Another Important Feast Day
August 7th, 2007
Having celebrated the grandiose Galungan and Kuningan festivity of which a “vibration” is perceived through Wednesday (1 August), the Hindus in Bali commemorate devoutly the Tumpek Krulut (Saturday, 11 August). This Tumpek Krulut, another important feast day specially dedicated for gamelan (Balinese traditional music) and other arts, will be celebrated by artists throughout Bali.
In the meantime, other devotees start to clean up their house compound from the attributive paraphernalia employed on the Galungan and Kuningan festivity on Wednesday (1 August). Obviously, on that day called Pegat Uwakan all penjors that have been installed are dismantled and cleaned up. Afterwards, all decorations of the penjor are set on fire (pralina) and the ashes are then buried within the courtyard of the sanctum such as at the area of their respective shrine and merajan or family temple.
