Run up to the production of Melbourne Talam

I look back to see how the production came about. We were due to stage the show in March 2020, when the pandemic struck. Somewhere, I kept the dream alive. The flicker of hope. I blogged the process. And now I shall read the blog posts.

A Writing Sister and A Prompt

Talking to writing sister is cathartic. Phebe Karen Beiser lives in Cincinnati. She is a poet and a teacher. We wrote, The Buddha & The B** * available on Amazon. Published by Hay House, 2018. A travelogue and a story of our friendship. We recently connected on a vid call. It triggered memories and a blog post.

Blog Post - My experiments with Indian Poetics

This episode is my blog post from rashmasblogtounblock.blogspot.com/
I am a student of Sanskrit Poetics or theory of Aesthetics given by Sage Bharata Muni 5000 years ago. Sanskrit Poetics is a gift of Hindu Vedic civilization. I have written a play using the principles of dramaturgy in Natyashastra, the shastra of Drama. In this episode, I discuss the difference between Aristotle's principles and Natyashastra. This is my understanding as a practitioner. Academics may differ.
