Kajeng Kliwon Ceremony in Bali



Bali, the island of God is colored by many cultural ceremony that making this island become more interesting to be visited. Kajeng Kliwon Ceremony is one of the ceremony that celebrated regularly every 15 days. This ceremony is believed as the sacred day to conduct a physical and spiritual purification, to cleanse the mind, to supernaturally get rid of evil elements in residential environs through specified ceremony or to wipe out the pest from agricultural fields.   
 

At this day the Balinese Hindus meditate and pray at the temple with some offerings. Pray for God’s protection and also the gratefulness that always given to the human being and environmental. Some people also prefer to going to the certain temple to meditate or conduct ascetic practice to gain certain psychic power. 
 
As an expression of respect, in Kajeng Kliwon day the Balinese present the offering of segehan and tetabuhan arak berem (a kind of liquor) in the yards of their houses, entry door and other spots. Segehan is a special offering made of rice in five colours: red, black, white, yellow, and mixed colors, with salt, onion and ginger being laid on the top. All are arranged in a certain fashion and put on a plant leaf.

 
Segehan and its essentials are presented to the supernatural forces to avoid disturbance to the harmonious relationship of man with nature. The Kajeng KIiwon rite has been conducted for hundreds of years and has presumably contributed to the creation of Bali as a safe and comfortable haven. The belief that human life cannot be separated from universal rhythm has prompted Balinese to always observe Kajeng Kliwon rite.
