Overview
About
The sacred jungle temple in Bali is a place of great spiritual significance, where the ancient ritual of the Purification Ceremony is performed by the High Priestess.
What you'll do
On this excursion, you'll not only discover the spirituality in the everyday life of the Balinese but also immerse yourself deeply in this faith during a blessing and purification ceremony called Melukat in Bali. You'll gain an introduction to Hinduism and Brahmin culture, which isn't usually given to foreigners. This is an important part of your experience, and you'll gain an insight into Balinese traditions. The Balinese priest (called Mangku) will prepare the ceremony especially for you with rice, flowers - different colors for each part of the ceremony—fragrant incense sticks, and holy water. All are carefully crafted for purification and blessing purposes. The purification and blessing ceremony is intended to refresh body and mind and provide space for new experiences. The impact on nature, the local people, and their way of life remains minimal; instead, you have the opportunity to engage intensively with them and thus make a contribution to the preservation of authentic village structures.
