Galungan Celebration

Galungan is a Balinese Hindu holiday, which celebrates the victory of Dharma (good) over adharma (evil). This time 'round, Galungan day falls on May 30, 2018. As Galungan falls every 210 days, there are roughly 2 Galungan celebrations every calendar year. Throughout the day, temples are crowded with people coming and going, bringing intricate offerings and praying. Balinese Hindus believe that during the Galungan period, the deified ancestors of the family descend to their former homes. The current habitants have the responsibility to be hospitable to these spirits through prayers and offerings. Families who have ancestors that have not yet been cremated, but are still buried in the village cemetery, must present the offerings at the graves of the deceased. 
 
Although Galungan falls on a Wednesday, the celebration begins the day before, on a day that is called "Penampahan Galungan". On Penampahan Galungan day, people are busy preparing offerings and cooking for the next day, whilst the women of the household have been busy for days already, creating beautifully woven "Banten" (offerings made from young coconut leaves).  Outside all houses, you can find "Penjor", a long decorated bamboo pole installed by the side of the entrance to the family home.
 
The day after Galungan is "Manis Galungan", a day for everyone to visit their relatives and friends. If you happen to be in Bali during Galungan, do not miss the opportunity to witness and capture this unique celebration.
