<p>India is the only place where our gods must dance. If they cannot dance, they cannot be gods! This is because the closest analogy you can give to the phenomenon of creation, is that it is like a dance.<br /><br /></p>.<p>Today, modern physicists are using such words – they say creation seems to be in a dance. If you observe a dance, on the surface, there seems to be no logical coherence to what is happening. But if you look closely enough, there is a profound system to the whole process.<br /><br />For example, in Indian classical dance, the dancer may seem to be moving their hands and legs about at random. On the surface, there seems to be nothing to it. But if you watch closely enough, there is a very deep coherence to everything that is happening. If that coherence was absent, you would not enjoy the dance.<br /><br />To be able to do seemingly illogical things like throwing your hands and legs around, but still have an absolute coherence to everything that you want to depict takes years of training and practice. If the dance has that geometric aesthetic, it will impact the viewers in a certain way, though they may not know the story or understand what the dance is. The same goes for music in a different dimension.<br /><br />Physicists are also coming to this. Creation seems to be absolutely random and accidental, but with closer observation, everything seems to be synchronized in some way. There is some kind of coherence to everything, which they are still not able to figure out. This is something we have always said in yoga. The microcosm and the macrocosm are essentially the same design.<br /><br />It is from this that the yogic practices began. We said anda, pinda, and brahmanda – the ingredient that makes this life, the individual person, and the cosmos – are three manifestations of the same thing. They are all in the same synchronicity.<br /><br />So, the nearest analogy and the closest description you can give for the way the cosmos is functioning is that it is a dance, because it all seems to be at random, but there is perfect organization and synchronicity behind it. So, because creation is a dance, we said the divine is a dancer – otherwise how could he make this dance happen?<br /><br />Courtesy : isha.sadhguru.org</p>
