"Bhagyachandra also went on to establish the Nata Sankirtana (also called Nupa Pala), a very crucial form of worship in Manipur. It is an intricate combination of rhythmic movents, music and rituals and is something that permeates every aspect of Manipuri life and culture, till date. It synthesized several elements of the pre-Vaishnava, indigenous Meitei culture, beliefs and rituals."
