..as medicos, it was interesting to note for us that--till recent past, Sinhalese thought diseases are either caused by the natural or the supernatural factors. In the case of the natural, traditional Ayurvedic and/or medical avenues are pursued. In the case of the supernatural, or where the other systems fail, they have traditional rituals as the yakun natima.The yakun natima, or devil dance ritual of Sri Lanka, is full of drama. Identified predominantly by the symptoms manifested by the patient, the demons could be summoned and exorcised in the ritual mask dances..one of the characters, with a peculiar, but 'disease specific' mask is depicted in today's quiz..is he laughing or abusing or threatening or cursing or bestowing a fortune.... 'just not done' "is not right" clue! does that refer to a social standard? or a regulatory law? ..you've to unmask !!Doctored Cricket Quiz
