Spiti Folksong Project: Ne Dang Phungma
<p>I have grown up admiring my grandmother’s rich repertoire of cultural folk songs. She knows a song for every occasion and for every element of nature be it the sun, moon, wind, water or the fields. With every ounce of time, I get to spend with her during my breaks, I have learnt a lot listening to the meanings of her repository of songs. These are limited to not just the melody or the diverse songs she knows but also how all of it resemble the interconnectedness of nature and its elements with the way we live our everyday here in Spiti; how all of it shows the oneness of human beings and their agrarian life with nature; how the Spitian way of sustenance, survival and culture is very linked with the elements of nature be it in our songs, proverbs or beliefs.</p>
