Description :South-East Asia includes not only Indonesia, but also Thailand,' Cambodia, Viet Narn, Malaya and Ceylon. All these parts of Asia may rightly be called the Greater India, as the religion and culture of these people have one thing in common in spite of their own conventions, peculiar art idioms and methods of presentation, in that their source and inspiration has been India. Comparative study of the dances of the South-East Asia will show the remarkable and most astounding influences both the Ramayana and the Mahabharata have had on the lives and arts of these people and and their powerful hold even today.
