අප ජීවත් වන්නේ ඉතා වේගයෙන් ඉදිරියට යන ලෝකයකයි. මෙම අදිවේගි සමාජය නවීන තාක්ෂණය නිසා තවදුරටත් සංකීර්ණ වූ ගෝලීය සමාජයක් බවට පරිවර්ථනය වෙමින් පවතිනවා. මෙවන් වූ යුගයක කිසිම ජාතියක හෝ සමාජ කොට්ඨාෂයක අනන්යතාවය පවත්වාගැනීම විශාල අභියොගයක්. මේ සංකීර්ණ සමාජය තුල විදේශගත වූ ශ්රී ලාංකිකයන් වන අප සුලගට අසු වූ තණපලයක් සේ සංස්කෘතික, සමාජ අගයන් හා සිරිත් විරිත් කුනාටුවක අතරමං වී ඇත්දැයි සාධාරණ සැකයක් මතු වේ. මෙම ශ්රී ලාංකික සංස්කෘතිය, පාරම්පරික සමාජ අගයන්, සිරිත් විරිත් හා අනන්යතාවය පවත්වාගෙන යාම වැදගත් කර සලකන විදේශගත වූ ශ්රී ලාංකිකයන් ඒ සදහා නොනවතින අරගලයක නිරත වී සිටී. මෙවන් වූ සමාජයක හනමිටි කාරයෙකු නොවී, ශ්රි ලංකාවටම අනන්ය සංස්කෘතිය, සම්ප්රදායික කලාව, ඉතිහාසය හා සිරිත් විරිත් මතු පරපුරට ගෙනයීම ලෙහෙසි පහසු ව්යාපාරයක් නොවේ. "මණ්ඩප ශ්රී ලාංකික සංසදය" එම කර්ථව්යයට උරදීමට කැප වූ සහර්දයන්ගේ එකමුතුවකි.
Angampora – An Art, A lifestyle and a Fighting technique
Dandubasnaamaanya has created a renewed interest in ancient Sri Lankan Sri Lankan marshal art technique called angampora. It is nice to see that there is some concentrated effort in the country to revitalise this ancient art and take it forward to the next generation. Following text is from a wonderfully done website of angampora.org
“Anga” in the native tongue is body and “Pora” signified combat ( Singhala is the native language of the Sinhalese who are the majority in the country ). Body combat also unarmed combat, was called Angampora as only the human body parts were used to fight.
Main parts in Angampora are
- Gataputttu ( Locks and grips)
- Pora Harammba (Offense and defense techniques)
- Maru Kala (Nerve point attacks)
Gataputtu
Gataputtu
is the techniques that Angam fighter using to weak, kill or disarm the enemy. To placing gataputtu on enemy Angam fighter use his body parts like hands, legs, head..ect..ect. Angam discpile must learn how to place gataputtu on opponent and also he must learn how to redeem from
gataputtu if some one place gataputtu on him. Without using proper redeem techniques its impossible to redeem from gataputtu. Gataputtu is a
major part of Angampora and it has very big pool of techniques. Machmore detailed information can be read at http://angampora.org/technique/unarmed-combat/

In the grand scheme of things you actually get an A+ for hard work. Exactly where you lost us was in your specifics. As as the maxim goes, the devil is in the details… And it could not be more correct at this point. Having said that, allow me reveal to you precisely what did give good results. Your authoring is actually pretty powerful and that is probably why I am taking an effort to opine. I do not really make it a regular habit of doing that. Secondly, although I can easily notice a leaps in reason you make, I am not really certain of just how you seem to connect your points that help to make your final result. For right now I will, no doubt yield to your issue but hope in the future you actually link your facts better.
