Balinese Traditional Marriage Glance

Hindus have a purpose in life called the Artha Purusa Catur Dharma, Artha, Kama and Moksha. This can not be realized at once but gradually. Stages to achieve the four goals of life is called the Chess Hostel. At this stage of life goals Brahmacari priority boarding for Dharma. Boarding priority Grhasta realize artha and kama. While in Wanaprasta Boarding and Boarding Sanyasa prioritized goals to achieve moksa. Marriage or Wiwaha is an attempt to realize the purpose of life Grhasta Dormitory. Main tasks of ejection by Grhasta Boarding Parwa Agastya is to realize a life that is called "magic Kayika yatha Dharma" which means the ability to implement the Dharma itself. So a Grhasta should really be able to independently realize the Dharma in this life. Independence and professionalism is what should really be prepared by a Hindu who wanted to take marriage. In a marriage there are two goals that must be resolved by realizing that completely artha and kama are based on Dharma. In the preparation stage, a person who will enter the marriage in desperate need of guidance, especially to do with success or minimize the barriers that may arise. Guidance will be very good if given by an expert in the field of Hindu religion, especially concerning the duties and obligations of a grhastha, to be independent within the manifest destiny to get artha and kama based on Dharma. Purify Self Marriage is essentially a yadnya to provide an opportunity for fathers to incarnate again in order to improve his karma. Sarasamuscaya biblical verse 2 mentioned "Ri sarwa sakwehning bhuta, iking Janam gumaweakenikang wang authorities also asubha karma subha, subha ring worm panentasakena karma karma also ikang asubha dadi pahalaning wang" means: from this number all living creatures, who was born as a human that's all I can do good or bad. As for consolidation bad deeds into good deeds, it is useful to be human. Associated with the verse in the bag, karma only incarnate as a human being, karma can be improved to a perfect karma subha. Have children through marriage and keep it with real affection to a yadnya ancestors. Moreover if the child can be nurtured and educated to be human suputra, would constitute an act exceeding one hundred yadnya, as mentioned in Slokantara. Hindu marriage is a holy and sacred, and therefore the Vedic era, the marriage is determined by a sage, who can see clearly, beyond the spiritual vision, who will be married couples. With a view of an expert or a Brahmin Rishi Sista, fit or not fitting of a married couple will be seen clearly. Couples who do not fit (in spirit) is recommended to cancel his marriage plans, because it can definitely be fatal to both families involved. After days of Dharma Sastra, the couple no longer reconcilable by the sage, but by the king or brides parents, by considering the mundane, such as maintaining the dignity of the family, consideration of wealth, beauty, kegantengan and others. When this started declining spiritual values as a basis for consideration. In the modern era and the era of globalization, as now, the role of parents probably have not so dominant in determining mate sons. Young children more now determine their own soul mate. Penentuan jodoh oleh diri sendiri itu amat tergantuang pada kadar kemampuan mereka yang melakukan perkawinan. But it seems more determined by worldly considerations, such as physical beauty, the degree of family and social measures rather than the degree of economic and spiritual. Meaning and Symbol Marriage Law No. 1 th 1974, the validity of a marriage is legal according to their respective religions.

Arak Bali

Arak is a local drink in Bali. Made from the sap of palm trees can drink clear liquids neat, or mixed with sweet additives. One liter of wine will cost around 20,000 rp-30, 000rp in the shops in Bali. The name 'wine' is sometimes given the confusion about the origin and taste the drink. Countries such as Lebanon Middle Eastern drink called arak, made from anise. Origin of name Wine or araq (Arabic: IPA عرق [ʕaraq]) is a clear, colorless, unsweetened aniseed-distilled alcohol taste, produced in the eastern Mediterranean, Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, Palestine, Israel and Iraq. The word comes from Arabic araq عرق, which means "sweat" or "juice". Wine should not be confused with the same name liquor, wine. It is believed that the wine was developed by Christian and Jewish minorities of Islamic Middle East. Jabir ibn Hayyan, a Muslim alchemist of the early Islamic era, found the alembic, which facilitated the distillation of alcohol spirits, the name used in Lebanon is al karkeh or a little more formally al kattara. However, Muslims do not use the invention to produce alcoholic beverages since, in Islam, alcohol consumption is prohibited. Therefore, the invention is used to filter the perfume of flowers and to produce kohl, eye makeup woman where liquid black powder, then converted to steam and allowed to strengthen the back. The Arabs brought the art of distilling kohl to Spain from where the rest spread to Europe. In this Christian land, it takes a much different use: the production of alcoholic beverages. With the use of this method of producing hard spirits, the Arabic name "al-kohl", which became alcohol, was adopted because a similar method the Arabs used in manufacturing this cosmetic. The words in the English language arts-related refinery, in addition to alcohol, such as "alchemy", "alchemist", and "alembic" prove Arab origin was found in a lot of land west of intoxicants. Traditionally, wine is generally a local village or manufacturing, but in recent decades has been more and more produced in large factories. This has become the choice of people who enjoy alcoholic beverages in the Middle East, in competition with the many drinks imported from the West. SE Asia's wine connection Wine refers to spirits distilled particularly strong in the South and Southeast Asia from fermented fruits, grains, sugarcane, or the sap of coconut or palm trees other. The word itself comes from the Arabic word 'araq ", which means" juice ". The name is said to signify, in the East, each drink alcohol, but it is usually the name of this is wine. Generally fermented from coconut sap these days, and then distilled to produce alcoholic drinks that taste a bit like something between whiskey and rum. Originally from India, where he distilled from Kallu, Wine mainly produced in Sri Lanka. Generally distilled between 37% to 50% alcohol by volume (70-100 proof). Arak is traditionally taken directly or with water. Contemporarily was also frequently taken with ginger ale or club soda, or as a component of various cocktails. How wine enjoyed by tourists in Bali Here in Bali is spelled the word 'wine', the local population has no idea drinking again with the same name in other places. Two popular drink enjoyed by the west is the Arak Attack (wine and orange juice) and honey wine (wine, water, honey, with a wedge of lime). Honey wine that tastes like the 'poor man margarita', with a sour / sharp aspect. Arak is not one of the world's soft drink and when compared with the tequila, or distilled spirits other has a slightly raw characters. A honey wine may cost 8000 rp in Kuta shop, or 20,000 rp in a beach cafe. Nightclubs and lounge bars generally do not serve liquor because it is cheap booze. How wine is used by the Balinese Local Bali neat man will drink wine at a cockfight and ceremonies. In The Joy of Arak Madu, said "Usually it was poured from bottle to Tapan, a spoon made from banana leaves. The devotee or priest Tapan holds in his left hand and blew the heart of wine with his right hand, often use the flowers were held between the finger - finger for this purpose at the gods in a movement called ngayabang. Then, shifting to the right Tapan parties, wine poured on the ground as an offering to the spirits. The second act is called matabuh, which refers to the spilling of liquid on the ground as an offering to the spirits spirit-less. Arak used for this purpose is a very low quality. It is well kept for a drink. " Accidentally spilled wine on the ground in honor of Dewi Sri, the Goddess of rice. During the show averse averse in Denpasar and Kuta, the bearers will have some wine before starting out, the chance that floated over the audience. Wine will never win a prize, but part of Balinese culture and has helped many aong with adventure tourists.

Lake Batur

The origins of Batur area was the collapse of an ancient volcano. In more than 100 sq km caldera left from this disaster, a volcanic cone newly formed, namely Gunung Batur (Mount Batur, 1717m). Next to the mountains, a lake (Lake Batur) came into existence. The volcano is still active and the last eruption in 1999. Penelokan village located near the lake. There are stunning views from this lake and volcanoes. However, the point of view was packed only with the Indonesian people all trying to sell the same goods. We are the only tourists around at that time, so it was a horrible experience. Usually the Indonesian people leave you alone when you say no (no) several times, but the sellers here are very persistent. In the village Penelokan, you can find a beautiful temple Ulun Lake Batur. Apparently, the temple was saved by some volcanic eruptions. This is regarded as a message from the gods, of course, but for me it was more than one of the lucky stories. I've heard some of these stories, such as the church protected by the avalanche, or a mosque survived the earthquake. There are places like this around the world, in every culture. Dotted around the lake are some other great temples like the one in the picture. I do not remember his name, but it is a short journey from the village through a strange black lava landscape, witness to one of the Batur eruption. There was a small lake nearby, and does not interfere with the seller to find.
