Event Details

eringode, a village in Palakkad district, Kerala, India, has its steeped culture and heritage reflected in its numerous festivals and traditions. Peringode and Poomully mana are closely linked to the rich cultural heritage of Kerala. Poomully Mana is a renowned centre for Ayurvedic treatments, with a history spanning over 900 years. The family’s expertise in Ayurveda, Yoga, and Kalaripayattu (an ancient martial art) has been passed down through generations. A legendary figure in Ayurveda, Kalaripayattu, and other performing arts, Poomully Aaramthampuran earned the title “Arivinte Thampuran” (Lord of Knowledge). Peringode’s heritage is closely tied to Panchavadyam, a traditional Art form that’s a rhythmic ensemble of five instruments: timila, maddalam, ilathalam, edakka, and kombu. This pulsating temple art is an integral part of Kerala’s rich cultural landscape.
