  Bharata - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bharata was the half-brother of Lord Rama, and the son of Emperor Dasaratha and Kaikeyi of the Solar Dynasty.
Bharata did not want to rule the kingdom which was rightfully his elder brother Rama's and so he placed Rama's sandals on the throne and managed the kingdom on behalf of his elder brother during Rama's 14 years of exile.
King Bharata was the son of King Dushyanta and Shakuntala and thus a descendant of the Lunar Dynasty.

 Concept of Nayaka in Bharat's Natyashashtra by Parimal Phadke
Bharata was a dramaturgist and he was aware that in a play, the friends of the hero act as intermediaries between the Nāyaka and the Nāyika.
After this Bharata talks about the four stages he explicitly states the reaction of the woman to her co-wives which means it is presumed that the Nāyaka is a polygamist or indulges in women out of wedlock.
Bharata also mentions “Śatha” as a term which would be addressed by the Nāyika when the Nāyaka for his own purpose speaks sweet words and indulges in all misdoings behind her back.

 Bharatha Natyam   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Bharata Natyam, along with the other classical art forms in India, has its origins in the manuscript called the Natya Shastra which was written by Sage Bharata around 4000 B.C. It was primarily conceived out of the urge to express one's emotions and exuberance.
Bharata Natyam, it is said, is the embodiment of music in visual form, a ceremony, and an act of devotion.
Bharata Natyam has three distinct elements to it: Nritta (rhythmic movements of pure aesthetic value), Nritya (movements in which expression or abhinaya is emphasized), and Natya (dance with a dramatic aspect).

 Bharat Is Not India [ King Bharata and the Second Aryan Invasion of India ]   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Bharatavarsha did not include the whole of India and never did, but only denoted the kingdom of the Aryan invader Bharata, who was a chieftain of one of the Aryan tribes that invaded India.
Bharata's ancestors lived in the region of the Caspian sea in Central Asia; they were nomadic tribesmen of Aryan stock.
Hence, the Brahminist concept of `One Ancient Bharata' under perpetual dominion of the Brahmin Aryans is a fallacy.

 Article: Bharata Natyam
When India's Bharata Natyam revival and reform movements gained momentum in the 1920s and 30s, dialectical tensions arose between the separate camps, their ideologies, and their activities; for the "perverted" dance of the devadasi was reconstructed as a nationalist emblem while the devadasi, herself, was legislatively barred from her religious profession.
For a woman may progress through stages of Bharata Natyam; and in a sublime, performative moment -- a moment that has been achieved by "gendered" agency -- she may rise to the level of the superior being.
As Bharata Natyam was codified according to ancient texts, the "new" dance became the definer of the "old" or ancient form of sadir; meanwhile, the current form of sadir was claimed to be a "faded, distorted remnant of some ancient classical dance" and denied its place as a dance in its own right.

While modern dance can be studied as a mere technique, the symbolic and devotional aspects — which are an integral part of Bharata Natyam — cannot be completely understood or mastered in only a few years of study.
Mastering each and every movement of the head, eyes, mouth, neck, hands, and the whole body is a requirement which allows the dancer to communicate the profound and lasting truths to the people through the elaborated technique of Bharata Natyam.
