Dancing the Qualities of the 21 Taras  A Video Of Detailed Instruction With Prema Dasara And Myri Dakini  This dance arose out of the practice of the Mandala Dance of the 21 Praises of Tara created by Prema Dasara. Based on a condensed sadhana of Chokjur Lingpa, the Mandala Dance requires several days of instruction and is oriented as a performance piece.  As Prema traveled to different communities teaching the Mandala dance she realized the need for a dance, that those new to the practice could experience in a two hour introduction. During one of her retreats, she gathered the material about the 21 Taras from a number of sources and she selected the quality for each Tara. She then shared them with her meditation teacher, His Eminence Bokar Rinpoche, who gave his approval. It has been inspiring and empowering dancers since 1989.  Prema Dasara created this version of the sadhana using as inspiration the text of Chokjur Lingpa’s Tara Terma as translated by Sarah Harding.  Prema assembled the music and the movements. Over the many years, together with the communities of dancers world wide, the dance has evolved.  Myri Dakini demonstrates the movements while Prema narrates the meditation and meaning.  The music was recorded by Anahata Iradah who played all the instruments and did all the singing vocals. The dance commands are intoned by Prema Dasara. You can purchase the music through the Tara Dhatu store https://taradhatu.org/shop/  The videography and editing were done by Barbara Patton.  This project was funded by donations from the many Tara Dancers world wide. With great gratitude to the sublime teachers who opened the practice of Tara, we ask that any mistakes be forgiven, all Praise is Tara’s.  May all who see this video be inspired to live the path of wisdom and compassion. Om Tare!!
