The part of a penjor

Very elaborate contemporary penjorbotton.

An elaborately designed base piece of a penjor masterpiece.

Every single thing hanging from or connected to the bamboo symbolises a gift from the land given by the gods and ancestors to the people of Bali.

Some are made of fruits and rice that grow above the ground (the pala gantung), and others that grow in the earth (the pala bungkah) are root vegetables like sweet potatoes and cassava. And each of these elements represents one of the important gods in the Balinese pantheon. The little rice cakes near the crown of the arch, for instance, represent Brahma, the god of creation, while the yellow and white cloth, the kober, symbolises Iswara, the god of the arts and sciences.

      ich bin auch immer wieder aufs Neue fasziniert, mit welcher Kunstfertigkeit die Balinesen diese Meisterstücke herstellen. Das hat sich hier seit Jahrhunderten in der ganzen Bevölkerung geprägt, Gruß Wolfgang
