GUMI BANTEN : The ritual Plant Encyclopedias

Bali has never been devoid of religious ritual activities, from daily rituals called daily, to hundreds of years of rituals called eko dasa ludra, and even thousands of years when the mererebu bhumi ceremony was held. Hindu literature says that the series of rites is a form of preservation of the relationship between humans and God, humans with fellow human beings and humans with the natural environment commonly called tri hitha karana. One of the accessories needed in various ritual activities is derived from plants.
This book contains the names and descriptions of plants and their use in Hindi ritual activities in Bali. Information was obtained through research conducted in all traditional villages in Bali. The advantage of this book is that it contains information on the owner's equipment or the location of various types of upakara plants, so it is very helpful for the committee of works (rituals) to obtain the plants needed for the ritual, especially rare and difficult to obtain plants.
