Such dynamic potential in the dadia-kawitan principles represents, again,
the romance of Bali. This expansive phase of Balinese institutions is the
cultural counterpoint both to rigidly endogamous specialized locales once
supported by courts (for example, Tihingan) and to powerful court centers
themselves whose rulers stage Brahmana-backed rites asserting their own
intransigence, so to deny the importance Of their rivals and the significance
of their inferiors. As we shall see, in groups excited about their own expansion
and approximation of high-caste fort-as, group endogamous marriage, rather

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

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 |
