about

Sugihan Bali

The Sugihan Bali ceremony is held the day after the Sugihan Jawa ceremony, five days before the Galungan ceremony. Its purpose is to purify the body of the so-called small world (Bhuana Alit) from evil intentions and thoughts.


As this day is for self-purification, no special rituals are held. The locals pray to the gods in temples or at home shrines and again bring offerings, which are usually larger than those brought on weekdays.


The day before the Sugihan Bali ceremony, the Sugihan Jawa ceremony is held.


The implementation of Sugihan Jawa i Bali among Hindus in Bali may vary in its traditions from region to region.


Sugihan Bali is celebrated once every 210 days (1 year according to the Balinese Pawukon calendar)
