Dasamahavidya

A selected piece from the researched choreographic work, Dasamahavidya in Sanskrit which depicts the ten forms of the 'Parashakti' according to the tantra. Considering the fact that the number "ten" is an important number of human life, the history states that the mathematical scenerio of the world was given a fuIIstop before the invention of the digit "zero" by Aryabhatta. On the other hand, The Dasadishi, The Dasakarma, The Dasamandala, The Dasavataram are all related closely to the human life and coincidentally we stay in the mother's womb for ten months and ten days.

"Dasamahavidya" is not only the description of the dhyana mantras of the ten Devis such as - Kamala, Kali, Tara, Vagala, Bhairabi, Bhubaneswari, Dhumabati, Matangi, Chinnamasta and Shorashi, but it is the reflection of the ultimate human life, human emotions (the nine rasas) and the stage through which man goes slowly and gradually towards the ultimate completeness.
