The significance of water in Bali cannot be understated. In this episode we seek to illustrate the many ways in which water is part of life on the island and why it is such a central element in Balinese belief.
You'll learn why Bali's belief system was called 'Agama Tirta', religion of holy water, before it was officially called 'Balinese Hinduism'. From the cycles of reincarnation, to the cult of fertility, self purification and cleansing of the world, water is present throughout life and even after death.
