personalities to collect some data. For the conclusion, the renaissance of the intellectual
movement of India was an urban activity directly or indirectly focused on the task of
building and reconstructing proud nation. Socio , economic, cultural and political
reformations had took place with the activities of the social associations and their impact
to social reformations, pressure they put forward towards the Indian National Movement
revealed through it.
Introduction
The nineteenth century in Indian and Sri Lankan history witnessed the emergence
of many intellectual currents for national regeneration in almost all sphere of life
be it social, religious cultural economic on political. However, one cannot deny
the fact that socio-religious – cultural reforms formed the major plank of the
nineteenth century Indian intellectual movement. In the forgoing pages an attempt
has already been made to portray the basic features of the civil reform movements
during the nineteenth century and the subsequent impact of theseon individuals
towards bringing about simultaneouslypolitical consciousness among the general
masses of the countries of India and Sri Lanka. It is equally significant to point out
the criticism and condemnation the founding fathers of movement received at the
hands of orthodoxy and conservatives who never desired any change or tinkering
with the established social and religious norms to the extent of ostracization and
banishment from the social and religious groups. The conservatives were opposed
to any change in the Hindu religion and social customs, for they looked upon them
as hallowed by ancient tradition and enjoyed by sacred books. The attacks of the
missionaries and others only confirmed them in their resolve to preserve them
intact. They argued that their religious practices were divinely ordained and
possessed deep spiritual significance, however ugly their features might appear
33 | P a g e
outwardly. The Conservatives made all efforts and resisted all attempts of the
reformers.4
Although it is true that all classes were affected by the establishment of British
hegemony over India and Sri Lanka, however, the changes in different strata of
society were not the same nor in different parts of India and Sri Lanka. And so far
on the civil reform movements were concerned, these did not lead to any drastic or
radical change in the social customs and or religious attitudes and these could in
no way be considered as mass movements in view of the fact that general masses
could not be brought under its influence. The masses were invariably illiterate and
the intellectual currents of the time left them largely untouched.
Landholder’s society
The purpose of all the civil reform organizations was to work for the material
prosperity and the social advancement of people at large. The intellectual
awakening was not necessarily related to religion but had social orientation, this is
the season issues of social concern rather than religion gained pre - eminence in
the programme of reformers throughout the 19th Century. Again, evaluating the
issue of Zamindar is not in any way a digression from the main of social concern.
As landholders‟ society in India, „Zamindars‟ is the most important and powerful
indigenous social class. The word „Zamindars‟ is derived initially from the Persian
„Zamin‟, i.e. Earth or „Land‟and the suffix „dar‟ means „holders‟. It means
„Landowners‟.5 In the Indian society there had been a great influence from the
landholders‟ society. There was a growing influence from the landholders to the
British-Indian Society in England with whom there had been an alliance. This
situation created some inconvenience among certain sections of Anglo-Indians in
India. As the landholders‟ society had a great power in the Indian society, they had
a link with the Indian local administration. Therefore, they enjoyed the

administrative power in society since medieval times. „The Friend of India‟ had
understood this very clearly and warned the government of the danger. What is
most likely to arise against the metropolis and to give other parts of the country
same recognition to the privileges and the advantages that the metropolis
enjoyed. They were enjoying a general education system with the medium of
vernacular languages.
As aforesaid landholders, were a prominent lot in Colonial India, their system was
a way of ensuring the collection of taxes from peasants. As the landholders were
the leaders of Indian society they were the representatives and spokesmen for the
rulers to some extent. The landlords‟ society automatically became the agents or
the means of the public grievances that must be taken to the authority because they
were the only well-organized indigenous political body in Bengal at that time.
Some of the Calcutta landlords that led the public were leaders having liberal
thoughts. Though they did not seem as good Zamindars, their education and
contacts had broadened their outlook and widened their sympathies. They were
very anxious of disproving the accusation that some Anglo-Indian cities were
already being busy to make. The society represented was only a particular selfish
6
Friends of India, 5 December 1839; An organization of Zamindars the landholders were typically the
hereditary aristocrats and had an enormous ownership of land and held the control over their peasants
from whom the landholders had the right to collect tax for especially military purposes. Very often
they were the Indian princes who lost their sovereignty with the invasion of British rulers. During the
Mughal Empire, Zamindars were titled as nobles and belonged to the ruling class. The truth was that
the Zamindars‟ rights had originated in several different ways. They were descendants of officials to
whom in lieu of a salary the emperor had given the right to collect the king‟s share of the tax.
However, most of the representations made to the government and the solutions received with much
attention were on questions affecting the interests of landholders. They did not work as a narrow
minded and self-interested group. It never claimed any privilege for its constituents but took up several
concerns on the welfare of the public on a large scale. They stressed the need for the use of Bengali in
the courts, the reduction of stamp duties, the granting of subsistence to the witnesses in criminal suits
and the emigration of Coolies to Mauritius.

one.7 For this, a very close and active association of many Britons, especially the
lawyers, joined hands with the Landholders‟ society to ensure the liberal character
of it.
In view of wide spread illiteracy in the country there were certain individuals and
organizations that played a crucial role in creating consciousness among the
masses towards social advancement and prosperity. Thus apart from the
Landholders Society, the British India Society played a vital role in the sector of
social welfare. When we view the work of British India Society, it is noticed that it
didn‟t confine its attention completely to administrative and political issues. It had
an open and detailed investigation into the condition of the „Raiyats‟8 in lower
Bengal. Before being made public, a printed questionnaire was sent to those who
were responsible in the „Mosfussil‟.9 Then the information presented by the latter
along with the suggestion of remedial measures was examined and analyzed by a
sub-committee of the society. The accord of the teachers in the government
schools in Bengal and of the „Ticca‟10 bearers in Calcutta was the cynosure of the
society advocating the cause of the masses as well as technical and female
education. Not only that, it also raised its voice against the prevailing practices of
„Kulin‟polygamy and the constant widowhood among the Hindus. The majority of
the society had favoured to have a legislative action to put down such evil
practices. Meanwhile, a section of Anglo-Indian press never had a kind look at the
Bengal British India Society. As a result of this the government had grabbed some
of the prominent figures away from the society and they had been appointed as

“Ryot (alternates: raiyat) was a general economic term used throughout India for peasant cultivators
but with variations in different provinces. While Zamindars were landlords, Raiyats were tenants and
cultivators, and served as hired labour.”

deputy magistrates.11 The older and more conservative leaders of the Indian
society in Calcutta would like to have aloofness from the society. The inquiry led
by the society into the situation of the „Raiyats‟ in lower Bengal could not have
made it popular with the landholders. The view of the rational thinkers among
members of the society deeply concerned the education of the girls and the
remarriage of the widows.
11
Between 1843 and 1846 at least three members of the Society Chandrasekhar Deb. Shivachandra Deb
and Kishorichandra Mitra were appointed deputy magistrates. On 13 February 1845 the friends of
India noted that the „exaggerated statements and inflammatory address of Young Bengal had died into
an echo‟ and remarked that „a few Deputy Magistracies, judiciously bestowed, will doubtless prevent
their revival‟.

the petition they accused that no sufficient amount of money had been allocated
for education and that the education of the public had still been neglected by the
authority. The petition seriously proposed that the need for widely spreading the
education all over the society through the medium of their own tongue must be
done while demanding for the establishment of a University for each province.
The petition of British India society was against the maintenance of the
establishment of Bombay Association Christian churches in India going beyond
the general revenues of the country.14
Bombay Association
The Bombay Association in its petition as the British India Society had made a
complaint about the coastal areas of the British administration in India. The
petition said that the higher salary paid to British officials should be cut off. The
weak point of Haileybury system was to the exclusion of Indians from higher
employment. They demanded the abolition of the prevailing civil and judicial
system. The petition read that the time for giving the Indians a much larger share
in the administrative body of their country had arrived. Lords
Ellenborough,15Elphinstone16 and others17 had suggested that the councils of the
local governments should be open for matter of general policy and legislation so
as to enable natives of India to take part in the discussions of matters of general
importance for the country.

making roads, bridges, tanks and other works of public utility. It was proved that
„all the improvements sought for or in the power of your Honorable House to
make, are only secondary in importance in comparison with the necessity of
introducing a complete system of education for the public‟. Therefore, it
recommended an increased expenditure for educational purposes and the
establishment of a university in each presidency.18 By the petition of Bombay
Association it was asked from the Parliament to limit the period of existence of
any future government of India to ten years so that the interest of so many people
may be more frequently brought under the consideration of Parliament.

Indian Association
The prevalent Indian Association was one of the most dedicated associations that
worked for the reformation of the Indian society. It was the association that
presented the idea of holding an annual conference of all the associations in India
which worked for gaining a complete and meaningful independence to India. This
idea of an annual conference of representatives of various types of associations in
India had been attracting the attention of the Indian public for a long time. Led by
the Hindus of Madras there had been a reawakening of the project of a national
fund. Annual conferences of selected members from all over the country were
held. These annual meetings would have had the priceless effect of harmonizing
the local feelings, spreading of the public spirit and motivating the native public in
backward provinces intoaction with the gained experience and the knowledge21 of
the advanced.
Once A.M. Bose had issued a letter to the prominent figures of the public and to
the association saying for holding of a conference on 29th and 30th of December,
1883 on the Christmas week at Calcutta would prove to be a great success. It is
because many visitors would arrive at the station from various parts of the country
and then the discussion on the questions could be initiated there. Then very
important views could be taken into account. The conference held,was a grand one
with the welcoming speech made by A.M. Bose who pointed out the importance
of holding such conferences in the future too. Prominent attention was paid for
dispatching Indian youths abroad for industrial education. On the second day, the
talk was on simultaneous holding of the examination of civil service in India as
well as in Britain on a fixed day for both countries. The age limit should be twenty
two and the appointment must be done after an intelligence test. Apart from the
above talks very important questions were taken into consideration and the

meeting was over on the third day. The judicial matters, the raising of a national
fund, the repealing of Army Act etc. were among the topics of the talks.22
Similarly, Poona Sarvajanik Sabah was also involved in the social welfare
activities of the oppressed Indian masses. The leaders of the Sabah they were
demanding the introduction of the social welfare facilities from the British
Government. These were the government gazette in which all the bills,
regulations and acts were published, circulars and rules that were in force or might
come into force, the passing of such bills acts, and regulations essential for the
welfare of the people, the supervision of the municipalities, the management of
devathians(religious endowments) and such matters relevant for the public
welfare. It was prohibited to the Sabha by its own constitution to take part in
religious disputes, private matters and clashes. For the expenses of the
continuation of duties of the Sabah each member had to pay one day‟s income
annually.23An elected committee had to manage the work of the Sabah.The
meeting of all the constituents of the Sabah was to be held annually.
During the first two years the Sabah had talks on various subjects mostly of local
importance.24The members were to represent such matters as recovering the costs
in revenue cases, reduction of liquor shops in Poona, the management of the
Parwati temple‟s endowment, the responsibility of fund contributed by the Deccan
chief in honour of the visit of the Duke of Edinburgh for the establishment of law
class in Poona, etc. They were to inquire into matters like conflicts between
European soldiers and Indians, formulating of regulations for maintaining relations
between Indian Chiefs and their subjects and the Indian chiefs and the British

of the people and the Government26 in 1872 and in 1876 by organizing a famine
relief movement.

as the latter believed it had no sanction in original scriptures.AryaSamaj was not
corrupted claimed by Arya leaders by the European culture and AryaSamaj was
much powerful to keep up the self-respect and the spirit of the Indian culture while
some Hindus were forgetting their religion and losing their identity. Thewas
powerful enough to restore the rightful position of the Vedic Dharma and showed
to the world that it was the fountain of righteousness.28
The main reasons for the degradation of Hinduism were the practice of caste
system and untouchability. By the name of religion they had accepted these
practices over thousands of years. Swami Dayanand, out of the many reformers
and great people who had strongly spoken against these practices, was the first
person who tried to have these practices completely erased with the help of Vedas.
He pointed out that According to the Vedas every person was the child of God and
there could be no differences as high caste or low caste.29Dayanand said that the
Vedic class system of society (Varna System) and the caste system had nothing in
similar. He strongly objected and totally rejected the discrimination of persons on
the grounds of caste, creed, language and colour. In the Hindu society the
disgusting practice of untouchability was more harmful than the caste system.
Dayanand fought against the evil practice of untouchability as well. The
movement of Swami Dayanand paved the way for Mahatma Gandhi to fight
against the untouchability30in later years.
The leaders of reformation laid too much of stress on acquiring education. They
were of the opinion that it was not birth, status or material comforts but education
on scientific lines that would bring about revolutionary changes in society and
would widen his/her intellectual horizon. The spiritual development of a person
was dependent on the system of the education given to him or her. Not only that,
the building of the future generation was also dependent on the principles of

education and the educational system of a country. The westernized thinking had
changed the whole principles of human society today. Swami Dayanand wanted to
change this thinking and said that all should develop spiritual knowledge. 31 To
gain this, he highlighted the importance of the practice of celibacy
(Brahmacharya), self-discipline and meditation as the basics. Based on these
thinking his followers started educational institutions in India.
There was a strict rule that women and low caste people must not be given any
education. It is because there was a belief that women and persons of low caste
had no right to education. They did not have any chance of learning Sanskrit or
reading books and if they were caught doing so, they were punished. Then
Dayanand expressed that it was the human right of all persons including women to
be educated in all areas of learning and the way for them to learn the teachings of
the Vedic religious books should be open.32
In order to buttress his views Dyanand tried to seek the support of scriptures for
reforms. The scriptures had been reinterpreted only to legitimize and justify the
ideas and reform he advocated.
Brahma Samaj
Raja Rammohan Roy (1772-1833) was the first and the best representative of this
new spirit of rational inquiry into the basis of religion and society. He challenged
the current religious beliefs and social practices of the Hindus as not being in
consonance with their own scriptures. He tried to show that the belief in
multiplicity of gods and worship of images, which formed the essence of the
current and popular Hindu religion, was opposed to the teaching of the Vedas.
What really mattered was his open and public protest against the blind acceptance
of whatever was considered as acceptable on the authority of priesthood or its

interpretation of scriptures. The standard of revolt thus rose by him against the
medieval tyranny of dogmas unleashed force which created what might be called
Modern India, and made him worthy to rank by the side of Bacon and Luther. 33He
brought forth the matter of abolition of Sati, the burning of the widow with the
dead body of her husband. The agitation had been going on for some time and he
himself was the key soul of it. He wrote pamphlets in order to prove that this
inhuman rite was not approved by the Hindu scriptures. But when the Governor
General, Lord William Bentinck, decided against overwhelming opposition to pass
legislation abolishing the Sati rite, Rammohan did not support him nor did he
approve of his action. He preferred a steady pursuit of persuasive methods to any
sudden change by legislation. He expressed the opinion that the practice might be
suppressed quietly and in an unobserved manner by increasing the difficulties to
perform it and by the indirect agency of the Police. 34 On the other hand, Keshab
who was a member of Brahma Samaj induced the Government to pass the Native
Marriage Act popularly known as the Civil Marriage Act in 1872 for legalizing
marriages which were not valid according to the Hindu law.
Under the inspiration and leadership of Keshab Chandra Sen, the Brahma Samaj
launched a comprehensive programme of social reform which formed a vital
aspect of Indian renaissance. Some ideas among these may be from the Indian
Reform Association which was founded by Keshab on his return from England in
1870. The program of the Association was carried out in five sections. They were:
The purpose of reformation was to provide anhonorable place to the women who
had suffered untold miseries at the hands of male dominated Indian history. Thus
the concern of these intellectuals was towards female education which seems to be

the root of all reform at least among the Hindus. The female education was also
considered a way for social advancement. As pointed out a significant contribution
of the intellectuals lay in the realm of female education. There had been an ever
increasing number in female schools which itself indicates the onset of the trend of
women emerging out of social seclusion imposed upon them. Female education
was no longer deemed dangerous by the increasing number of people. The fact can
also not be ignored that there was a stiff opposition against the female education
from conservatives and orthodox sections of people belonging to both the Hindu
and the Muslims community.
Prarthana Samaj
The PrarthanaSamaj followed a more moderate policy in social reform under the
leadership of MahadaveGovindaRanade. He said, “We do not want to break up
with the past and cease all connection with our society. We do not desire to give
up our hold on the old established institutions”. He said he would abandon his
society because it tolerates what seemed to them to be great evil” The result was
that the members of the PrarthanaSamaj remained within the pale of Hinduism.
But they rendered yeoman service by the organization of social reform movement
under the guidance of M.G. Ranade who was the leading member of the Samaj.36
Many English educated people who did not belong to it had fully imbibed the
rational and liberal spirit of the age and became ardent reformers of social reform.
They were inspired by small groups of Englishmen in India who were eager to
remove some of the most shocking and brutal social practices in India like the Sati
which was later on abolished under legislation.
The cruel practice, which disgraced the name of the Hindu, was that of killing a
girl almost immediately after her birth. Although the practice was declared illegal
in 1705 and 1804, the difficulty of detecting this criminal practice carried out in

utmost privacy baffled all efforts to check it. It was not till the middle of the 19th
century that strenuous exertions of the British officials backed by a general
awakening of a rational spirit among the Indians through English education bore
fruit and the crime steadily declined in the second half of the nineteenth century.37
The issue of legislation versus elevation of popular morals as the main instrument
of social reforms divided Rammohan Roy and Keshab Chandra Sen, continued to
agitate and divide the Hindu society for the next fifty years, and both sides could
count on eminent men as their supporters. The question came to the fore again
when Brahma Malabari sought to secure legislation against child marriage and a
Bill was introduced, raising the age of consent from 10 years to 12. There was a
strong protest by Tilak and many other eminent men, but the Act was passed in
1891.39

Conclusion
The renaissance of the intellectual movement in India and Sri Lanka invariably
was an urban phenomenon. The leaders of the movements by and large hailed
from urban centers thus these ideas of reformation as a result of which originated
and operated in urban centers resultantly a thin slice of population came under its
influence. The majority of the population belonging to rural areas remained
altogether uninfluenced by such reformative ideas. True that the reformative tenets
remained confined to certain urban pockets, a few leaders however with their
broad vision and intellectual capacity desired to extend its influence to many
regions and the country as a whole.
The ideas and activities of the intellectuals of the renaissance movements were
directly or indirectly related to the task of building and reconstructing of a nation
to which they could be proud of. Thus the social and religious reform movements
were not an isolated phenomenon but were loaded with wider national, political
and economic considerations. As already pointed out in case of the struggle for
independence, many kinds of social reforms had taken place along with cultural
and religious movements against the British imperialism in India. For this, the
national and public consciousness or the awareness of Indian masses became
much powerful to bring the movement to the forefront.

desired goals. The leaders, who were the pioneers of the national movement,
therefore had to launch initially the reformations in the social and religious sectors
later on brought in its ambit economic and political sectors of India. As a result,
the Movement for the Indian Independence was definitely a mass-based one
representing all the strata of the Indian society. The movement had to deal with a
series of constant ideological evolutions. It was not only an evolution of anti-
colonial nature but also a struggle of overcoming the barriers for freedom in
politics, economics and social environment.

Originated Stages of Sabaragamuwa Dance
It is necessary to investigate the originated stages of Sabaragamuwa dance styles in
studying and examing the educational methods of the Sabaragamuwa dance. There are
seven originated styles in this dance systems as follows.
1. Sabaragamuwa dance, which originated with faiths and beliefs of prehistoric era.
2. Sabaragamuwa dance, originated with customs of Buddhist culture in the second
century before Christ.
3. The traditional dance drumming of this, which began with customs of Buddhist of
both giants, Pussadewa and Mahasoona in period of king Dutugemunu.
4. This tradition, which began with creed of goddess Paththini in tradition of King
Gajabhuka , Gamini between first and second centuries
5. Sabaragamuwa dance, which originated with customs of temple of gods in
Sabaragamuwa province, such as,
i. the dance related to customs of main temples of god of Saman in Rathnapura. It
is Maha Saman Dewalaya.
There is a basic data foundation in above mentioned dancing traditions such as,
archeological manuscripts, copper manuscripts, various metal manuscripts and metal
ornaments and also in old scrolls written on Thal leaves and traditional dancing
equipments. The study of origin of rituals and the spreading of them is a vast area. The
literature on curative healing rituals is considered a unique place. So a broad study
should be done on this area. The metal instruments come by the tradition, these
instruments are no more popular, Styles of playing and drumming exercises, drumming
alphabet should be studied thoroughly.

The literature of curative healing rituals
When studying this Sabaragamuwa dance tradition the fields such as, various
pattern of curative healing rituals, patterns of mental treatments, various kinds of
medicine and applying and production of various native medicines should be studied
deeply.
In this deep study the culture of the way of lives of old traditional artists, customs
and traditions, the healthy life style and food can be considered as main source of
reference in this research, we must pay attention to the threats that arise in keeping the
lives of the tribute to protect the generations of their tribe, various methods of hygiene,
architectural arts, customs and traditions related to agricultural and way of life come by
the tradition. The physical appearance of artists, their origin, and the anatomy of the
artists should be considered more important and necessary for this study.
The areas we must pay more attention in the Sabaragamuwa dance tradition are the basic
exercises that can be done to make a good dancer, singing patterns, drumming patterns
and learning by heart of its literature.
When studying the origin of the Sabaragamu dance tradition, the seventh stage of
the above mentioned stages can be considered more important. In that stage we study
various diseases, misfortunes and the treatments we perform to Overcome these ill omens
and about these rituals of devils, rituals of gods and rituals of planetary are studied briefly

over to the generation to generation. The education system is that connected to the
dancing system is thoroughly based on aesthetic education system.
According to professor Herbert Reed when the aesthetic education is developed the
good qualities or ethics of the humans can be change positively. Most educationists
throughout the world agree that the universal truth of giving aesthetic education to an
individual is to develop his or her affective domain positively. The aesthetic education
will help to nourish the brain as well as the heart. The good and positive qualities are
inculcate in the individuals when studying aesthetics education. According to the well-
known writer Leo Tolstoy the art can hinder the bad and violence and cruel behavior of
human. The positive impact educational goals we achieve by learning aesthetic education
can be listed as the team spirit, Sharing, Caring, honesty, intonation to learning and
equality. We will now investigate further that how far the theories of Benjamin Bloom
are consist of in the old traditional learning. The process of Sabaragamuwa dancing
according to the theories of Bloom the cognitive domain, the affective domain and the
psycho motor domain all help to develop the knowledge. In order to get a complete
education on in one field or in more fields we shall be able to decide the suitability of the
field. Affective domain helps the individual to appreciate what he or she has learnt from
a calm and stress free mind. The impression we gain by positive and stress free mind will
lead to better way of thinking that gives more and more benefits. The process can be seen
very well in the Sabaragamuwa dance tradition it is described as follows.
Cognitive domain
With beginning ancient dance teaching the traditional dancing artist of ancient
generations teach their children and pupils about good manners and good behavioral
patterns. Among them we can list the respect to parents and teachers, good behavioral
patterns when having meals, Good hygiene habits, the public relationship with others and
mutual understanding. First of all the knowledge of rhythms are given with the singing.
This process is started at the age of eight. These children learn various singing patterns,
various rhythms, physical exercises, legend learning by heart, costume designing and
creation meaningful decorations related to the healing rituals, sculpture and paintings,
knowledge is given to them in practical and theory forms.
Affective Domain
When gaining the knowledge of the above mentioned fields the individuals are
benefitted with a lot of good behavioral patterns such as respect for others, respect for
other religions, kind and refined, retained individuals, flexible and with good imaginative
power.This leads to balanced personalities with positive concepts.
Psychomotor domain
54 | P a g e
When a child is grown up with all the above mentioned good concepts,the experience
and the knowledge he receives are unbeatable. This results good and well educated
consummate artist with creativity and imaginative power.According to these facts we can
mention here that the cognitive, Affective and Psychomotor domains in Benjamin
Bloom’s taxonomy are based in the ancient traditional teaching methods of
Sabaragamuwa dance tradition.
Lets have a look in deep about Benjamin Bloom's Theorotical educational classification.
In 1956 Bloom has proved that the basic theories are knowledge, comprehension,
application, analysis, synthesis and evaluation. This theories have been revised in 2001.
They are as follows. Remember, understand, apply, analysis, evaluate and creation etc.
The educationists all over the world have considered that this method of education goes
from simple to complexity and it is the way to a very successful education system. Let's
consider how this methodology applies to the Sabaragamu dance tradition which has a
history of more than 2000 years. When we analyse ''knowledge'' first of all, we can
mention that how the basic teaching method and theories given from the ''Gurugedara''
are included their. The main purpose of entering the child in to '' Gurugedara'' to learn the
various rituals connected to the dance tradition so the child has to follow basic customs,
Such as
1. The first day of enrolling the child has to offer the Sri Lankan traditional food to
the teacher.
2. Next, Wershipping the teacher by offering sheaf of betels with teachers fee known
as ''Guru Panduru'' in Sinhala.
3. The Same day in the auspicious time the teacher takes the initicial steps to teach
literature to the apprentice. During this day the poems of Buddhism called
''Buddha Gaddiya'' is chanted to enhance the literacy leved of the child. The
''Buddha Gaddya'' is a booklet consist of the two languages ''Pali and Sanskrit"
The Child will have to learn the poems of this book by heart. Fourty one poems
are included in this book. While learning the basic rhythmic movements of
dancing the child has to memorise all the fourty one poems in the '' Buddha
Gaddya''. Some poems are mentioned below.

In addition to this the child has to learn some books like Nammpotha, Magul Lakuna,
Ganadevi hella, Vadankavi potha, Sakas kadaya, Hithopadeeshaya. While studying the
above mentioned literature the child receives the pirivena education called education
system of ancient temples. The child learns the same series of books in the ''Pirivena''
(Old school of temple) also. This above system of education helps the child in great deal
to in doing the ''Yaga'' called complex of rituals. In this deep study we can prove that this
pattern of pirivena education has a great influence in the generation of ''Yaga'' in ancient
Sri Lanka.
While receiving the education in ''Gurugedara'' the child has to master another series of
books as follows. Those books come under the category of literature of curative healing
rituals in Sabaragamu dance tradition.
57 | P a g e
11. Vannam poems - 21

If the child wish to get further education from '' Gurugedara'' he has to do a deep study on
the other two patterns of ''Yaga'' called ''Yakk Tovil'' and ''Deva Tovil'', ''Yakk Tovil'' are
done to get rid of Suffering brought by the ill omens and ''Deva Tovil'' are done to get the
blessings of various gods. While doing the above studies the child will get the
opportunities to participate in ''Yaga''. So he reserves great experience of study of rituals
practically. The child can assimilate first-hand experience when participating in this
''Yaga'' with his Master known as "Gurunnanse". The Child reserves the education from
''Gurugedara'' for eight years at the end he will end go as a matured and knowledgeable
person in this field. We can consider this education he reserves at the end is from both
