The Bhakti tradition teaches the expression of the deepest emotions of love that sit within each one of us. Words alone may not convey that - thus there is dance, drama, poetry and song - all meant to combine education and emotion to raise the consciousness of the universe. We thank the Bhaktivedanta Nrityakatha Academy (BNA) for preserving and promoting this tradition with their beautiful offerings which move hearts, enchant minds, and may just bring a tear drop to the eye.

I have witnessed Bhaktivedanta Nrityakatha Academy evolve over three decades—from its humble beginnings right here at ISKCON Secunderabad to a powerful platform of devotional storytelling. Their presentations are not just performances; they are living, breathing expressions of Bhakti and storytelling.

Bhaktivedanta Nrityakatha Academy has a rare story-telling gift — they transform sacred narratives and scriptures into soul-stirring dance dramas. Every performance carries the mood of devotion and leaves a lasting impression on all who witness them

Bhaktivedanta Nrityakatha Academy’s presentations are not only artistically captivating but spiritually uplifting. Every performance is imbued with sincerity, culture, and deep devotion. I have often felt that Śrīla Prabhupāda would be immensely pleased to see Krishna consciousness conveyed with such grace and impact. This is preaching through art — a service that touches hearts and glorifies the Lord meaningfully.
