Interactive Performance “The Great Shift”
Thanh Huyen 14:38, 2017/03/09
Interactive performance inspired by Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh’s “No Mud, No Lotus” lecture.
“The Great Shift” performance is inspired by Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh’s “No Mud, No Lotus” lecture, which is an examination of the world we live in today; a portal to liberation and awareness.
People are defying their own archetypes and becoming those that wonder about the world around them. They start to ponder the greater mysteries of life, of the self and the universe as a whole. The distractions by the whims of our programmed lives are beginning to be disturbed, and we are awaken to something. We seek wisdom mired in the stillness of meditation, reaching out for an answer, ever elusive, ever alluring and undeniably priceless. We believe to have found it. We are finally learning the hidden secret of nature, with the practice of meditation and the restoration of the pituitary in our brains. We are waking up from a deep sleep to open our hearts where love can flower with ease. This is our great shift.
A short Q&A with the performers and sound artist will take place after the performance. So if you have any burning inquiries, please stay for a short while after the show.
Interactive Performance “The Great Shift” will run on Fri 10 Mar 2017, 7.30 – 9.30 pm at Salon Saigon, 6d Ngo Thoi Nhiem, Ward 7, Dist 3, HCMC.
