* One of the key themes of the book is the idea of "Kotbadu," which refers to the inner consciousness or spirit of the dancer.
* Padma Subramaniyam argues that Bharatanatyam is not just a physical performance but also a spiritual practice that requires the dancer to cultivate a deep connection with their inner self.
* This book also explores the role of music, poetry, and mythology in Bharatanatyam, highlighting how these elements are used to convey complex emotions and ideas to the audience.
