Alimin (1932 – 2004) Rejang Dance from Bungaya, 1974 “The rejang is a ceremonial dance performed by young women in honor of the visiting deities. Most villages have their own versions which are not formally learned but imitated since the movements tend to be fairly simple and repetitive. The costume tends to be rather uniform but quite elaborate and shows of the beauty of the dancers. In the mountain village of Bungaya in Karangasen, East Bali, unmarried girls hold each other’s yellow sashes to form a huge open circle. Their elaborate circular hairdressers and other body cloths are similar, but their inner skirts are of different colors and patterns.”

For, to the Balinese, it is only through the cremation of the body that the soul can be released from this temporary vessel to reach the afterlife. And, in order to do so, the correct rites and rituals must be followed, especially when it concerns those of royal lineage. For, at death, the body must be consumed by fire for the soul to return to its five constituent elements known as the panca maha bhita (earth, wind, fire, water and ether) in order to speed it to the afterlife. In the final ceremony, called the nyagara-gunung ceremony, the family expresses thanks to the gods of the oceans and the mountain temples, and the deified soul is enshrined in the temple, awaiting its next reincarnation or release from the cycle of rebirth.
