Metatah. A Beautiful Balinese Hindu Ceremony in South Tangerang, Indonesia

Balinese people in the Island of Bali has great tradition and ritual. Their culture is not only maintained on the island, but also outside Bali. Balinese Hindu tradition also can be found in Java Island and other places throughout Indonesia, even overseas. 

As one of the major religions in the world, Hinduism has universal teachings in which its adherents carry out their worship and traditions in accordance with local customs, traditions, and culture. It is not surprising that you will see that the diversity of arts and culture of Hindus in Bali or other countries is not the same as the Hindu tradition in India.

The Vedic scriptures never mention that Hindus outside India must follow the traditions and culture prevailing in India. What becomes a guideline for Hindus is to rely on the ethics and truths that exist in the Vedas and local wisdom that applies in every country wherever Hindus live in this world.
