KERALA INDIA HOLIDAYS |
![]() ![]() |
Kerala
is on the southernmost tip of India. Kerala, the land of Ayurveda
Kerala's equable climate, natural abundance of forests (with a wealth of
herbs and medicinal plants), and the cool monsoon season (June -
November) are best suited for Ayurveda's curative and restorative
packages. |
This
ritual offering to Goddess Kaali is performed in many places of South
Malabar. A troupe of dancers dress up as Kaali (the Thira) and the
accompanying spirits (the Poothams) who were created along with the goddess
for the destruction of the evil demon, Daarikan. The Thira wear masks while
the spirits don semi-circular wooden crowns. The dance is performed from
house to house and on the premises of village shrines between November and
May every year. ![]() ![]() |
