Nyepi Self-Examination and Balance To Peace Achievement




Nyepi is a feast to mark the Hindu New Year celebration Caka. For the Balinese Nyepi is identical to the day when we did not leave the house, do not do any activity, total quiet and lonely day. At that time we had the opportunity to do a self-reflection, recalling anything we've ever done whether it's good or bad deeds. If you feel we are doing good, we ask what is useful to others or not. If we have done wrong, whether it is harmful to others or not. Here we do introspection / self back to the reflection or meditation.
