TETADA Kalimasada PDF
The art of Kalimasada was brought to the Indonesian Island of Java more than 5
centuries ago by the early Hindu settlers. Earliest known materials indicate that skilled
practitioners of kalimasada were well known for their martial prowess. The art uses a
unique technique of chanelling ones inner energy as well as his environment to
maintain ones physical well being and enhance his martial skills. Due to the potential of
the art being used for destruction rather than for good, the teachings and practice of
kalimasada have been kept secret and known only to a few families, passed on from
generation to generation through the centuries.
Almost a decade ago, the present Grand Master, IR. Eddy Surohadi, deemed mankind
was now ready to be given this art . Under his watch, he wanted to emphasize the
healing and passive nature of the art rather than the martial side. In September 1991,
he founded the Institute Terapi Tenaga Dalam (Institute for the Development of Inner
Energy Cultivation and Therapy). He added the word TETADA (acronym for the
institute ), thus forming what the practice is currently called : TETADA KALIMASADA.
The Institute, headed Master IDA SUROHADI M.D.- wife of the Grandmaster, has
established a research and development team, consisting of over a dozen medical
specialists in Indonesia and Europe. Their primary objective is to constantly improve the
teaching methods of Tetada Kalimasada in the light of current medical and scientific
advances.
As of November 2001, Tetada Kalimasada has over 100,000 students and practitioners
worldwide.
What are the basic principles and objectives of Tetada Kalimasada?
Tetada Kalimasada operates on the basic principle that man is composed of matter and
energy. Each body has seven major energy points or chakras located along the main
nervous system - from the base to the crown. These energy points are storehouses and
transmitters of universal energy - they interact with the electro-magnetic energy field
and transform these into energy that sustains our lives. The chakras are often
associated with the endocrine gland system and each chakra is closely connected with
the functions of particular organs. The tetada kalimasada exercises or movements
performed during practice are intended to stimulate and open these chakras so that
they can receive and transmit more energy effectively. With this, specific parts of the
human organs are enhanced, making them healthier.
What are the objectives of Tetada Kalimasada?
The objectives of Tetada Kalimasada are:
To train oneself to develop ones inner energy abilities to attain holistic well being
To heal oneself and others
female (urinary tract, ovaries, uterus, prostrate) and the lower abdominal organs (large
and small intestines, colon)
SPLEEN/ SOLAR CHAKRA (located above the navel, below the chest): This chakra is
connected with the functions of the upper abdominal organs (stomach, liver, gall
bladder, spleen, kidneys, pancreas)
HEART CHAKRA (located at the center of the chest): This chakra is connected with the
functions of the heart (cholesterol, high blood pressure), lungs, emotions.
THROAT CHAKRA (located at the base of the larynx): This chakra is connected with
the functions of the thyroid glands; ability to communicate, balance self esteem,
inspiration and self-expression. This is the first of the upper chakras which merges an
individuals consciousness with GOD.
BROW CHAKRA (located at the center of the forehead, between the eyebrows): This
chakra is connected with the functions of the pituitary gland (controls other glands
including the thyroid and adrenal through the hormones it produces). It is better known
as the third eye (psychic or clairvoyant ability)
CROWN CHAKRA (located at the top of the head): this chakra unifies the body and
mind with the spirit, thus stimulating the highest expression of the human spirit. It is also
known as the chakra of pure intuition, seeing the larger purpose in our lives, attitudes,
faith, values, ethics, courage and humanitarianism.
What are the key components of Tetada Kalimasada?
There are five key components in the practice of Tetada Kalimasada:
Triangular Diaphragmatic Breathing (Duduk Nafas)
Movements and Steps (Jurus)
Alpha Concentration
Progressive Relaxation (Tafakur)
Energy Synchronization
The combination of these 5 techniques stimulates and increases the energy in the 7
main energy centers/chakras. The more energy you have in the chakras the healthier
the organs.
BRIEF EXPLANATIONS ON KEY COMPONENTS OF TETADA KALIMASADA
juruses - as these are the basic movements, all levels are required to perform
these during every practice session.
Alpha Concentration : Term used to describe a very relaxed consciousness
wherein one can cultivate abilities such as healing, hypersense, and
rejuvenation.
Energy Synchronization : this takes place when the Masters deem a member is
ready to move on to the next level. The bio-electrical vibrations created by each
major energy point or chakra during the training period will be interconnected by
the master to form a continuous bio-electrical flow of energy throughout the body.
This is also the secret art of fine tuning the bio-electricity generated within the
body at the alpha frequency level to make the refined energy effective for
healing. This act can only be performed by a Master.
Can one learn Tetada kalimasada on a self taught basis - assuming one also has
knowlwedge in other inner energy disciplines? Or can one get acceleration
through the levels if one knows other martial arts disciplines?
The ability to practice Tetada Kalimasada correctly is transferred to members only by
trained and authorized instructors under programmed guidance. It cannot be learned by
reading this material alone nor referring to any existing references. Any idea or
techniques mentioned in this material is not meant to be an independent guide to
private practice. (Read explanation on energy synchronization)
We require a minimum of 18 sessions for a practitioner to finish one level. It is
recommended a twice a week practice session because the body must have time to
absorb the energy that has been generated in a session - this is one aspect that must
not and cannot be rushed.
I am interested to learn about tetada kalimasadas healing or curative aspects
since I am past middle age. Can you tell me more?

Lowers high blood pressure
Alleviates emphysema
Strengthens kidney functions
Stabilizes early stages of cancer and tumors
Controls anxiety attacks
Improves concentration
Increases creativity
Is there evidence that this bio electric/inner energy exists?
Shown below are some fotos/videos of applications of the inner energy that a
practitioner develops:
Here, a practitioner is doing the fire walking exercise - the practitioner is able to project
his inner energy so that it shields him from the flames.
This picture shows a practitioner being lifted on a sheet of ordinary newspaper - the
inner energy has been projected on the sheet of paper so it does not tear under the
weight of a full grown adult.
This one shows a practitioner stepping on a flourescent lamp that has been energized note that like the newspaper the lamp does not break under the weight of the man.
