 THE
STAGES IN KALARIPAYATTU:- Kalari payattu is divided into 4 stages. They
are meipayattu or maithari (body), kolthari(sticks),
angathari(metal weapons), verumkai (without weapon or
empty hand). If one desires to become a teacher (Gurunathan) of
Kalaripayattu, further 3 more stages have to be completed viz. Chiktsavidhikal
(treatment) , manthrathantra (remembrance of God etc.), marmagnanam
(knowledge of Marmas or pressure points). The student who excels
himself in the 7 qualities will be normally selected for the training of
Guru. |
