Leusii Reusi Dat Ton: The Thai Hermit’s Exercises ~
“Reusi Dat Ton is a little known aspect of traditional Thai healing and culture.
It consists of breathing exercises, self-massage, dynamic exercises, poses, mantras, visualization, and meditation.
“Reusi” in Thai, from the Sanskrit Rishi, is an Ascetic Yogi or Hermit.
“Dat” means to stretch, adjust, or train.
“Ton” is a classifier used for a Reusi and also means oneself.
So “Reusi Dat Ton” means the Hermit’s or Yogi’s self-stretching or self-adjusting exercises.
Reusis were also known as “Jatila,” “Yogi,” and “Chee Prai.”
