Arts & Culture
T. D. Singh was an
enthusiastic participant and proponent of the Arts. He was a singer,
songwriter, published author and poet. He founded, and performed with,
the
Ranganiketan Manipuri Cultural Arts Troupe to share with
the world the quintessence of the Bhagavata tradition. Wherever he
traveled he always encouraged local cultures to share their Bhagavat
traditions through the medium of the Arts.
“People from
various corners of the world will come much closer to each other, in
friendship and understanding, through the universal language of art and
culture.”
T.D. Singh
