Unknown Feelings

“Who has not found the Heaven below / Will fail of it above ...

His eagerness, his voracity, a blood memory, in the sense that he can extract more from his life than what he has really lived.

He must have a will to explore unknown feelings and dare to feel them.

This may seem terrifying, but it has to be done because there is no other option.”

(Martha Graham - American Dancer, Teacher and Choreographer of modern dance, 1894-1991)

 

One more picture of that old man who came to take a bath near Nepali ghat along the Ganges in Varanasi (Benaras).

He was adding several layers of fabrics over his garments in a kind of choreography.

The way he was composing and arranging the movements reminded me something of Martha Graham.
