The Lukat Geni Tradition, Before Nyepi Day On The Island Of Bali, Indonesia.
Balinese youths engage in a fire fight using dried coconut leaves in the Lukat Geni tradition at Paksebali Village, on March 18, 2026, in Klungkung Regency, Bali, Indonesia. This tradition takes place on the eve of Pengerupukan, before Nyepi. The practice of self-purification with fire is believed to ward off disaster, cleanse physical and spiritual impurities, and neutralize negative energy. Nyepi, observed on March 18, is 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.
