SDN’s Vandé Mataram is an Ode to Mother India. Violence and hatred have an equal share with unity and integrity in any part of the world. We fight, we differentiate, we also embrace and celebrate. The circumstances might change, but, we humans are the same...

Vande Mataram (Act 5)- Hegemony to Harmony

This scene is a depiction of communal clashes, in the name of religion, by people of impulsive nature and how ultimate love and peace are preached by all religions. As the Hindus begin their rituals in the Temple, the Christians begin their prayers in the Church and so do the Muslims in the Mosque. Infuriated by their mutual disturbances, they begin a riot which is depicted using intricate rhythmic syllables.

When their respective Leaders point out to them that the pious have taught only love and not hatred to seek God, the rioters realise their mistake and resort to Peace. Sorting out each other’s ways, they sought to pray without being a disturbance to other.

When all our sense organs shut, the inner Self becomes active. For, it is only in SILENCE that God can be heard.
