Ped Village, Sampalan, Nusa Penida, Badung Regency, Bali
One of Bali's holy kahyangan temples located near the coastal
town of Toyapakeh on the island of Nusa Penida, Pura Dalem Penataran Ped is
considered to be a place with magical powers on an island already thought to be
angker (haunted). It is to this Pura that
the Hindu devotees travel from all over the island to make offerings to the
fanged demon Jero Gede Mecaling in order to protect themselves from illness and
ward of the evil.
Pura Dalem Penataran Ped is a temple to honor God as creator of Purusa and Pradana. Purusa is the soul spirit, which brings life to nature. Pradana is the physical power that shows Purusa’s power. Hindu people pray to Pura Dalem Penataran Ped to attain a life that is balanced both, spiritually and physically, because, according to them, a spiritual and physical balance can only create harmony.
