Theyyam is a famous ritual art form that originated in North Kerala which brings to life the great stories of our State. It encompasses dance, mime and music. It exalts the beliefs of the ancient tribals who gave a lot of importance to the worship of heroes and the spirits of their ancestors. The ceremonious dance is accompanied by the chorus of such musical instruments as Chenda, Elathalam, Kurumkuzal and Veekkuchenda. There are over 400 separate Theyyams, each with their own music, style and choreography. The most prominent among these are Raktha Chamundi Theyyam, Kari Chamundi Theyyam, Muchilottu Bhagavathi Theyyam, Wayanadu Kulaven Theyyam, Gulikan Theyyam and Pottan Theyyam.
The myth of Gulikan is that when Lord Shiva’s most devoted devotee -Markandeya clung to Shivalinga to save himself from
Yama- the God of death who threw Yamapasham (ropes of death) over him, Lord Shiva got extremely furious. In his extreme fury, the entire anger of Lord Shiva came out from his thumb and assumed a terrible form to kill Yama. This extremely frightening form- Gulikan is described as high as the Himalayas, as wide as Earth, as Round fiery eyes like coconut, teeth resembling chisel, hands as tough as anarecanut tree, legs as strong as coconut tree trunk. Seeing this extreme frightening form, Lord Indra and other gods fell at the feet of Gulikan and sought redemption for Yama as, without him, there won’t be death and without death, the creation will suffer. To appease him, Indra offered blood and after drinking it, the form got pacified as Lord Shiva and restored the life of Yama.
As the form appeared to kill the death (Yama) and protect devotees. people pray to this deity for long life, to ward off negative energies around them and seek divine protection.
