The procession
of Galungan And Kuningan - Continue
6. Galungan, Budha Keliwon Dungulan is the day to have fun, the
victory day after facing the 'test' mentally and physically from
Sang Bhuta Galungan or the victory of the Good (Dharma) upon Evil
(Adharma). On this day offerings are dedicated to the God and
the ancestors who come down to earth.
7. Umanis Galungan, Wrespathi Umanis Galungan
is the celebration day, and the Hindus can enjoy His blessings.
The offerings are replaced with new ones and art performance is
usually held and can be enjoyed by everyone.
8. Pahing Galungan, Sukra Pahing Dungulan, the
day when we are still in alert with pure heart.
9. Pamaridan Guru, Saniscara Pon Dungulan, is
the day when the God gives us prosperity. On this day, the Hindus
usually visit the temples (tirthayatra).
10. Ulihan, Redithe Wage Kuningan, is the day
when we commemorate the ancestors who has left us and continue
their duty to fight for the truth (dharma)
11. Pamacekan Agung, Soma Keliwon Kuningan, is
the day to pray for good will and the purity of the heart, because
pemacekan day comes from the word 'pacek', which means the middle,
i.e. the day between Galungan and Kuningan (5 days after Galungan
and 5 days before Kuningan). The Philosophy is we are in the middle
of the purity of the heart. On this day Segehan Agung offering
is placed in front of the main gate.

of Kuningan Day.
13. Pujawali Bhatara Wisnu, Budha Pahing Kuningan

of the universe.
