DHARMA ALARIPU

The word Alarippu comes from the Telugu word “Alarimpu” which means to blossom. In this dance number every part of the body and the mind of the dancer blossoms and becomes ready to be offered to the Supreme. Such blossoming is auspiciousness. 

Today Shraddha and Thanushree will perform the Trisha Triputa Alaripu. Where the duality is overlapped by the one consciousness. One dance item two dancers. Two dancers bringing the oneness in a very simple manner. 

We can also see the interpretation of Dharma by Sri Vincent Paul in this Alaripu. Where the hand is held high in anjali hastha shows the values of Dharma, and there is a break and divide, which can be seen as identifying the good and bad. Followed by, there is a pull which signify the pulling or the taking in only the good or following the good path, similarly there is also a push which can be interpreted as ignoring or pushing away that which is bad or not holding on to the bad path. Thus, this alaripu will be presented in the raga Dharmavati.
