Highlights
Join a sacred water purification ritual (melukat) at a hidden Balinese holy spring. This deeply spiritual experience is guided by a local priest who leads you through a series of cleansing steps using natural spring water believed to remove negative energy and emotional burdens. The ritual takes place in a serene temple surrounded by lush nature, offering peace and reflection. As you move from fountain to fountain, you'll engage in silent prayer and release what no longer serves you. Perfect for those seeking clarity, renewal, or a deeper connection with Balinese culture. This is more than a ritual—it’s a personal journey toward inner balance.

Itinerary
At the center are balians—respected spiritual healers believed to have intuitive gifts and a sacred connection to the unseen world. Acting as both mediums and medicine men, they diagnose imbalances through ritual, trance, or divine insight. Healing sessions may involve prayer, mantras, offerings, herbal remedies, and sacred objects like talismans or stones. Some balians enter altered states to receive guidance or channel energy. Rather than addressing symptoms alone, this healing focuses on restoring harmony between the individual, their ancestors, and nature. For many, a session with a balian is not only therapeutic but also a transformative encounter with Bali’s spiritual heritage.
Conducted at natural holy springs, such as those found at Pura Mengening in Gianyar, this ritual is considered a powerful form of spiritual and emotional healing. Participants, often guided by a priest (pemangku), enter the temple grounds with offerings and prayers, then step into the sacred pools where they bathe under flowing fountains of spring water. Each fountain is believed to have a specific spiritual purpose—ranging from clearing negative energy to bringing clarity and emotional release. Melukat is not only performed by locals but also increasingly by visitors seeking a deeper, more meaningful experience in Bali. The ritual is often preceded by meditation or prayer and may be done in silence to allow for reflection. The goal is to restore inner balance, cleanse past burdens, and realign with nature and spirit. Pura Mengening, with its lush surroundings and serene atmosphere, offers one of the most authentic and tranquil settings for this profound ritual.

About Ubud
Ubud is Bali's cultural heart, a town of temples, craft villages and dance set among rice terraces and river gorges in the island's green uplands.
The town centres on the Ubud Palace and the busy market opposite, with traditional dance performed in temple courtyards in the evenings. Saraswati Temple's lotus ponds sit just off the main road, and the Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary shelters long-tailed macaques among moss-covered shrines and giant banyan trees.
Top-ranked sights in Ubud: Tegalalang Rice Terrace (Sawah Terasering Tegalalang), Tegenungan Waterfall (Air Terjun Tegenungan), Tirta Empul Temple (Pura Tirta Empul).
