A child born in
Bali awakens to a wondrous world of expectation. His father has Hong centered
his hove on having children, preferably a male child who will care him
in his old age and, after his death, perform the necessary rites to liberate
his soul for reincarnation. A new born baby is believed to have just emerged
into this life from a spiritual realm and is respected as holy the impure
earth and is carried every where, often riding on the hip of an older
sister. Ceremonies are held for him at prescribed intervals, culminating
in his first Balinese birthday at 210 day. Offerings are made by the priest
and he is allowed to touch the ground for the first time.

we must point out a very important distinction which the Balinese make between
two clearly separate groups of ancestors. The first of these groups consists
of the dead who are riot yet completely purified. This group is in turn subdivided
in pirata, those riot yet cremated, and pitara, those already cremated. The
former are still completely impure; the latter have been purified, but are still
considered as distinct, individual souls. The second group consists of the completely
purified ancestors who are considered as divine. Everything Bali Indonesia |
