When I saw the four words "Thousand-Hand Avalokitesvara", the dance from the 2005 Spring Festival Gala immediately came to mind. A group of young girls (later I discovered that there were also male dancers among them) dressed in golden dance costumes, performed in a very distinctive dance.

Accompanied by music, he quickly and neatly changed his gestures and postures, presenting stunningly beautiful shapes. Everyone was visually shocked, and bursts of applause burst spontaneously from the audience? So you have to ask, right?

Do you still have an impression? My answer is only four words: the memory is still fresh!

Do not praise suffering, but praise the strong life in suffering. "Thousand-Hand Guanyin" was praised by all at that time, not only because of the success of the dance itself, but also because of the special performing group: the show was performed by the China Disabled Persons Art Troupe,

Are all the actors deaf and mute? They cannot hear the sound. Relying on the tacit understanding reached through thousands of rehearsals and the on-site teacher's command from the sidelines, they gave a perfect performance to the people in the audio world and also made people appreciate life.

We have a more intuitive understanding of the hardship and resilience.

We do not praise suffering, but every life that has experienced suffering but remains strong deserves our deep respect.

This is probably one of the reasons why "Thousand-Hand Guanyin" is still often mentioned after so many years.

Tai Lihua, who became famous as the lead dancer, became a messenger of beauty and humanity. Because of the choreography, in the approximately 5-minute program, for a long time only the dancer in the front row could show her face. This "front row" dancer was Tai Lihua.

After the Spring Festival Gala that year, it was no surprise that he became well-known. In today's terms, it can be called "explosionally popular".

Tai Lihua lost her hearing due to a high fever when she was 2 years old. She started practicing dancing at the age of 15 and was 29 when she appeared on the Spring Festival Gala stage.

After becoming famous, Tai Lihua has not lost her way. Whether in the world of dance or in the real world, she is pure and focused.

She always calls herself one-twenty-one ("Thousand-Hand Guanyin" has 21 performers). She and her team partners complete performances again and again, arrange and perform new programs, and learn to dance "The Spirit of the Bird".

" also received praise and guidance from Yang Liping, and created and starred in "Butterfly" which caused a sensation at the UNESCO headquarters.

After growing up to be the leader of the China Disabled People's Art Troupe, Tai Lihua led the team to carry out a large number of charity activities and benefit performances, and used the saved performance income to inject funds to establish the "My Dream" Harmony Fund, which successively provided aid to earthquake-stricken areas in Sichuan, Zuoquan

He has donated 2.96 million yuan to the old revolutionary base area and 400,000 US dollars to international charity projects. He is known as the "messenger of beauty and humanity".

Although China’s and the world’s “Thousand-Hand Avalokitesvara” is well-known through the Spring Festival Gala, the first stage of “Thousand-Hand Avalokitesvara” was the closing ceremony of the 2004 Athens Paralympic Games.

The program rich in oriental charm shocked the audience as soon as it debuted. It was well received from abroad and came to China, so it was logical that it appeared on the Spring Festival Gala stage that year.

Since then, this dance has become one of the most famous dances in China, and has participated in major domestic and international performances such as the Washington government, the Beijing Paralympic Games, and the APEC meeting.

The United Nations Postal Department has issued a set of stamps reflecting the art of disabled people. "Thousand-Hand Guanyin" is among them, with a face value of 1.9 Swiss francs.

Nowadays, "Thousand-Hand Guanyin" has been born for 16 years. The beauty of the art remains fresh and the vitality is still strong, which can be seen from the fact that it is constantly imitated and adapted.

Therefore, many beautiful things have no expiry date and will be remembered and spread by people.
