Everyone should be able to see the video even if you dont have a facebook account.

What this niddar is talking about has never been referenced in the puranas or the vedas, as for vajramushti that was performed using knuckle dusters/nakhas and was part of a wider training involved in indian wrestling. How do i know this you ask, i have many friends in southern and middle india who are linked to wrestling akharras that still practice this sort of art basically vajramusti.

Yes i agree that karas were used in form of strikes to the body but not really as this niddar is explaining....sorry mr niddar singh for ruining your fun.

Firstly you accept that vajramusti existed, then you also accept that karas were used to strike the body, if the way Niddar Singh has shown is not the real way this combat was carried out, then please explain how it was done. Where in the video has Niddar Singh stated that vajramushti and lohmushti are reffered in the puranas or vedas?

Hi,

I have studied wing chun and what this Niddar is using is wing chun. He has re-packed it and re-named it Loh Mushti and added a kara in his hand! :6

Where he refers to the pertection of the beard, in wing chun and boxing its referred to as the center-line (regardless of having facial hair).

Plagerist. :o

Check the video link below and it is the most effective martial art around.

In the Akhara we have many students who have learnt or are learning other arts. Students from backgrounds with experience in Wing Chun, Muay Thai, Boxing, Kickboxing, Praying Mantis, Escrima etc All these students soon appreciate how different the Vidiya is from what they have learnt or seen before, surely the Wing Chun students who have done 10+ yrs training would come to the same conclusion as you? Ontop of that, the Vidiya has been demonstrated at a number of martial arts seminars where world class and top ranking instructors have appreciated the art and acknowledged that it is an unadulterated battlefield killing art.

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
