TRANSFORMATIONAL TRAVEL - BALI- Video 3

BALINESE TREATS


Coffee

Bali coffee is one of the best coffee product you can drink in Bali, served hot with strong aroma. Bali coffee was planted since 19th century during the golden era of Klungkung kingdom. On that time, the land of Northern and Western part of this island was cultivated with many kind of agricultural products and coffee was one of it. The area of this plantation mainly covering 3 regencies in Bali, start from Tabanan, Singaraja and Bangli regency.

Kopi luwak (Indonesian [ˈkopi ˈlu.ak]), is coffee made from the beans of coffee berries which have been eaten by the Asian Palm Civet, then passed through its digestive tract. A civet eats the berries for their fleshy pulp. In its stomach, proteolytic enzymes seep into the beans, making shorter peptides and more free amino acids. Passing through a civet's intestines the beans are then defecated, having kept their shape. After gathering, thorough washing, sun drying, light roasting and brewing, these beans yield an aromatic coffee with much less bitterness, widely noted as the most expensive coffee in the world.


Okay, so I really thought they were kidding when I first heard about this coffee. Sounds kinda gross, right? Well, it actually tastes really good. It was rich and had essences of chocolate. I guess people eat many strange things- we can just ad this one to the list.

Tropical fruit in Bali is a feast in itself and is enough of a reason to visit Bali! The variety is numerous, and the taste and the aroma can definitely be a memorable experience.

Jack Fruit,Rambutan, Papaya, Starfruit, Pineapple, Pomelo, Durian, Sour Sop, and my favorite:

Salak: or snakeskin fruit due to the reddish-brown scaly skin is native fruit of Bali. It is the most popular fruit of the island among locals and tourists. The fruit is rather large, yellowish flesh and crunchy and mild tart and sweet flavors.


I definitely took advantage of the yummy offerings of Fruit. I had some interesting Shakes. I enjoyed a Jack Fruit & Durian Shake. And I had so much Coconut water , that I could probably have swam in it!! The colors were so vibrant, I often enjoyed just looking at the smorgasbord of fruit at the markets.

BALINESE CREATIVITY

BALINESE CREATIVITY


Art is a characteristic of village life and the tradition of handing down specialized skills and aesthetics from generation to generation. In each village, the inhabitants focus on a specific trade and become experts in that particular craft, whether it is jewelry, painting, woodwork, stone carving or carpentry. With the creative energy of a whole village concentrating on a particular skill, high standards of workmanship are produced.

Love of craft is evident everywhere and it is inseparable from the history, customs, culture, beliefs, superstitions and every day lives of the Balinese. And everyday is an expression of their Creativity. As an offering to the Gods, Balinese create ornate leaf and flower petal offerings left in auspicious places throughout the family compound & throughout the streets of Bali.

I spent a lot of time in Ubud, the epicenter for Art & Creativity in Bali. I enjoyed the Performing Arts- Traditional Balinese dance and musical performances that can be seen nightly at various sites in and around the town. Just walking through the Rice Fields, there are many artists painting traditional art to admire and buy(of course.)
I especially love that artistic creation linked to the spirituality . Allowing time to make the world beautiful is considered a way to thank God. Beauty is divine. The divine is in the beauty. How sweet is this idea. There is no ego involved- only true inspiration from God. FABULOUS!!!

Lovely Lake Guided meditation

Sweden Lake Meditation
This meditation was created on my recent trip to Sweden. I enjoyed a lot of time on a beautiful lake. As I meditated, I was overcome with joy and contentment. Contentment for myself and a deep knowing and understanding that all is well in my life.
I hope that you enjoy this offering of peace from my Summer in Sweden.


"First meditate, be blissful, then much love will happen of its own accord. Then being with others is beautiful and being alone is also beautiful. Then it is simple, too. You dont depend on others and you dont make others dependent on you. Then it is always a friendship, a friendliness. It never becomes a relationship, it is always a relatedness. You relate, but you dont create a marriage. Marriage is out of fear, relatedness is out of love. You relate; as long as things are moving beautifully, you share. And if you see that the moment has come to depart because your paths separate at this crossroad, you say good-bye with great gratitude for all that the other has been to you, for all the joys and all the pleasures and all the beautiful moments that you have shared with the other. With no misery, with no pain, you simply separate.
