Description :When tracing the beginnings and origins of the Indian fine arts and belles lettres, scholars naturally turn to the Vedic springs and to incidental references in the Vedangas like Siksa, Vyakarana, Nirukta and Chandas, Even in the pre-Vedic Mohenjodaro civilization, scholars might find some crude manifestations of dance and music. But in the plethora of academic controversies about chronology, racial minutiae and cultural milieu, the spirit or vital essence of our cultural heritage is missed, more often than not. Hence in this study, an attempt is made to disengage the essence of Indian poetry and dance from representative illustrations, drawn from original sources, steering clear of pedantic discusssions.

When tracing the beginnings and origins of the Indian fine arts and belles lettres, scholars naturally turn to the Vedic springs and to incidental references in the Vedangas like Siksa, Vyakarana, Nirukta and Chandas, Even in the pre-Vedic Mohenjodaro civilization, scholars might find some crude manifestations of dance and music. But in the plethora of academic controversies about chronology, racial minutiae and cultural milieu, the spirit or vital essence of our cultural heritage is missed, more often than not. Hence in this study, an attempt is made to disengage the essence of Indian poetry and dance from representative illustrations, drawn from original sources, steering clear of pedantic discusssions.
