Sanda

The major injury situation for the sanda males was attacking with a punch (66.7%) followed by attacking with a kick (33.3%).

Sanda is a sport art, basically kick-boxing with throws. It's generally about scoring points, there are few knock-outs.

Using methods of literature material, video observation and mathematical statistics, this paper analyzed sanda players' leg-applied technology.

Some of the Sanda skills were taken from external kung fu and were used in real fight.

The sanda is easily caught by a horse-hair noose placed over the opening of his burrow, which is always of uniform shape, and the exact size of what would be a mid-section of the reptile. The sanda is in great repute as a resotorative and aphrodisiac, and even high caste Hindus, such as Brahmans and Rajpats, boil them down into a strong soup.

Bhantus catch the sanda, or broad-tailed lizard, which dwells in rat-holes in the ground and lives always in fear of the cobra, in the following manner: — The Sansi sallies forth with a wooden mallet in one hand and a tuft of tough grass in the other. On his belly he wriggles up to the sanda's hole, rustling the tuft of grass with a noise which resembles the crackling of a snake's scales. The sanda comes up tail foremost, and blocks the orifice with his pachydermatous appendage. The Sansi then delivers a crushing blow with the mallet on the earth an inch or two on the inside of the sanda, closes the passage, cuts off retreat, extracts the lizard and stuffs it into his shirt.

A favourite prey species is the sanda or spiny-tailed lizard.

Vasubandhu at (II.1c) (and elsewhere in the Abhidharmakosa, see Note 13) draws a distinction between the sanda and the pandaka, which Yasomitra understands in the following way: pandakas are those individuals who have lost their indriya, that is, the masculinity or femininity principle, through some means (upakrama), whereas sanda is taken to apply to category 1, the congenitally impotent.
