#Karana means 'action' and in the context of dance it indicates a coordinated action of the body, the hands and the feet. There are 108 karanas out of which i am depicting "lalata tilakam" which is the 50th karana

Out of this dancer is depicting #Lalatatilakam - Image
ललाटे तिलकं कुर्याल्ललाटतिलकं तु तत् ।
पृष्ठतः कुञ्चितं कृत्वा व्यतिक्रान्तक्रमं ततः ॥

#Lalatatilakam images show #Shiva (not in the image) lifting his right leg straight upwards parallel to his torso and one of his left arms go up and the hand touches the crown.
One of the right arms of Shiva winds his lifted leg and makes the #abhaya gesture. Some of the earliest of these images are found at #kanchipuram , while some of the later figures of this dance form are from #Chidambaram ,
