Kalari Payattu, Martial Arts - India

Uploaded by: mmanoba

Video Stream Description:
Kalari is a very tiny and surviving fragment of ancient Indian martial art called 'Varma Kalai'. Varma is the mother of all martial arts which spread across Asia through Hinduism and Buddhism.
Proof: 1) Similarities could be found in Chinese, Tibetan, Sri Lankan, etc. dance, music, martial arts with Indian arts. E.g. Therukootthu, Kathakali (flamboyant facial make-ups), Kerala Chenda drums, the rhythm all are adopted in China, Tibet, Japan and other south-eastern countries in the form o
f Lion, Dragon dances' flamboyant decorations, drums, rhythm, etc. 2) Similarities could be found between martial arts and Mudras (symbolic gestures) of yoga & Indian classical dances, and their movements. Probably dance, martial arts and yoga all might have evolved at the same time along with music, meditation, etc. They share the common property of being melodic.
There are several categories in Varma: NOkku (vision) Varmam, Thattu Varmam (deals with treatments and defense based on vital points), Chandra (moon) Varmam, Surya (sun) Varmam, usage of weapons on vital points, Varma treatments for animals, etc. In local tongue often Varma is called as "Marma", w
hich may not be correct. The word "Varma" doesn't have a Sanskrit origin as in "Varn(m)a - color". Varumam in Tamil means vital points (there are other meanings too). These techniques are extensively developed by Siddhas (well known for their Ayurvedic and alchemy works), who dwelt in mountains of
South India, especially Tamil Nadu. Even today, there are legends around Courtralam, Suruli, Pazhani and Nilgiri hills, which speak about surviving Siddhas till date, who have eventually achieved longevity through their knowledge in Ayurveda, alchemy, meditation, etc. Sadly, many of these technique
s are lost due to the Guru's fear of misuse on co-species (as we humans are notorious for turning any scientific works, bar none, into weapons of destruction), and thus they refused to transfer the knowledge to others, including to their own descendants. This happened particularly, when Buddhism tur
ned into political movement and the Buddhists started to learn these arts for their political gains. However tiny fragments of Varma survived in the form of literature, mainly Tamil & Malayalam, and got the attention of Gurus in Kerala, a small state in south India, arround ~15-17th centuries, and became Kalarippayattu. This famous traditional training of Kalari of Kerala, is always done inside the Kalari (literally, threshing floor or battlefield), which is a specially constructed practice area. Payattu means 'exercise in arms or practice'.
A few centuries back in Kerala, quarrels between local kings were resolved by fixing an Ankam (war), a duel to the death, between two Ankachekavars (kalari fighters), each ruler being represented by one Ankachekavar. The ruler represented by the surviving Ankachekavar was considered the winner.

First of all HI to everyone, I just love it when people are so really nice to each other lol. Just wanted to share my 2 cents worth. I am from New Zealand and i love martial arts. In fact i have studied it since i was 4 years old. i have learned 4 fighting arts, Thai kick boxing, kung fu, judo and jiu jitsu.

cont: Now to me ... ( 3 months ago by pheonixinrage)

cont: Now to me they are not too different from each other,cause all styles could be combined together very effectively in combat. i remember the one thing that matters most in these arts, which is peace of mind. The first thing i learned in kung fu was meditation and as far as i know all arts originate from the human mind. if you are calm and at peace, you see clearly and think clearly and make things possible.

So next time if any ... ( 3 months ago by pheonixinrage)

So next time if any of your are in a fight. stay calm and you will create your own martial arts techniques to defend and attack opponents. Cheers. PS: Just my 2 cents worth!!

If your comment was aimed at me, then i would like to say that i was not boasting.. i was simply trying to say something of experience, which i think some people lack and come to conclusions that MA originated in one origin. And so you see and read arguments and comments as such on this page. So next time b4 judging anyones comment, see where they are coming from. Regards PS: as i said b4, Just my two cents worth.

You've not been to Kerala, have you? This is very indeed Indian, maybe the oldest in the world.... Oldest surviving one, at least. This is pure murder, especially when used against many opponents. Imagine a steel blade which works like a whip swirling around your opponent in a blur. Karate won't stand a chance! Any punch or kick they use will give them a bloody limb!
