Check this out ­ it's awesome

 
The dancers on this are amazing.
 
There is an awesome dance, called the Thousand-Hand Kuan Yin, which is
making the rounds across the net.  All 21 of the dancers are deaf. Relying
only on signals from trainers at the four corners of the stage, these
extraordinary dancers deliver a visual spectacle that is at once intricate
and stirring.
 
Kuan Yin is the bodhisattva of compassion, revered by Buddhists as the
Goddess of Mercy. Her name is short for Kuan Shi Yin. Guan means to observe,
watch, or monitor; Shi means the world; Yin means sounds, specifically
sounds of those who suffer. Thus, Kuan Yin is a compassionate being who
watches over, and responds to, the people in the world who cry out for help.
 
WHEE-MD Observations
 
This is a meditative dance. Not only the dancers, but those observing the
dance can enter a state of deeper, higher awareness. Such dance is a common
spiritual practice in traditional societies ­ something that Western
religion generally does not pursue.
 
Meditative, spiritual dance, a ritualized series of movements, invites
spiritual awareness through mental focus on the body. This works well as a
spiritual practice because it is a wholistic involvement of
Body ­ through movement
Emotions ­ quieting distracting emotions, inviting resonation with the love
and compassion of Kuan Yin
Mind ­ focusing on the ritualized movement, quieting distracting thoughts
Relationships ­ each of the dancers very closely linked with others, outside
of self, becoming one with the others, inviting awareness of being one with
others on deeper levels of beingness/ relatedness; and as an extension,
being intimately linked the world beyond
Spirit ­ through meditation and linking with the collective awareness of the
spirit of Kuan Yin, linking with the broader world of Spirit
 
Eastern practices of yoga, T'ai Chi, Qigong and the meditative martial arts
similarly open into spiritual awareness.
