I love your gentle suppleness and noble moves that are different from other dancers. I admire the stable motion of the difficult stationary state. Thank you for making me happy. I wish you and your family health and happiness.

Thank you very much for sharing this beautiful practice, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Namaste.

[@서원파-v3w]

I admire the movements of your muscles and bones that are smooth and flexible. It's not a traditional costume, so I think I can see it better. Of course, your smile is the last brushstroke on a beautiful picture. Have a nice day~

I love your Odissi dance and exercise mix. The choice of music is awesome. The location and daylight is beautiful. You are beautiful and your moves are so graceful, so smooth like a flowing river.

Thank you so much for your kind comment! ☺🙏

[@jackhammer111]

spoil me. sex with you would connect me to the gods It's my only hope to understand what's happening around me. It's not an immature desire. Seems each new trip around the wheel makes me more impatient and less empathetic. Each trip I find souls who are more disturbing than before with my desire to judge easier all the time. My fear is the gods will give up on me. Trips around the wheel with the same ending is hell. is it not"

[@jasonhoeft5225]

Thank you for the videos, your dancing means a lot to me and has given me some ideas for my own dancing.

Hi Jason, thank you so much 🙏 that’s amazing to hear - I hope your dancing brings you ever more joy and peace! 🌺

Dear Maryam, I am just awestruck, deeply in love with your dancing. I am Brazilian and went to see Madhavi Mudgal when she performed in the early 90s in Sao Paulo, Brazil. It was mesmerizing, and started a fascination with India that led me to visit several times, study Hinduism and falling in love with Indian culture. I am so glad and grateful for the joy your art brings to me, I wish I could meet you someday. All the best, and thank you.

[@MaryamShakiba]

Thank you so much for your lovely comment! Ah she is indeed so captivating - what an amazing introduction to Indian culture! Wishing you all the best

Beautiful movements! I started practicing the Odissi dance just about a week ago, but it already feels wonderful. Thank you!

[@MaryamShakiba]

Oh that's fantastic to hear! Yes odissi really gives such a beautiful way to experience the body. Are you in Israel by any chance? I hope you are connected with my dear friend, Dinoor Elster :) Best wishes on your odissi journey!

C’est tellement gracieux et parfaitement maîtrisé un vrai enchantement pour les yeux et pour l’âme.

Merci beaucoup

[@MandaLynn8]

I am from southern US and have become very aware of the energy of Ganesha in my life. Your dancing speaks so strongly to me. I feel peace and satisfaction. And pride. I am entertaining trying for myself perhaps as offering. Thank you for such beauty.

[@MaryamShakiba]

Dear MandaLynn, thank you for your wonderful comment! I love that you feel all of those things within yourself, we are truly communicating through art! I would wholeheartedly encourage you to try 😊 Keep an eye out on my channel as well, as I'm planning on releasing movement tutorial videos etc over the next few weeks/months 😊🙏 Bless you!

インド人女性はおデブさんが多いけど、マリヤムさんのスリムな鍛え抜かれた体は素晴らしい。長い手足、平らな胸、スッとしたよい姿勢、伸びた背筋が本当にきれい。お顔も美しい。鍛錬を積んだ人らしいストイックな落ち着いた雰囲気がさらに彼女の魅力と品を際立たせている。カーストや不衛生さなど、インドは欠点も多い国だけど、この方の存在はインド文化の素晴らしい面そのものだね。

[@Springsinger1]

Hello Maryam, I am a new fan. Your poses remind me of statues of angelic beings from Ancient India's past. Thank you for sharing these videos. I especially like the hand gestures, and your hip angles. You are wonderful and graceful.

Je suis hypnotisé et envoûté ... A quel âge avez-vous commencé l'apprentissage de la danse et cette forme de danse en particulier ? Et quelle ( s ) formes ( s ) de Yoga pratiquez-vous ?

Merci beaucoup! 🙏 I started odissi learning when I was 23. The yoga style I prefer to practice is called Vinyasa Krama :) though I also did a lot of Iyengar when I first started learning yoga (also 23).

you are BEAUTIFUL... wow. i love the movements. this is traditional Indian dance? or is something contemporary mixed in? when you are moving to some of those soothing electronic music sounds and the natural environment you're in. and i love what you're wearing. you're super beautiful. like a dream really. thank you

[@MaryamShakiba]

Parts of it are traditional Indian dance (the odissi dance form) and some is just me having some fun :) I am glad you enjoyed it!

Hello maryam , you are a beautiful dancer !! From witch pallavi your extract are ? Thanks you 🙏🌞

[@MaryamShakiba]

Hi! It is from Kirwani pallavi 😊 thank you! 🙏❤️

[@ulfnowotny01]

What does the pose mean when you are turning your head away from both hands? It looks very special.

[@MaryamShakiba]

Hi, thanks for your comment. I'm not sure I know which section you mean... perhaps the zoomed into the face section around 5:13? It was a play on an image we sometimes play out where the sun is very bright and we shield ourselves from the sun :) and then I turned to just soak it in. ☀

[@ulfnowotny01]

@@MaryamShakiba That's exactly the one I mean. It looks so beautiful that words fail me.

[@MaryamShakiba]

I’m glad it touched you! There is a feeling of surrendering and basking in the light 🌞 and I suppose that can be a metaphor for many things ❤️

[@ulfnowotny01]

[@ulfnowotny01]

Dear Maryam, I hope you are Ok. Don't let the madness touch you.

[@eaglelight108]

Wow! Can you also explain the vocal calls to me? Dey dey Tika dey etc.

[@MaryamShakiba]

Hi! The syllables are called ‘Bols’ in the Odissi tradition - they are related to various sound/rhythmic patterns of the drum (typically the pakhawaj or mardala in Odissi). So each sound is related to a particular way the drum is struck. And putting them together you can create rhythmic phrases that we can then dance on 😊 in the South Indian music tradition it’s called konnakol - you’ll be able to find lots of videos about it!

1:50 - 2:09 : I'd like to know what's this sequence called. Thank you and have a good one.

[@MaryamShakiba]

Hi, this is called the Bhumi Pranam, which translates roughly to 'salutation to the earth'. In odissi, we always start and end our dance practice with this sequence :)

WHAT IS SPECIAL ABOUT BEING A HINDU? By Francois Gautier. Diversity in Divinity and Unity in Spirituality. 1) Believe in God ! - Aastik - Accepted 2) Don't believe in God ! - You're accepted as Nastik 3) You want to worship idols - please go ahead. You are a murti pujak. 4) You dont want to worship idols - no problem. You can focus on Nirguna Brahman. 5) You want to criticise something in our religion. Come forward. We are logical. Nyaya, Tarka etc. are core Hindu schools. 6) You want to accept beliefs as it is. Most welcome. Please go ahead with it. 7) You want to start your journey by reading Bhagvad Gita - Sure ! 8) You want to start your journey by reading Upanishads - Go ahead. 9) You want to start your journey by reading Purana - Be my guest. 10) You just don't like reading Puranas or other books. No problem my dear. Go by Bhakti tradition . ( bhakti- devotion) 11) You don't like idea of Bhakti ! No problem. Do your Karma. Be a karmayogi. 12) You want to enjoy life. Very good. No problem at all. This is Charvaka Philosophy. 13) You want to abstain from all the enjoyment of life & find God - jai ho ! Be a Sadhu, an ascetic ! 14) You don't like the concept of God. You believe in Nature only - Welcome. (Trees are our friends and Prakriti or nature is worthy of worship). 15) You believe in one God or Supreme Energy. Superb! Follow Advaita philosophy 16) You want a Guru. Go ahead. Receive gyaan. 17) You don't want a Guru.. Help yourself ! Meditate, Study ! 18) You believe in Female energy ! Shakti is worshipped. 19) You believe that every human being is equal. Yeah! You're awesome, come on let's celebrate Hinduism! "Vasudhaiva kutumbakam" (the world is a family) 20) You don't have time to celebrate the festival. Don't worry. One more festival is coming! There are multiple festivals every single day of the year. 21) You are a working person. Don't have time for religion. Its okay. You will still be a Hindu. 22) You like to go to temples. Devotion is loved. 23) You don't like to go to temples - no problem. You are still a Hindu! 24) You know that Hinduism ☺ is a way of life, with considerable freedom. 25) You believe that everything has God in it. So you worship your mother, father, guru, tree, River, Prani-matra, Earth, Universe! 26) And If you don't believe that everything has GOD in it - No problems. Respect your viewpoint. 27) "Sarve jana sukhino bhavantu " (May you all live happily) You represent this! You're free to choose, my dear Hindu! This is exactly the essence of Hinduism, all inclusive .. That is why it has withstood the test of time inspite of repeated onslaught both from within and outside, and assimilated every good aspects from everything . That is why it is eternal !!! There is a saying in Rigveda , the first book ever known to mankind which depicts the Hinduism philosophy in a Nutshell -" Ano bhadrah Krathavo Yanthu Vishwathah"- Let the knowledge come to us from every direction "...
