  • When Yogis Become Warriors—The Embodied Spirituality of Kal.Aripayattu
    religions Article When Yogis Become Warriors—The Embodied Spirituality of Kal.aripayattu Maciej Karasinski-Sroka Department of Foreign Languages, Hainan University, Haikou 570208, China; [email protected] Abstract: This study examines the relationship between body and spirituality in kal.aripayattu (kal.arippayattu), a South Indian martial art that incorporates yogic techniques in its training regimen. The paper is based on ethnographic material gathered during my fieldwork in Kerala and interviews with practitioners of kal.aripayattu and members of the Nayar¯ clans. The Nayars¯ of Kerala created their own martial arts that were further developed in their family gymnasia (ka.lari). These ka.laris had their own training routines, initiations and patron deities. Ka.laris were not only training grounds, but temples consecrated with daily rituals and spiritual exercises performed in the presence of masters of the art called gurukkals. For gurukkals, the term ka.lari has a broader spectrum of meaning—it denotes the threefold system of Nayar¯ education: Hindu doctrines, physical training, and yogico-meditative exercises. This short article investigates selected aspects of embodied spirituality in kal.aripayattu and argues that body in kal.ari is not only trained but also textualized and ritualized. Keywords: kal.aripayattu; yoga; embodied spirituality 1. Introduction Ferrer(2008, p. 2) defines embodied spirituality as a philosophy that regards all Citation: Karasinski-Sroka, Maciej. dimensions of human beings –body, soul, spirit, and consciousness—as “equal partners in 2021.

Among all the qualities, ahiṁsā and kṣamā constitute the qualities of a saint. The minimum qualifications for a saint are these two qualities. One need not have wisdom, one need not have scriptural learning to be a saint, but one must have these two values. A saint is a person who never consciously hurts another person by action, word, or thought, and who accepts people – good or bad – just as they are. A saint is he who has an endless capacity to be accommodative, forgiving, and merciful.” -Pujya Sri Swami Dayananda Arsha Vidya Pitham Programs 3 & Special Events 2020 AVG Events Calendar ......................................................................................................... 0 Spring Vedānta Programs ................................................................................................... 0 Summer Vedānta Programs ................................................................................................ 0 Children’s Programs ............................................................................................................ 0 Fall Vedānta Programs ........................................................................................................ 0 Special Vedānta Programs .................................................................................................. 0 Vedānta Teaching Centers .................................................................................................

  • Historical Timeline of Hinduism in America 1780'S Trade Between
    3/3/16, 11:23 AM Historical Timeline of Hinduism in America 1780's Trade between India and America. Trade started between India and America in the late 1700's. In 1784, a ship called "United States" arrived in Pondicherry. Its captain was Elias Hasket Derby of Salem. In the decades that followed Indian goods became available in Salem, Boston and Providence. A handful of Indian servant boys, perhaps the first Asian Indian residents, could be found in these towns, brought home by the sea captains.[1] 1801 First writings on Hinduism In 1801, New England writer Hannah Adams published A View of Religions, with a chapter discussing Hinduism. Joseph Priestly, founder of English Utilitarianism and isolater of oxygen, emigrated to America and published A Comparison of the Institutions of Moses with those of the Hindoos and other Ancient Nations in 1804. 1810-20 Unitarian interest in Hindu reform movements The American Unitarians became interested in Indian thought through the work of Hindu reformer Rammohun Roy (1772-1833) in India. Roy founded the Brahmo Samaj which tried to reform Hinduism by affirming monotheism and rejecting idolotry. The Brahmo Samaj with its universalist ideas became closely allied to the Unitarians in England and America. 1820-40 Emerson's discovery of India Ralph Waldo Emerson discovered Indian thought as an undergraduate at Harvard, in part through the Unitarian connection with Rammohun Roy. He wrote his poem "Indian Superstition" for the Harvard College Exhibition of April 24, 1821. In the 1830's, Emerson had copies of the Rig-Veda, the Upanishads, the Laws of Manu, the Bhagavata Purana, and his favorite Indian text the Bhagavad-Gita.
