BALINESE OFFERING
Try your hand at one of the sacred daily rituals of the Balinese people – the making of the Canang Sari. In the Kawi language, Canang Sari means beautiful purpose, and is the simplest form of household offering that is used daily in homes, offices, street corners and shop fronts to appease the spirits and thank the Gods.
On a woven mat, your host will guide you through the array of ingredients including palm leaves, colourful flowers, pandan leaves and wooden picks. Create your own square or circular design and fill them up with red, white, yellow and blue or purple flowers – each one a symbol of a Hindu God.
Complete your creation by placing Balinese coins or paper money at the top. This is a wonderful experience that will give you a deeper insight and understanding into the symbolism and beliefs of one of Bali’s most common cultural icons.
