Tri Hita Karana Awards

Proudly to announce that we have received our 4th Prestigious Emerald Medal of Tri Hita Karana Award in 2015.

Our sustainable program to be a resort with combining the 3 harmony philosophy make us deserve for this award for 4 times in a row. We always keep the harmony with the human being, with the environment/nature and also the religious harmony with God.

"Tri Hita Karana is a traditional philosophy for life on the island of Bali, Indonesia. The literal translation is roughly the "three causes of well-being" or "three reasons for prosperity."[1] The three causes referred to in the principle are harmony among people, harmony with God, and harmony with nature. Tri Hita Karana is credited for the island's prosperity as a whole, its relatively stable record of development, environmental practices, and the overall quality of life for its residents"

Piodalan Ceremony

Risata #Bali Resort & Spa held our Piodalan ceremony (Temple Anniversary) on 11 November 2015 at our front temple/merajan in the parking area near the lobby.

Piodalan is a religious ceremony that is related to the day of establishment of a temple according to the Balinese calendar calculations. The majority of Hindus in #Bali celebrate our local temple in every 210 days. This ceremony is held to show our grateful for the blessing we have received. So in the Piodalan ceremony we make a Banten, Gebogan and many other offerings.

After the ceremony, the offerings (some fruits and Balinese cake) will be enjoyed by the participants.

This ceremony is aim to ask for blessing and all best wishes to the continuation of all good things around us.
