M0NKEY BUSINESS The fact that there are two Monkey Forests in Bali occasionally causes confusion, although they are some distance apart and vastly differen in character. The "big" Monkey Forest at Sangeh boasts of two rival packs of nimble and aggressive monkeys who have a low tolerance to tourists and regard them merely as the local version of meals on wheels. More enthusiasm is generated if the tourist is carrying a camera or handbag which can be snatched out of an unsuspecting hand, to reappear seconds later dangled tauntingly from the top of a tall tree. By comparison, the
inhabitants of the "little" Monkey Forest on the outskirts of
Ubud, while being conspicuously lacking in haloes, are less exhuberant,
contenting themselves with filching the odd cob of corn from a visitor's
pocket. Most times they can by Legend neglects to mention which Forest he came from, but we have it on good authority that he was more than a little disenchanted with his lifestyle. Exactly why, he couldn't rightly tell. But when he heard his grandpappy waffling on about the "good old days", he reflected uneasily that to date he had not even one adventure worth telling to his grandkids.

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 |
