The Dancer Becomes The Dance. Poem by Dr. Antony Theodore

The Dancer Becomes The Dance.

Rating: 4.8


Forget the dancer.
Kill ego.
Go to the core of ego.
Become humble.
Break the ego.
And then you can
become the dance.

The dancer becomes the dance.
Call it prayer, meditation or
contemplation, whatever.

The dancer becomes the dance.

We, the audience, should not forget the dancer, because the dancer works very hard to achieve excellence. However, I do agree that the dancer should be humble, put the ego down, and become the dance- - Concentrating on the dance itself, and not on winning accolades for herself or himself. A very good poem which makes a very good point!

How true! I noticed when practicing Yoga and Meditation and forgot about my ego I was able to make the Yoga moves in a more flowing way. By the way beautiful photography and on point too!
