garba

"You know why I like garba so much? That's because it makes me feel that there is nothing more important in this world except getting engrosed in the moment. The feeling of getting lost in the crowd and just tapping your feet to the awesome beats of the youthful songs... It is very different from any other dance in a lot of ways. Individuality is not maintained and that is what I like the most. When you dance garba you dance like any other dancer not worrying about how you dance or that someone might be watching. Only then does the actual meaning of dance comes to the forefront. It is meant to shatter all your worries and let you meditate in the moment. In garba, you keep doing the same step with everybody for hours and still it feels fresh. The act of synchronising your actions with everyone makes it happen. That precisely is what makes it my favourite form of dance."
