Abstract
In a constant effort towards development in the physical, intellectual, social, and emotional wellbeing, the human tendencies always keep visiting and revisiting the spiritual dimension for an upper sense of validation. All human activity somehow takes refuge and develops through the presence of this spiritual faculty. Where classical dance holds a well-esteemed status in the deliverance of the spiritual goals human beings possess, Kathak dance continues to illuminate an artist's life by the spiritual role it offers. The paper studies how education in Kathak can yield this universal purpose of spiritual growth. Various reflections in the style and structure of the Kathak education further strengthens the fact that learning and dancing Kathak truly invokes a remarkable spiritual upsurge. This acknowledgement of the Supreme Power by the inner self ascertains persistence, value, harmony and thus fosters a spiritual evolution in its true sense.
