As I drove off he calle, After me "Now Nyonya will have good Dreams."

But would I?

I had wasted my morning and my taxi tour. True, the experience wouldn't be wasted. Never again would I buy anything in Bali.

Would you believe, I stuck with that resolve until three months later I returned to Bali. This time it was rain and not the shopping urge that sent me scampering into an art gallery.

If Shakespeare had been a jetsetter instead of an Avon side mud stepper, his most popular fantasy would undoubtedly be titled A Mid Bali Night's Dream.

In the mountains of Bali. night starts when the sinking sun streaks the sky with shafts of vermilion. It continues as the moon rises, bathing the sawahs in silver and transforming trees and temples into indigo silhouettes. As the shadows deepen, a spangle of fireflies come drifting through the garden, languidly trailing their flickering love beacons among the palm fronds.

Something stirs, and a night bird sounds the alarm silence settles, broken only by the muffled hoot of an owl calling his mate. A beautiful velvety silence that lasts until, as if on signal, the island slowly comes to life again.....

A geko, pink and transparent, darts from behind the carved frame of an oil painting, unfurls a trigger-quick tongue, traps a minute insect and silently retreats. Across the river a dog commences barking with that staccato frenzy only a Balinese anjing can achieve. In the distance a fighting cock crows lustily, with a defiant beat of wings - and on the horizon the first fingers of dawn stretch out to tint the slopes of Gunung Agung a delicate pink.

in Bali 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.
No contact is sought with the pirata, the dead who have not yet been cremated. Oil the contrary they are dangerous, Offerings must however be made for the redemption of their souls.
