Every state deserved their culture to be preserved and praised about instead of going abroad and trying to imitate so called Western culture. Most North Indian States doesn't even try to preserve anything they have. Even people don't wanna do anything regarding it. In Kerala it was the same before like a few decades when people migrated to other states and countries because they hated their place. Now it has changed 180°. I hope the same will happen with other states. That's the first reason we even created different states. We are supposed to preserve it. Just like how bollywood converted bangra music to annoying auto tuned piece of shit, I hope the culture won't get whitewashed in North. It's never too late.

When I was watching this video I remembered the time when I saw Theyyam for the first time. I saw Muthappn Theyyam (Muthappan is a hindu god and is worshiped more in the northern part of Kerala) and that was my first time seeing Theyyam at a close distance. It wasn't from a temple. The theyyam came to my relative's house warming function to perform prayers and dance and bless everyone in the family. After the prayers the crowd was approaching theyyam for blessings. I saw many returning crying and wiping their tears and thought why do people be so dramatic it's just a person in disguise. And after waiting for so long my chance came. As soon as I stood right infront of him, I started crying (remember that I was not a small kid I was 14 or 15). I did not cry because I was scared of his costume or anything. I cried because I couldn't believe my eyes. God was literally standing infront of me. When he saw me crying, he immediately opened his arms and hugged me with his hands on my head. Elder people placing their hands on someone's head is a way of blessing them. I was so happy that Muthappan blessed me. What surprised me was after I calmed down, he started asking me about my past. How can someone whom I just saw know about my past? He even told about my future and told my mother that she will be known in my name. I was really surprised, happy and emotional all at once. That was a memorable experience for me. One that I will never forget. Thank you Ayush for taking me back to those memories💗💗💗

Before that, or still now, our ancestors say "for us 'daivas'(demigods) come first 'devas' come next.

Don't you even know the reason why Sree Narayana Guru, Ayyankali, Periyaar etc had to fight so that the lower caste could worship their God. Because of this high caste domination in worship, the lower caste people started worshipping their own God. They have their own rituals. This is why I hate Hindutva. I didn't say I hate Hindus. Don't blabber anything out of anger. If I say I hate Hindus, what is the difference between you and me. We don't hate anyone. Our God muthappan treats everyone equal. Even if a girl is in her periods she is always free to enter the Madappura of Muthappan. Even if it is a non Hindu, he or she is free to visit muthappan unlike Guruvayoor temple. But I can't accept a false claim by Hindutva on my culture. All these are reasons that substantiate why Theyyam culture is different from Hindutva. In the main comment she said caste system didn't exist in the beginning. Seriously??? Caste system was the main frame of Hindutva. You are saying that these Gods are latter additions to Hindutva. No. Rather, this is a hijacking of Hindutva on our culture. In the famous Andaloor Kaavu in Kannur, the deity was Daivathaar. With the hijacking of Hindutva, some started calling Daivathaar as Sree Ram. Now these people are attempting to make Muthappan as Siva. You are rituals are the same in Theyyam? Some of the rituals were also hijacked by Hindu rituals. Hindu elements were added to it later by propagandists, by becoming members of the committees of Theyyakkavu. The agenda to hijack Theyyam culture has been there for a long time. That's why you can't see the difference in rituals now. They are being hijacked. Attempts are even made to make the Gods were sacred thread of Brahmins. When the lower caste people were banned from worshipping their gods, they started worshipping their God in their own way. That is Theyyam. It is also performed by lower caste people. The same lower caste people who were made slaves and discriminated by your Hindutva. If you are asking me why I hate Hindutva, I have strong reasons like these. But how dare you say I hate Hindus? I never said that. I don't hate any people belonging to other faith like you do.

We will meet someday....then

Theyyam is our version of martyr becoming a God. It includes both women and men. They all fought against different social issues and got killed after.

This is not just a dance or a ritual it's a form of Worship... The man who become theyyam , becoms the diety... He practices rigourous fasting and rituals to become theyyam.... It's not a performance but an actual form of worship... When he becomes theyyam sometimes he can predict future , give blessings also give advice to the devotees and solutions for their problems....

There is nothing called Aryan/Dravidian in Theyyam stories. Yes it is performed by so called lower castes. But upper castes including Brahmins bow down to these Theyyams. And the majority of stories and themes of Theyyams are of Hindu Gods like, Shiva, Vishnu, Kali etc. There are even Theyyams from Ramayana characters like Rama, Laxmana, Hanuman, Bali, Sugreeva etc. Pottan Theyyam is the thematic presentation of Shankaracharya's 'Maneesha Panchakam'. Some Theyyams even resort to Sanskrit chanting in between. And some of the lower caste artists are well versed in Sanskrit also. The vast portion of language used in Theyyams is Proto Dravidian language though, which even the present generation Malayalee cannot comprehend. Yes, there are many folk lore themes and hero worship also. In short it is sort of tribal presentation of Hindu Gods and Godesses performed by lower caste in their own vibrant way and worshipped by all including the so called upper castes. Your narration is ill informed and full of cliches. Get your facts right.

There is an art form called Padayani in the Pathanamthitta district in Kerala. Still, remember the day when I went with my parents to watch it. It was a chilling experience. This video made me remember the day. Thank you, Ayush, and best wishes to you. Your work really inspired me to connect with my past and remember the ancient ritual of Padayani.

Awesome. The Theyyam has been high up on my bucket list for a while now. It has now moved onto my must-do list.

This film is soooo beautifully made. Totally loved it. Thanks a lot !!!

This is so splendidly made, and the narration was so spell-binding. Having visited Kerala once, we had already decided that we'll just HAVE to to revisit several times. This video has just reinforced the decision. Thanks.

For the record: There are plenty of folk gods / spirits / divine energies worshipped in this form. Its not just limited to the spirits of people who fought against social injustices. These practices are widely existent in coastal Karnataka also. 🙂👍

India is the land of food, colors, culture, spirituality and festivities. We don’t force people to believe in one God and worship in any one specific pattern. People have the freedom to follow whoever and whatever they want, from Sun to rivers to mountains to holy trinity to female Shakti to even deities- which are specific to regions. And that’s why so many festivities and rituals. It’s just mind blowing. Happy and Proud to be part of this great “living” culture. Other Ancient civilisations are extinct - from ancient Greeks, Romans, Persians and Egyptians. While we exist and continue to thrive and carry this legacy forward.

Dear nitish, theyyam is such a ritual, which is not comes under the definition of ure so called 'sanathan dharma'. First of all, please understand That there are so many cultural traditions which not falls under 'sanatan dharma'. Theyyam performers comes from so called 'untouchable' castes (according to the sanatan dharma of ures) and the stories that they sung for theyyam (thottam paat) are stories of resistance, against the suppression, which faced by the downtrodden people. People from the soil. Study about it. Study about the purity and pollution, the bloody history, the chaos that the 'dharma' created. Please dont put it under the category of 'sanathan dharma'. Because theyyam has its own identity. With love, from kerla. ❤

And the word 'thi' also means in Malayalam 🔥 fire(agni) the purest thing and its colour is orange which is a sacred colour for hindhus and in central asian-chinese vedic hindhu-bhudhist mixed religion they used the word Thiya to glorify their gods like Dàzìzàithiān (Shiva), Dìshìtiān (Indra), Dàfàntiān (Brahma), Jíxiáng Tiānnǚ (Lakshmi), Biàncáithiān (Saraswati or Bharathi) and scy-thians are also an indo iraninan tribe In the Vedic tradition, soma (Sanskrit: सोम, romanized: sóma) is a ritual drink of importance among the early Vedic Indo-Aryans.The Rigveda mentions it, particularly in the Soma Mandala. Gita mentions the drink in chapter 9 It is equivalent to the Iranian haoma(alcohol drink)The relationship between humans and the deity was one of transaction, with Agni (the sacrificial fire) taking the role of messenger between the two.
