Sanathana is the sanskrit word means ancient. Ancient weapons are more famous in this Martial Arts.
These arts are not only just individual short distance combats but also explains about long distance attacks.
India is very famous for many ancient Martial Arts, only few like Karalipayattu, Kusti, Karrasamu are popular. Even a normal Indian do not know the real martial art of his own territory. Most of the martial arts involve at advance level attacking on the nervous system of the body. This method is called as Marma kala , Varmam, Nokku Varmam etc..

Lord Krishna in Mahabharata used the Sudarshana Chakra , very powerful Chakra attacks and re-position itself.This Chakra is mentioned as the great Weapon of this Universe.

The utilisation of this Weapon took more importance in the Sikh Army.

The combats in the Sanathana Sastra Vidya of Sikh Army is so strange looks like a father of modern boxing movements.This martial art is so similar to the techniques of Taichi and Winchun power diversion techniques.
