“Through precise Mudras (hand gestures), steps and postures, a Charya dancer animates this inner Mandala. Each finger corresponds to a cosmic element activating these energies internally.”Prajwal Ratna Vajracharya
Tantric Buddhist priest from the Kathmandu valley and a ritual master of charya nritya, the sacred dance of Newar Vajrayana, in which body, speech and mind are the means by which a practitioner embodies an enlightened deity. Newar Buddhism is a tradition of its own, kin to Tibetan Buddhism as Vajrayana but not the same thing.
