Paramparaa's Bharatanatyam performances illuminate ancient temple

Paramparaa, a group of dancers from Cleveland, Ohio, performed two Bharatanatyam dances, Vivartha and Paramam, at the Venugopala Swamy temple.

The performances took place as the sun set, making the temple and surrounding hills look beautiful.

Vivartha talked about important issues like climate change and how people are harming nature.

It showed farming, plants, and how humans are affecting the environment.

Paramam was about stories from ancient myths, celebrating gods and goddesses like Meenakshi and Varāha.

The dances were very moving and made the audience think about protecting the planet and the beauty of tradition.

The performances combined art, nature, and spirituality in a special way.
