Event Description: Tapasaya Foundation presents Asoka - Monarch To Monk, Dance Drama

In today's context, where hatred is expanding its wings across the hearts of humans, the play aims to educate the masses, especially youth, that real peace can be established by winning the hearts, not by winning battles. The play unfolds with the childhood of Asoka caged by the partial behaviour of his father, Bindusar which ropes the seeds of hatred inside Asoka making him ambitious, cruel and timid altogether. Upon clasping the throne through cruelty, Asoka the emperor went on to conquer Kalinga (present Orissa), the following war makes a great impact on his life and psychological state of his mind. Eventually accepting Buddhism, Asoka submits himself on the path of non- violence and to work for the betterment of mankind and humanity. Plus the text talks about the last days of Asoka, from ambitious youth to a cruel monarch and further to a peace lover and a Monk through the medium of theatrical performance.
