【 Authentic Balian Healing & Soul Reading 】 A Balian is a sacred traditional healer and spiritual master in Bali. Made famous by the movie "Eat Pray Love," Balians are an essential part of local life. They are more than just fortune-tellers; they are mediators between the human and spiritual worlds. A Balian can see invisible energy and "Auras" to find the root of your stress or life's challenges. Using ancient Balinese wisdom and a secret calendar, they read your destiny across three lives: your Past, Present, and Future. Whether you seek emotional healing, physical balance, or a clear path for your future, a session with a Balian offers a powerful message to help you reconnect with your true self.
【 Holy Water Purification Experience 】 We provide everything you need for the purification ceremony, including the ritual offerings, a traditional sarong, and a waist sash. Our driver-guide will explain the manners and guide you through the ritual step-by-step, so you can participate with confidence. All you need to bring is a white T-shirt and a change of clothes for after the ceremony.
【 Tirta Empul Temple 】 As Bali’s most famous "Holy Water Temple," this UNESCO World Heritage site features a grand, historical pool with many stone fountains. It is a majestic place where you can experience a traditional ritual that has continued for over a thousand years. This is the best choice for those who want to visit a world-renowned landmark.
【 Pura Dalem Pingit Sebatu Temple 】 This temple is a "hidden gem" located in a quiet forest valley. Unlike other temples with pools, here you experience the ritual under a sacred waterfall. It is much less crowded and offers a very peaceful, spiritual atmosphere for deep cleansing.
