He is the God, the Ruler of yoga and yogins; the real essence of the Brahmanical lineage; existing as the Representative of the Brahman, and as a God more supreme than the gods.
He has the guru as His form, He is the honourable Guru; the God Guru, the first Guru. He is the Eternal Siva, of great courage, the Base of all gods.
In brief, the ideology, legends, and ritual practices of the Brahmana caste highlight the ideals of superior ancestor-groups, merely elaborations of ordinary houseyards: (1) married-in women; (2) a sacred forebear whose nature is remanifested in the religious officiant plus consort; (3) ranks of descendants correlated to the mother's status; and (4) a localized temple which elevates its members above ordinary banjar and desa affairs. As a prototypical descent-group the Brahmana case is exemplary, and inferior groups can conform to diminished versions of its ideals. By now we can appreciate that to discuss marriage is to broach the issue of caste.

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.
