Read On To Know More About Theyyam Festival:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Theyyam is a sacred ritual art form that dates back to at least 1,500 years<\/strong> and is usually performed before the village shrine, groves, and in some joint-family houses as ancestor-worship with elaborate rites and rituals. The word Theyyam literally means ‘God<\/strong>‘ and hence the Theyyam dance<\/strong> is known as the ‘Dance of Gods<\/strong>‘. This unique dance form is a synthesis of ritual, dance, vocal and instrumental music, painting, sculpture and also literature and is performed to worship Hindu Goddess Kali for which it is also known as ‘Kaliyattam<\/strong>‘. The Theyyam dance is often performed by men, mostly from the scheduled castes and tribes who have inherited the right to perform Theyyam. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Theyyam<\/strong> has its roots in the ancient Dravidian culture of South India<\/strong> and therefore it is a part of the ancient tribal culture of Kerala<\/a><\/strong> where tribal animism was once the most common form of worship. Hence, in Theyyam rituals, trees, plants, and animals are worshipped along with Hindu gods. When the dancers are costumed as Theyyam, the spirit of the deity is conceptually transferred to the artist and they are considered as God by the devotees to whom they seek blessings. Theyyam are not only capable of blessing the devotees, but also cure their illness and give solutions to their problems. Some rituals in Theyyam performance involves dancers walking on hot coal, the sacrifice of a rooster, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlights of Theyyam<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The colourful costumes and exotic make-up are the main highlights of Theyyam. The Theyyam performer is called \u2018Kolam<\/strong>\u2019 who represents a divine, mythological, or heroic character. Theyyam is often performed by men and they themselves enact the female roles also by wearing elaborate make-up and costumes. The facial makeup is so intricate that the artist has to lie on the floor for hours while the designs are painted on their faces. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The most sacred part of the costume is the headgear which is made from tender coconut leaves. The facial makeup and the headgear vary from character to character. The crown (muti) is made from bamboo splices and wooden planks which are covered with colour cloths, coconut leaves and flowers. Arm ornaments, breastplates, bangles, garland and other body decorations are also used in Theyyam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Do You Experience?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Theyyam is unique, powerful and a divine splendour to watch. the Theyyam performance begins with Vellattam or Thottam<\/strong>. It is performed with only a small red headdress and no proper make-up or any decorative costume is used during this occasion. Then the dancers are accompanied by drummers and they recite a particular ritual song, which describes the myths and legends of how the deity of the shrine came to be honored. Folk musical instruments are also used at this time. The dancer returns to the green room, after finishing this primary ritualistic part of the chant. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After a short interval, the dancer makes a ritual entrance into the shrine with elaborate costumes and makeup. Then he is seated before the shrine and the headdress, which is the most sacred part of the costume is put on and he gradually transforms into the particular deity of the shrine. Until the headdress is removed, he is considered as divine. The Theyyam runs all around the shrine and its courtyard, dancing and performing rituals and blessing the devotees. At last, the dancer distributes turmeric powder as a symbol of blessing and also throws rice on the audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
