Tawur Kesanga Ritual Ahead Nyepi Celebration
Residents are watching as Balinese Hindus parade the Ogoh-ogoh during the Tawur Kesanga ritual at Parahyangan Agung Pasundan Temple in Bekasi Regency, West Java, on March 10, 2024. In the Tawur Kesanga ritual, Balinese Hindus are performing worship and parading Ogoh-ogoh, effigies that represent demons or bad traits, which will then be burned as a symbol of the victory of goodness. The Tawur Kesanga ritual is the final series of rituals ahead of Nyepi, or the Balinese Day of Silence, which this year will be celebrated on March 11. (Photo by Aditya Irawan/NurPhoto)
