Balinese Cock Fighting / Blood Sacrifice Ceremony

Balinese Cockfighting is very famous in Bali, this is done by balinese people usually for a blood sacrifice for the temple ceremony. Cockfighting are a regular feature of temple ceremonies – a combination of sacrifices, sport and gambling. Men keep fighting cock as prized pets, carefully grooming and preparing them for their brief moment of glory or defeat. At the festival, the cock are matched, a lethally sharp metal spur is tied to one leg, there’s a crescendo of shouting and betting, the birds are pushed against each other to stir them up, then they’re released and the feathers fly.

It’s usually over in seconds- a slash of the spur and one rooster is down and dying. After the bout, the successful gamblers collect their pay-offs and the winning owner gets to take the dead rooster home for his cooking pot. When traveling in rural Bali, you will know there’s a cockfight nearby when you see scores of vehicles and scooters parked near a temple but nobody in sight. The men are usually backed behind the compound...............

Balinese Wedding / Nganten Ceremony

Balinese Wedding (Nganten) ceremony is belonging to the last Manusia Yadnya ceremony that most Balinese are likely to experience is that of marriage, Pawiwahan, less formally called Nganten.The most common form of marriage in Bali is elopement “Ngerorod or Melaib. The man and women arrange to meet somewhere out of sight of the girl’s parents and spend the night together at a friend’s house, with sufficient publicity that people find out what is going on.

Under these circumstances the girls can not return to her parents and resume her normal life. In almost all cases the girl’s parents are not in the least surprised. They pretend to be outraged at the impoliteness of the boy and his family for plotting the downfall of their daughter. But usually the whole thing is planned to avoid the very expensive ceremonies that would have to have been put on had the couple been married by the mutual consent of the two families...............

Balinese Tooth Filing / Metatah ceremony

Tooth Filing is belonging to the Manusa Yadnya (ceremony for humans). Called ‘Mapandes’ in High Balinese, ‘Metatah’ in Common Balinese. The reason for filing is to control evil human characteristics (Sad Ripu): greed, lust, anger, confusion, stupidity, jealousy, ill-will, and intoxication by either passion or drunkenness. This important life-cycle event usually occurs when a Balinese boy or girl reaches puberty-at a girl’s first menstruation, when a boy’s voice changes. If not then, it must definitely take place before marriage; sometimes Tooth Filing is incorporated into the marriage ceremony.

After Tooth Filing, a father’s duties to his female children are generally regarded as complete. Before a cremation the teeth of a cadaver may be filed. Why? Pointed teeth are likened to those of ferocious witches, demons, wild animals, savages, or, almost as bad, dogs. A person’s canine teeth, regarded by the Balinese as animalistic fangs (Caling), are filed flat so the child may become fully human, able to reign in the emotions.............
