Feast of Nyepi in Bali

 Nyepi is the most special day for a Hindu nation, for those of you who have not yet know the history I gave the following information is taken from the wikipedia: 

Hari Raya Nyepi is the feast day people celebrated the Hindu New Saka each year. Today's fall in the count Tilem Kesanga (IX), which is believed to be the day cleaning gods who are in the center of the ocean water Amerta bring the essence of life. To make the people worship the Hindu holy to them. 

Goals and a series of celebration 

The main objective Hari Raya Nyepi is to invoke the god before God, to cleanse Buwana Alit (human nature) and Buwana Agung (the universe). Hari Raya Nyepi is a part of a larger celebration. The following details. 

Tawur (Pecaruan), Pengrupukan, and Melasti 

A day before Nyepi, namely the "panglong ping 14 sasih kesanga", the people carrying Hindu ceremony at the crossroad blind Yadnya roads and houses respectively, by taking one of the types of caru (such sesajian) according to their ability. Blind Yadnya that each named Panca SATA (small), Panca miss (are), and Tawur Agung (big). Tawur pecaruan or own a cleaning / pemarisuda blind Kala, and all leteh (lewdness) expected sirna all. Caru is implemented in each house consists of foreign rice (five) color totaling 9 duel / pauknya package with side dish, such as chicken brumbun (colorful), along with wine tetabuhan / palm wine. Yadnya this is blind to the blind King, blind and Batara Kala Kala, to apply so that they do not disturb people. 

Mecaru followed by a ceremony pengerupukan, the spread-nyebar Tawur rice, torch-obori house and all the yards, menyemburi house and yard with the magazine, and hitting objects any (usually kentongan) to have a voice loud / boisterous. This stage is done to drive blind from the environment at home, yard, and the surrounding environment. In Bali, pengrupukan usually dimeriahkan with the parade of Ogoh-Ogoh is a manifestation of blind at the diarak of mobile environment, and then burned. The goal is to expel the same blind Kala from the environment around. 

Melasti stage is the last one, that is all leteh away the (dirt) to the sea, and cleanse pretima. The ceremony is conducted in the sea, because the sea is considered as a source of Amerta. At the latest on Tilem afternoon, Melasti must be completed. 

Nyepi 

The next day, namely the panglong ping 15 (or Tilem Kesanga), tibalah Hari Raya Nyepi indeed. On this day fasting done Nyepi, which is called "Chess Brata" Penyepian and consists of the observed geni (no berapi-api/tidak and use of or fire), observed the paper (not working), observed lelungan (not travel), and observed lelanguan ( do not listen to the entertainment). Brata done this since before sunrise. According to the Hindu nation, everything that is a transition, always preceded with a dark omen. For example, a baby who will move into children (1 oton / 6 months), is realized with the symbol 'matekep guwungan' (closed cage of chicken). Women who move from childhood to adult (Ngeraja Sewala), preceded by ritual ngekep (dipingit). Thus for the new, adopted a new birth, which is really starting a new page with a white net. To start life in the Caka / new year also, this base is used, so there is time geni observed. 

Summary of omen-born omen that (observed geni), according to the palm "Sundari Gama" is "memutihbersihkan bosom," which is an obligation for the Hindu nation. 

Each person berilmu (the wruhing tattwa jñana) conduct Brata (repression carnality), yoga (connect people paramatma with (God), asceticism (exercise endurance suffering), and samadi (be united to God, the goal is eventually born spiritual sanctity). 

All that is a requirement for people to have a Hindu spiritual readiness to face the challenges of life in the new year. Habits celebrate the feast of the town, dice, drunk-mabukan habit is something wrong and must be changed. 

Ngembak Geni (Ngembak Fire) 

The last series of New Year celebrations Saka Ngembak Geni is the day that falls on a date "ping YouTube (1) sasih kedasa (X)". On the day this is the Saka New Year begins. Hindu nation with a history of family and neighbors, sorry forgive each other (ksama) of each other. With the new atmosphere, new life will begin with a clean white. So, if BC year ended 31 December each year and the new starting January 1, the Caka year ending in "panglong ping limolas (15) sasih kedasa (X)", and the new year begins on 1 sasih kedasa (X).
