Melasti Ceremony Before Nyepi Day For Hindus On The Island Of Bali, Indonesia.

A Balinese woman is in a trance during a Melasti ceremony at Petitenget Beach on the island of Bali, Indonesia, on March 16, 2026. The ceremony purifies and cleanses oneself and sacred objects from temples, washing away spiritual and natural impurities in a sacred spring. It is held before Nyepi, a day of silence during which everyone is prohibited from leaving their homes, working, and lighting fires or lamps for 24 hours, dedicated to silence, self-control, self-reflection, meditation, and introspection to achieve inner balance and harmony.
