"Mohe Rang De" An evening of Meera Bhajans & Qawalis of Ameer Khusro & Dance recital at Habitat World, IHC, Lodhi Road > 7pm on 27th October 2010
Time : 7:00 pm
Entry : Free
Event Details : 'Mohe Rang De' An evening of Meera Bhajans & Qawalis of Ameer Khusro.
Conception & Direction : Madhumita Ray
Vocal : Madhumita Ray & Sailusha Murty
Dance recital by Asavari Pawar & Shashi Banerjee
Mohey Rang De tells the story of the saint-musician Meerabai starting from her childhood as a young Rajput princess, her introduction to her Girdhar (Lord Krishna), her marriage into the royal family, to her abandonment of worldly ties, and ultimate surrender to Lord Krishna. But Meera’s story is also the journey of the mortal soul from awakening, to complete submersion; her love for Krishna was symbolic of the compulsive attraction that every soul feels for the ultimate divinity. Therefore Meera’s story, and her message, is also at the crux of the Sufi movement.
Using vocal performances by Ms Madhumita Ray (Meera Bhajans), Majid Qawwal of Rampur, and dance by Ms Shashi Banerjee and Ms Asavari Pavar, Mohey Rang De is thus also an exploratory journey threading together the Bhakti and Sufi movements using Meera Bhajans, Sufi couplets of Amir Khusrau and Kabeer. The aim of the presentation is to highlight that all religions have the same message; and all souls, lead to the same divinity.
