Popular danseuse Sonal Mansingh has been conferred with the Srimanta Sankaradeva Award earlier today in recognition of her contributions to classical dance and keeping it alive in the contemporary times

This national level award, instituted in 1986 in the name of the greatest Assamese of all times, Mahapurush Srimanta Sankardev, recognises extraordinary contributions by Indians in various fields.

Here are some beautiful dance related quotes of Sonal Mansingh-

1. Rasa is not just a word— it is a dimension of awareness where heart meets the intellect creating a state of Bliss

2. Dance is not only performance — it is recall of stories, of values, of the beauty & soul of India

3. Dance is my prayer, my belief, my offering — each movement a mantra, each stillness a truth

4. Even the very act of imagining the next choreography, the next movement, becomes a journey of inner restoration and peace

5. Someone who has missed out on dance has missed out on a vast journey of consciousness, awareness, and awakening. Dance, she says, is not just movement — it is experience, observation, body-mind alignment, soul connection, literature, and expression woven into one

6. Art is not an escape; it is a return to our roots, our dharma, and dialogue with our soul

7. Each artist is an island among the many in the ocean of art
