{{Quote box|width=360px|bgcolor=|align=left|quoted=1|salign=right|quote=Dance is a highly-developed art. In the Oriental variety of music, you know, three items come within the fold of saḿgiita, or music: dance, song, and instrumental music. The collective name in Sanskrit is saḿgiita. Lord Sadáshiva brought everything within the framework of science, and just now I called it “artistic science”.
{{Quote box|width=360px|bgcolor=|align=left|quoted=1|salign=right|quote=He is not the ruler; He is not the administrator; He is not the boss. He is the creator, the generator; He is the operator; and He is the destroyer. When He withdraws His thought waves within Himself then nothing will remain. You came from Him, you are moving within His mind, and finally you will be one with Him. That’s why I said that He as generator is represented by “G”; He as operator is represented by “O”; and He as destructor is represented by “D” “G”, “O”, “D”. He is “God”.<ref name="AV12"/>|source=Shrii Shrii Anandamurti}}

Anandamurti starts the discourse by stating that music, dance and song already existed before Shiva (7000 years ago), but It was Lord Shiva who combined them into an orderly science. He explains that Oriental dance contains various mudrás (postures) and táńd́ava is it's pristine expression. <ref name="AV12"/>


Anandamurti goes on by stating that táńd́ava represents life and Tantra is the spirit of overcoming darkness through struggle. <ref name="AV12"/>
