Twenty-one deaf dancers performed their trade mark dance,  “Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva” to audiences in China taking their audiences back in time to the Tang Dynasty.  To enthusiastic applause, the deaf dancers synchronized their moves perfectly with the music, assisted by two sign language conductors.  At the end of the dance, lead dancer Tai Lihua spoke to the audience in sign language, “Through helping others, you will be helped by a thousand hands when you are in need.  Love is the universal language of humanity.”  Shaanxi Province is the Sister Province of Minnesota.  View the dance at http://tinyurl.com/shaanxidance
