GREYCELL #66

Folklore traces "X" to the Lord Shiva who is said to have taught X to his son Murugan. While disguised as an old man, Murugan passed the knowledge of X to the sage Agastya who then recorded it and disseminated the skill among his students. X literally means "art of vital points". and is a component of traditional massage, medicine, and martial arts in which the body's pressure points are manipulated to heal or cause harm.Usually taught as an advanced aspect of unarmed Indian fighting systems, strikes are targeted at the nerves, veins, tendons, organs and bone joints. What is X?
