The Epic Journey
October 20, 2012Thanks to Evan Hastings who brought up this course as our project, now I've actually been kind of successful in exploring myself from within. Not only in relation to a character from the Ramayana but even as an individual I've managed to go deep, and excavate all the inner talents there are within me. A good performer and artist, learnt to be more devoted to whatever i do and peace.
Theater was something which I had never performed in life and i was quite hesitant, but now i am getting that confidence to go in front of an audience and perform the way i do in real life and even the support from Evan and my buddies from the project has created a great impact and difference to me.The morning exercise, the meditation has made me fitter and more energetic. I've learnt to be a calmer, a better individual, have broadened my mind and a better friend. Initially i did not know anything about the Ramayana, but now I'm quite aware of the epic and its different versions.
The Ramayana Remix does matter alot because its made me and my friends develop a lot as an individual. Not only with the Ramayana but apart from the epic there are topics which we get to talk about and even be aware of disastrous things happening in the society for eg violation against women. Us being students of the Ramayana Remix along with Evan are trying to bring a solution to the society through our plays and theatrical performances so that people are aware of the things happening around them.
Looking forward to learn and enjoy as well as open up myself all the more.
Peace
Shams.

I not only believe that through our actvism we can make a change in society but also something inside of us finds peace.
ReplyDeletei totally agree
ReplyDeleteI would think that we are definitely planting a seed of thought,creating awareness which might also possibly lead to action/change of some sort but I dont think ramayana remix is offering a solution to anyone. You take away whatever you want to and whatever you are ready for.
