Today is a day to express our gratitude to our ancestors, who have contributed to our lives in so many ways.

In their very structure and ethos, Indian classical music and dance are designed to create a spiritual possibility.

In this culture we say, that Shiva without Shakti is like a shava, a corpse. Without Shakti or energy, there would be no existence.

Indian classical music has never been just for entertainment. It is a way of evolving an individual human being into a universal entity.

Sankranti or Pongal is in celebration of all that makes our life – the land, animals, air, water, and people. Rejoice!
