ODISSI GURUKUL
Of all the diverse edifices
that highlight Nrityagram's campus, it is the Odissi
Gurukul that most mystifies the viewer.
Natural raw faces of stone fill its walls, suspended
with strength that counters the giving gestures
of the dance it houses. Here the spirit of Orissan
temples re-conjures the magic of thousands of years,
here the lull of Nrityagram and even the sprinkles
of Nature's sound dissipate.
