The Balinese water purification Ceremony

Balinese Water Purification Ceremony

This experience provides a healing ritual and understanding to the magical mysteries of Balinese spirituality.

Water is believed by the Balinese to be one of the forces of life.

In our efforts to create this very unique spiritual experience, we have established a collaboration with a Holy Water Temple located in the outskirts of Ubud, that carries a mystifying and ancient energy.

Following the mantras, you will be invited to receive a holy water cleansing as this blessed water is sprinkled over your head.

You will then be guided into the sacred water pools where several Koi fish swim and live. Once you are emerged in the sacred pools, you have to bow down before each spring, putting your head under the stream of water.

First you will wash the holy water on your face as the symbol of physic purification, then over your fontanel as the purification of the tirtha.

Everybody always feels calm and happy after flushing away all impurities from one’s body, mind and soul.
