‘I can see clear bridges between my life experiences and my work in dance.’ How does Kumudini Lakhia weave episodes from the two realms in her account?

In her account, Kumudini Lakhia explains that the basis of her work in dance is formed by her life experiences. She says that she lived her life though she was focused on dance. From her life experiences, she has taken cues to present them in her dance.
She tells how, in conflict or Duvida, the plight of a middle-class woman who is chained to the Indian life traditions is examined by her. In Atah Kim, we can observe how the author bases the theme on the desire for power which was experienced by her after her schooling.
Kumudini’s work Panch Paras is based on the realm of life. She explains her experience with spiritualism, the arguments she used to have with her grandmother based on God’s existence, etc. This bit of experience is used by her in Panch Paras as a theme.
