Balinese Calendar System

Seminyak Tour Driver by Putu Martika the Seminyak Bali Driver is back again with continuing the Odalan period time as the Balinese Calendar System , as mention to my post on Ceremony in Bali as Hindu Ceremony well is according the Balinese calendar, and how is Balinese Calendar ?

Here is the detail i can explain you now . Most of people know about two kinds of calendar system : 1. Solar system Calendar and the 2. Lunar system calendar. The solar system mostly used internationally, is based on how many days the Earth rotates around the sun . So one year has an average 365 days. The lunar system is used in some asian countries, is based on the time taken by the moon to rotatearound the Earth; which is 29 days +12 hours + 44 minutes so that equation times 12 equals 1 year for the lunar system.

Where Bali uses yet another calendar system. Bali uses the Wuku system based on the week. There are 30 weeks in one cycle ( Balinese Oton ) two oton is one year. So one Oton is mean 210 days so one year in Balinese Calendar system is mean 420 days.

The Balinese calendar system is used mainly for religious purposes such as : to know the auspicious days for farmingand raising animals,starting a bussines,determining the date temple ceremonies,and making a birthsday ceremonies ( Otonan) and other ceremony as Hindu in Bali.

Above a alittle bit about balinese calendar i can tell you and for more info please send  me any of your inquiries to seminyakdriver@gmail.com or skype me at seminyakbalidriver or whatapps at 082 236 087 680 or call me directly at 082 236 087 680

And what is the ceremony call in the temple and how long is beaing the ceremony from the begin till it finish the ceremony. That is the commont question that i hear from my customer or even other customer from other guide that missing to understand that what is ceremony in the temple.

Ok let we start, here we are !

Its eassy to find a temple ceremony if you interest to see it or even joined where is ussually local Balinesse people in the village willing to welcome a visitor to join and help the ritual of course, the ceremony in the Temple we can see or find it on every village in Bali island and the ceremony it self is called ODALAN , the Odalan is a celebration of the first day when the Temple was built. Some Odalan is on shorten period, lasting from 1 to 3 days celebration only, while others can last for up to a month. After the main religius ritual is finished , odalan become more social occasion, with dance,music balinesse intrument what we called Gambelan,drama of Bali,comedy,and shadow puppet plays.

When is odalan ? Since Bali has its calendar system for religious purposes, wich cycle 210 days and each temple celebrates their odalan or ceremony  Every 210 days, its no wonder that is possible for one to see an odalan ceremony of hindu temple in Bali on every day .
