Daastaan-E-Guru Nanak - Mystical Music & Storytelling
A musical daastaan, about the life, journeys & teachings of Baba Nanak, spiritual guide, traveller & philosopher. The performance looks at the idea of “Oneness” Baba Nanak proposes with his verses. Daastaango (storytellers) narrate & sing simultaneously to create an intimate milieu of divinity and soulful togetherness. First time in Adelaide.
Through Daastaan-E-Guru Nanak, the attempt is to articulate the basic teachings of the master :
Kirt Karna (honest & diligent living);
Vand Chhakna (sharing what you possess); &
Naam Japna (meditating upon the name of the Almighty),
Alongside, the attempt is also to respond to the international burning issues like terrorism, racism & communalism through the thought called Nanak.
An evening of mystical songs and storytelling.
