Shastrarambhaya - The Initiation (part 2/2)
In a country where traditional ritual dances reserved for kings and gods are sold as crash courses to the rich in the city, two ritual dancers fight an uphill battle to preserve their family tradition.
The Tittapajjala Kala Ayatanaya is Sri Lanka's oldest traditional dance school set up specifically to train up-country aduras (ritual specialists) for shanti karma (healing rituals). Its founder Suramba gurunanse was one of Sri Lanka's finest Ves dancers and up-country ritual specialists. He was from the Tittapajjala bloodline that observed rajakairi (feudal services) under the medieval Kandyan monarchy.
Traditionally aduras were taught a variety of disciplines that included astrology, mathematics, metaphysics, alchemy, ayurvedic medicine, visual and performing arts. They served as both aesthetic and spiritual custodians to the commonwealth. Today pupils enrolling at the school are only interested in learning dance. Still Suramba's two sons Sumanaweera and Samaraweera continue their fathers kala ayatanaya with the same dedication, passion and principles.
All new arrivals to the school undergo this ceremony before they begin formal lessons. Apart from blessing and cleansing the mind, body and soul of an initiate in order to receive the divine art, it also underscores the gravity of his or her undertaking.

There are three main styles of Sri Lankan classical dance:
The Kandyan dances of the Hill Country, known as Uda Rata Natum;
The low country dances of the southern plains, known as Pahatha Rata Natum;
Sabaragamuwa dances, or Sabaragamuwa Natum.
Kandyan dance takes its name from Kandy, the last royal capital of Sri Lanka, which is situated about 120 kilometers from the modern capital at Colombo. This genre is today considered the classical dance of Sri Lanka. In Sanskrit terminology it is considered pure dance (nrtta); it features a highly developed system of tala (rhythm), provided by cymbals called thalampataa. There are five distinct types; the ves, naiyandi, uddekki, pantheru, and vannams.
The three classical dance forms differ in their styles of body-movements and gestures, in the costumes worn by the performers, and in the shape and size of the drums used to provide rhythmic sound patterns to accompany the dancing.
The drum used in Kandyan dancing is known as the Geta Bera, the drum in Ruhunu (low country) dancing as the Yak Bera, and drum in Sabaragamu dancing as the Davula (the word Bera or Bereya in Sinhale means Drum) The Geta Bera is beaten with the hands as is also Yak Bera, while the Davula is played with a stick on one side and with one hand on the other side; the Geta Bera has a body which tapers on both sides while the Yak Bera and the Davula both have cylindrical bodies.
The main distinguishing feature between Kandyan and Sabaragamu dancing, and Ruhunu dancing, is that Ruhunu dancers wear masks.
Ves dance
Ves dance, the most popular, originated from an ancient purification ritual, the Kohomba Yakuma or Kohomba Kankariya. The dance was propitiatory, never secular, and performed only by males. The elaborate ves costume, particularly the headgear, is considered sacred and is believed to belong to the deity Kohomba.
Only toward the end of the 19th century were ves dancers first invited to perform outside the precincts of the Kankariya Temple at the annual Kandy Perahera festival. Today the elaborately costumed ves dancer epitomizes Kandyan dance.
Naiyandi dance
Dancers in Naiyandi costume perform during the initial preparations of the Kohomba Kankariya festival, during the lighting of the lamps and the preparation of foods for the demons. The dancer wears a white cloth and white turban, beadwork decorations on his chest, a waistband, rows of beads around his neck, silver chains, brass shoulder plates, anklets, and jingles. This is a graceful dance, also performed in Maha Visnu (Vishnu) and Kataragama Devales temples on ceremonial occasions.
Uddekki dance
Uddekki is a very prestigious dance. Its name comes from the uddekki, a small lacquered hand drum in the shape of an hourglass, about seven and half inches (18 centimeters) high, believed to have been given to people by the gods. The two drumskins are believed to have been given by the god Iswara, and the sound by Visnu; the instrument is said to have been constructed according to the instructions of Sakra and was played in the heavenly palace of the gods. It is a very difficult instruments to play. The dancer sings as he plays, tightening the strings to obtain variations of pitch.
Pantheru dance
The pantheruwa is an instrument dedicated to the goddess Pattini. It resembles a tambourine (without the skin) and has small cymbals attached at intervals around its circumference. The dance is said to have originated in the days of Prince Siddhartha, who became Buddha. The gods were believed to use this instrument to celebrate victories in war, and Sinhala kings employed pantheru dancers to celebrate victories in the battlefield. The costume is similar to that of the uddekki dancer, but the pantheru dancer wears no beaded jacket and substitutes a silk handkerchief at the waist for the elaborate frills of the uddekki dancer.
