Manage episode 348049602 series 3419996
Agama Tirta, the Religion of Water. This is what Balinese religion was often referred to before it’s official title of Hindu Dharma, as water was - and continues to be - an essential element in the rituals and even belief of the Balinese. Today’s episode is taken from one of Jean Couteau’s articles in the NOW! Bali archives, titled Balinese Pilgrims on the Quest for Holy Water. Read the full transcript here.
To get a better understanding of Agama Tirta, we strongly suggest that you listen to Episode 22 which outlines at a macro scale why belief was called 'the religion of water' in Bali. It showcases all ways in which Bali is important to the Balinese.
