Keep The Channel Open Martha Graham

Keep The Channel Open Martha Graham

There is a vitality, a life force !

Dear Readers,

The activities like 

• finding the areas in which I am able to help others to  make them aware of their strength and weaknesses, 
• and develop their ability to achieve life of their own dream, 
• to be able to make right choices in life, 
• to understand their inner strength and 
• to develop  and apply the same on the path of achieving their goals, 
• to pay attention to the inner voice,

all these things are proving  fruitful and it gives me tremendous satisfaction. 

This is what our sarasar vivek i.e. power of discretion is all about !  

What else I want ?

One of such feedback introduced me to Martha Graham, a Choreographer who invented her own style of performing art of dance.  And significant thing is Martha Graham has had a great influence on dance still today.

Martha Graham

"There is a vitality, a life force, an energy, a quickening that is translated though you into action ...," her famous quote.

In this famous quote she sums up her philosophy of creation : 

• that each one of us has a power
• a vitality inside
• a force that is beyond us

which makes us unique and distinct.  

This power gives us -

• ability to express ourselves in our own special way
• we may not identify it, but we have this thing in us
• it is for us to use it or not. 

Her message is crystal clear to -

• encourage us have better trust
• self-confidence
• self-forgiveness 

with the idea that -

• nothing that comes from us in vain 
• because it is and will always be unique and genuine 
• therefore we should stay open

to welcome who we are and what we do ("Keep The Channel Open")

As I read it again and again, I felt immensely that this approach is most relevant not only to the artists, but even more so also to every individual, especially the one who is in doubt or in search of oneself or who is facing dissatisfaction.

I was suggested to see the first video made around this Martha Graham quote by Screenwriter and Musician  Hadryen Berstel and Sebastien Matuska, directed by Tunes & Tales. This video is available on You Tube.

The video "Keep the channel open" will help others blossom and realize themselves through this poetic and inspiring video.

Next time .......
