जब नृत्य बन जाता है साधना: भील समुदाय की आदिवासी होली

By Divendra Singh

होली से पहले उपवास, पहाड़ से लाए गए पत्थरों के रंग और ढोलक-नगाड़ों की थाप, महाराष्ट्र के भील आदिवासियों का होली नृत्य सिर्फ़ उत्सव नहीं, एक जीवित परंपरा है। नंदूरबार के कलाकार गौतम खर्डे और उनकी मंडली इस लोककला को गाँव से राष्ट्रीय मंच तक पहुँचा रहे हैं।

संवाद 2025: जब समुदाय, संस्कृति और धरती की धड़कनें एक सुर में मिलीं

संवाद केवल एक कार्यक्रम नहीं, बल्कि एक एहसास है, जहाँ कोई मंच पर बोलता है, तो वह सिर्फ अपने समुदाय की बात नहीं करता, वह अपने पुरखों की धड़कनें, जंगलों की खुशबू और अपनी मिट्टी की स्मृतियाँ साथ लेकर आता है।

Tribal men in East Singhbhum district make an annual pilgrimage into the Dalma forests to gather forest produce. Their women practise temporary 'widowhood' and pray to Singhbhonga, their deity.
