devadasi.html
Tuesday, February 1, 2011. Saskia writes that modern India did not allow Devadasis to continue their ritual duties. She is confusing between the culture of the Devadasi and the human rights issue that Dr,Muthulakshmi Reddy fought for. If archakas in a temple could lead normal family life and be employed in the temple why could the Devadasis not marry and become the other woman in another woman's life?

Monday, December 27, 2010. More on Devadasi vs Rukmini Devi. Gave two statements in her talk of deseating. From his wrongly exalted. Pedestal. She recalled a private joke of T. Shankaran. Danced there is Bhakthi. Danced there is Agarbatti. She also questioned the identity of the urban Indian Bharathanatyam. Dancer who has been wrongly told the varnam. Is talking about spirituality. "The identity should be Meenakshi. She is addressing Siva, seaking. Conjugal bliss". Ok. Get ears by their sheer orality.

Tuesday, March 30, 2010. The first phase of my 65 days tour of US is just finished. I feel I have been away from home for months but it has been only 27 days. Mexico was great! Antonio Prieto really worked hard to make everything happen. What a fantastic coincidence that he, introduced to me by Sangeeta, happens to be in the same university as my nephew Dinesh Rao and his wife Diana Perez! I went to the bookstore and gave a demo of the spinning wheel that I have brought from India. And then my talk on Ga...

Friday, January 7, 2011. Why did she not give her daughter the initial T? Wednesday, January 5, 2011. Guru Kittappa Pillai teaches a Bharathanatyam adavu korvai in the frontal position. Sishya Harikrishnan decides to turn it sideways and back. Wow! Material for a future researcher of Bharathanatyam to look for a conspiracy theory. Doing away with Kittappa Pillai's dance? Balasaraswathi was never a devadasi. her great grand mother had made the wise decision to move to Madras and so her family was not ...
