On this excursion, you will not only discover the spirituality in the everyday life of the Balinese, but also immerse yourself deeply in this faith during a blessing and purification ceremony - called Melukat in Bali. An introduction to Hinduism and Brahmin culture, which isn´t usually given to foreigners, is an important part of your experience and you will gain an insight into Balinese traditions.
The Balinese priest (called Mangku) prepared the ceremony especially for you with rice, flowers - different colours for each part of the ceremony, fragrant incense sticks and holy water. All are carefully crafted for purification and blessing purposes.
The cleaning and blessing ceremony is intended to refresh body and mind and provide space for new experiences. The impact on nature, the local people and their way of life remains minimal, instead you´ve the opportunity to engage intensively with them and thus make a contribution to the preservation of authentic village structures.
