I Am Durga, Durga I Am: Mayurbhanj Chhau Dance

Inspired by Devi Mahatmam, but resonates with every Woman, Man and Sadhak. Just how Durga and her avatars fought the ad- versaries. We all face the same invisible forc- es in our life, which pulls us down, where we encounter the doubt, the exhaustion, the forgetting, and the stubborn return. This story is narrated through Mayurbhanj Chhau, tradition born from warriors who danced with their bodies as instruments, who knew that the fiercest battles are fought inward, in the battlefield of ordinary life. They believed when the body is trained to its edge, it becomes a site of revelation, a recognition that you were never separate from what you were seeking. Until the moment arrives, not as revelation but as recognition. Durga. I am.
