So we headed to the local Hot Spring-Batur Natural Hot Spring.We stopped by a few spots to snap some Nice photos of Volcano Batur and the surroundings.Kintamani doesn't look like or feel like in Bali.I'm like in Europe or New Zealand.Although I haven't been to Europe or New Zealand but it gave me this feeling.Soon we arrived at the Hot Spring.It is a nice place to chill while dipping or swimming in the Hot Spring Pool looking at the Beautiful Lake Batur.After the Hot Spring visit we headed to Bersakih.We were stopped by a local woman.Kara scrolled down the window.The woman offered to give us some blessings and prayers for the safety of driving on the road.Without us answering yes or no,the woman just started her prayers while sprinkling holly flower water around the car and sticked some rice on Kara's third eye (middle of the fore head).It's a sign of God bless,same goes to putting a flower on the ears.She walked towards my side and knocked on my window.I scrolled down the window and she asked me where am I from.I said Malaysia and she did some prayers for my safety in Bali and for tonight's flight back to Malaysia.She sticked some rice on my third eye and a flower on my left ear.I felt like I'm a Balinese woman.That's how I got my profile photo in Facebook and in my blog.It's my last day in Bali.I don't want to go home~~Kara paid some money to the woman and we left.
After 30minutes,we were stopped by a local woman again and she just started doing prayers without we saying yes or no.Kara is just so kind to allow them doing the prayers and pay them again.Kara said it's really great that we got 2 blessings today.He shared with me what his mom taught him.Kara said:"My mom taught me since I'm young,in life we just need to be Honest.Be honest to others and be honest to ourselves.We can be Happy and have a good life."What a powerful statement.I agree with this teaching.Honesty brings harmony and life can be simple.My point of view and through my own experience,1 of the reason I felt stressed up,depress,furious,etc in the past because I am not honest in facing what is going on in my life or not being honest towards people.I need to spend lot of time in creating a story to cover another story that is made up.So life became complicated and miserable.Now i choose to be honest and spend my energy in creating a meaningful,peaceful and happy life.^^
It took us an hour to reach Bersakih where the Mother Temple of Bali located.It is called the Mother Temple because it's the largest temple in Bali.It has a combination of lot of small temples.I bought a new scarf at the stall.It cost me 30,000rph which is RM10.I need to wear a sarong before entering the temple.(Tips:Please buy a sarong/scarf and you can use it again & again when you visit different temples in Bali.)While walking we reached a stop where we need to buy entree ticket.The man insist that I need a local Bersakih tour guide to enter the Mother temple or else I'll be stopped in the temple and need to leave the temple.There is a praying ceremony going on and only selected spots and temples in Mother Temple can be visit by tourist.My guides(guardian angel) told me just walk away and walk towards the Mother Temple.The man at the counter was very mad.One of the local tour guide followed us and offered to bring me up to the temple.He talked to Kara and Kara dealed with him.Kara told me to follow him and don't pay him.He'll pay the tour guide later on when I come back down to find him.I said yes and followed the tour guide.I saw the praying ceremony and tourist are only allowed to stand at the wall and look.I am not allowed to stay too long and I proceed to other areas of the temple.The energy in Mother Temple is very different from other temple that I've been in Bali.Strong and steady energy flow.I ask who am I going to work with in Mother Temple while climbing up the stairs.After a few steps,I stopped.I asked the local tour guide to stop as well and have a sit beside to have a rest.It's here.Lord Shiva's temple.I placed my crystals on the wall to charge the energy and do their energy exchange work.They exchanged the energy that they brought from Waterfall Git Git and bring in Mother Temple's energy.After they finished their work,we left the spot and found a little hut where we can have a sit and rest.This is not the highest spot in Mother Temple.My guides told me that there is a huge temple in the middle of Mother temple where it is not accessible by tourist or locals.That's the main energy power station of Mother temple.I ask my local tour guide is it true and he answered yes with surprise.He told me that deep inside there is an area where it's good for doing meditation.He suggested that I visit and do meditation there the next time I'm in Bali.Lord Shiva has messages for this tour guide.I downloaded and told him.We walked down Mother Temple to meet Kara.Kara have a chat with him and ask me to pay him 10,000rph(RM3.40).The counter below charge at a higher price than 10,000rph.
We left Mother Temple and headed to Goa Lawah(Bats Cave).I put on my sarong again before entering the temple and there was a praying ceremony going on as well.I saw alot of bats flying in the cave.How many bats are in the cave?I am not sure because it looks like thousands!After a few photo shots we walked across the road and took my Nasi Campur with Fish Satay lunch.Having local lunch with coconut drinnk,with local Balinese topics and facing the sea.Bonus:There were a lot of white Dandelion flying in the sky when the sea wind blows.Wow!It is really Beautiful!Kara showed me his wife and kids' photos.He invited me to stay at his house in Denpansar on my next visit.He said:"Although it is a tiny house but you are welcome to stay together with us."Oww..He is really a Nice guy.
We have some time left before heading to the airport.Kara drove around and tried a few streets in Kuta to find me a CD shop to buy a CD.I have a calling to buy a CD but it's not for myself.I bought a dolphin therapy CD.(true enough when I'm back in KL,the next day I found the CD's owner,which is 1 of my client.)When we were waiting for the traffic light to turn green.Kara gave away his remaining oranges to the 2 kids that are begging for food in the middle of the main road.He gave what he have to others that needs it more than he does.To me,Balinese are truly simple and easy going.Being with these people that I met in Bali,I can open up my heart and just be myself.I love them because of who they are.Kara dropped me at the airport,I felt so bad that I did not give him more tips.I've spent all my rupiah and the remaining 150,000rph is for the airport tax.I promised myself that I'll be back in Bali again and find my Balinese friends.
I love my life in Bali.Bali is a place that I'll choose to visit again and again in my life.Nice places to visit,a great place to stay,great culture and great people.I learnt to have Faith in God,Let Go and surrender to God's plan.I followed the flow and divine's guidance throughout the journey.I treasure all the beautiful people that I met,the important messages,precious learnings and wonderful experiences in these 9 days.Thank you God and My Guardian Angels that made this Fantastic trip happen for me.I gain a lot and learnt a lot about life and loving myself.I look forward for the next Spiritual trip-1 month in Europe!!Yuhoo!!!^^
