‘The Power of Seeing’

The Abhyas Trust here presented a unique yoga dance performance at the Stein Auditorium, India Habitat Centre here last week and a presentation of its urban design initiative for the benefit of the select audience.

Founded in 2004, the Abhyas Trust is a non-profit organization that concerns itself with the teaching and practice of yoga, Vedic chanting and the study of yoga sutras and creative adaptations of traditional dance forms into contemporary dance theatre with a focus on issues pertaining to urban design. It was precisely for this very reason that the presentation was called “The Power of Seeing” and was inspired by the philosophy of yoga which also suggests a proactive and responsible interaction with society and the environment.
