In India, dance is intended to be a sincere representation of the beauty of life and can even provide a glimpse of the divine. The distinctive hand and finger movements are called mudras, which is Sanskrit for 'spiritual gesture' and directly linked to Buddhism. Another interpretation is that they are a 'seal,' or finishing touch, on the mantra to which they are linked.
