Melasti Ceremony Before Nyepi Day For Hindus On The Island Of Bali, Indonesia.
Hundreds of Hindus gather to hold a Melasti ceremony at Segara Sanur beach on March 16, 2026, in Bali, Indonesia. The ceremony involves purifying and cleansing participants and sacred objects from temples, washing away spiritual and natural impurities in a sacred spring. It takes place before Nyepi, a day of silence during which people are 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.
