You who are spending the holidays in Bali within this two-week time are very fortunate. Throughout these two weeks, you can easily observe numerous feast days that are widely celebrated in Bali. Moreover, they range from grandiose to unique. For instance, on Saturday 14 April is Sarasvati Day that is specially celebrated as the genesis of learning. On the following day, Sunday (15/4), you can witness thousands of Hindu devotees in Bali bathing at the beach, river, lake or waterspout. On that day, they are performing self-purification, either in the manner of sekala (visible) or niskala (spiritual). That day is called Banyu Pinaruh.
Several days later, Wednesday (18/4) is celebrated as Pagerwesi Day. For Balinese communities residing in Northern Bali (Singaraja city and its surroundings), it becomes an exceptional day. They believe if they worship on that day they will attain peace on that day. Many dwellers of Singaraja visit local graveyards to pay homage to those that have passed away and are trying to find serenity in their afterlife.
