ᝰ THE STORY
A Balinese man walks through the village, carrying a sokasi in his hand—a handcrafted bag woven from bamboo—on the sacred day of Galungan. Rooted in the Old Javanese word win, meaning "victory," Galungan marks the triumph of Dharma over Adharma, the eternal battle of good over evil. To the Balinese, it is the most important day of the year, a time when ancestral spirits return to their former homes, welcomed with prayers, offerings, and deep reverence.
Across the island, families prepare their homes and temples with intricate offerings, ensuring their ancestors feel honored and entertained. The beauty of canang sari, the delicate floral tributes placed on shrines, the striking presence of penjor—tall, gracefully arched bamboo poles adorned with offerings lining the roads—and the enchanting sounds of gamelan all serve a purpose beyond mere spectacle. These traditions are not simply for the delight of visitors seeking colorful exoticism; they are essential in keeping the spirits from growing restless and departing too soon.
Among Bali’s many villages, Penglipuran transforms into a vision of harmony during this sacred time. Its perfectly aligned penjor, standing tall along the entranceway, create a scene unlike any other, a striking testament to the island’s living traditions. In this fleeting yet profound moment, Magic Offerings II captures the spirit of devotion—a world where prayers rise with the fragrant smoke of incense, and the balance between the seen and unseen is delicately upheld.
