Lecture by Dr. Vasant Merchant, a professor of religion and the humanities, who discusses Tibetan symbols and metaphors in relation to religion and psychology. Topics include chants and mantras and their use in meditation; different mandalas and their significance; chakras, or psychophysical centers of the body; the symbolic meanings of various animals and objects, among them the dragon, horse, fish, bell, and lotus; and the paradoxical duality and unity of the universe. |||| Cassette 2 (ca. 53 min.). Lecture by anthropologist Marcia Calkowski, who discusses the space-time continuum in Tibetan art, including the significance of the axis mundi or cosmic tree, the multiple layers of the samsaric realms, the five colors and their correlation to the five cosmic elements of Ayurvedic thought, the importance of journeys in Tibetan opera, the significance of the khan-dro-ma or \"celestial fairies,\" and the mandala as an organizing principle in Tibetan opera. The discussion frequently refers to the symbolism of props and scenic elements in the opera Sukyi Nima, presented during Tibet Week (for performance footage, see *MGZIC 9-5041 Sukyi Nima). |||| Lecture by Tashi Dhondup, artistic director of the Chaksam-pa Tibetan Dance and Opera Company. In this discussion of objects and movements frequently used in Tibetan opera, topics include the symbolism of the arrow, color symbolism of various masks, and some typical gestures. Tashi Dhondup also describes the casual, enjoyment-oriented attitude of spectators at operas in Tibet, which usually last for several days."]}},{"label":{"en":["Genres"]},"value":{"en":["Lectures","Educational Films","Filmed Dance"]}},{"label":{"en":["Resource Type"]},"value":{"en":["Moving Image"]}},{"label":{"en":["Abstract"]},"value":{"en":["Three lectures on various aspects of Tibetan symbolism."]}},{"label":{"en":["Languages"]},"value":{"en":["English"]}},{"label":{"en":["Rights"]},"value":{"en":["The copyright and related rights status of this item has been reviewed by The New York Public Library, but we were unable to make a conclusive determination as to the copyright status of the item.
