The term "Devadasi" refers to a female ritual specialist; good luck and well being are in her hands. Flickering lamps, cooling water, music and dance are her instruments. A formal ceremony solemnised her dedication to the God of the temple. In Tamil Nadu this millennia old tradition has seen great hey days.
This CD-ROM has been published in December 1997. This CD-ROM is part of IGNCA's endeavour to digitise the multidimensional performative rituals within the architectural space of Brhadisvara temple. The CD-ROM facilitates virtual experience of the spatial and temporal context of south Indian music and dance.
