There was a procession with many men dressed in white jackets and yellow sarongs. In the middle of the procession were 4 men who were dressed differently. They seemed to be wearing "coats" made of straw. Around their necks they had wide collars studded with small mirrors.They held white Hoods over their heads and walked under canopies. Women, at the side of the road, fell to their knees as if in prayer, when they passed. Any idea what sort of ceremony I saw? I'm sending a couple of photos of what i saw. Hoping you can tell me what i saw Best regards Alek Krylow Hej

Melasti, according to the ancient scripture of Sundari Gama and Swamandala is melasti ngarania ngiring prewatek dewata anganyutaken laraning jagat, papa klesa, letuhing bhuwana, amet sarining amertha ring telenging segara. In English this sentence means Melasti means to follow the deity in the purpose to drift away impurities, miseries and poor mundane elements and take tirtha amertha, or holy water of life in the sea.
