- Combat Arts of the Akali Nihang Singh Khalsa
-
The traditional battlefield combat art called Shastar Vidiya was the Combat Arts of the Akali Nihang Singh Khalsa.
Sanatan Sikh Shastar Vidiya is the secret Indian battlefield art of the traditional Sikh warriors, the Akali Nihang Singh Khalsa Sikhs of North India (Punjab).
In addition, the Sikh 'Sanatan' concepts of spirituality also spread accordingly and even now, many religious beliefs and practices within Asia can be traced back to India in some form or another.
The brutal and deadly Sikh Shastar Vidiya was banned under British rule after fear of Sikh violence against the rule. Now for the first time in history, in order to revive the true ancient martial heritage and associated practices, this combat system known as 'Shastar Vidiya' is being revealed to the world at large, even within India by a Niddar Singh Nihang.
