CHAPTER 34. WHAT ENERGY IS ENTERING OUR BODY?


Quite a long time also we were on the beach while enjoying and feeling the wind slap and the sound of waves pounding. But what makes me feel good here is that I feel something different with my body.


I feel different, excited, and I feel healthier, than ever before.


Next to me Sumadi was sitting, every time there was a wind coming and the waves pounding he took a deep breath. It was as if he was inserting a gust of wind emanating from those waves into his body.


I just let him take a deep breath when there is a gust and pounding of waves coming.


“Di, what do you feel here, it looks like you are so happy Di?”


“Ngak know No, it feels different with my body, it feels more excited when I breathe the sea breeze, it looks like something emerged from the pounding of the waves in front of us it”


“You feel there is warmth in your body In?”


“Not only warm feeling No, but do not know anything different anyway, I just feel very happy, my body feels light and healthy”


“We've been here almost three hours Di, I think I've caught a cold rec, let's go from here and find dinner yuk”


“Come No, I think it is enough tonight we are here, after listening to the waves, feel the wind is a bit strong coming from the sea, now I feel quite healthy No”


I don't know if what the sea gave us on the beach could cause a change in my body,.... Healthier and more passionate.


I'll just get some information from Gusta and Gustin.


We ate a bit away from the K beach area because in this area almost all prices for foreign tourists, unlike our stomachs which contain packaged rice or jinggo rice which costs five thousand can make hahahah.


“Already at nine pm No, let's just go back, I will not finish checking the contents of the handycam and recorder” said Sumadi whose voice was no longer moody.


“It feels nothing to lose that we were in the sea Di, it feels like there is some kind of energy going into my body”


“Iya No, the same as I felt earlier”.


Ten o'clock and fifteen minutes we arrived at the hotel. Incidentally today the hotel parking lot is full, it seems like there are many guests, but fortunately the hotel allows us to park in front of the entrance of the hotel office.


We walked to the room where we were staying….


When I open the door…. I feel like this room is so gloomy. Me and Sumadi were still in front of the door of the room that was opening.


“Why No.... gloomy ya room?”


“Iya Di, is it because the room lights are less bright yes..?”


“It looks like yes No, maybe if this room light is bright the state of the room is not as dark, ini”


“Eh buy lamp to shop front of hotel only first In,.... “


Sumadi waited in front of the hotel. While I was at the shop in front of the hotel, the K-circle is open 24 hours. When I got to this store, it turns out that this store does not sell the lights I mean.


Let me ask you in the hotel office, who knows he has a brighter supply of lights than the one in the room right now.


“No lights No?” shouts Sumadi from across the street


“Ya No, I went to the hotel office first”


I crossed a road that is still quite crowded. Well know for yourself this city where ever deserted except the Nyepi holiday.


“No No, said the hotel employee, they only have such lights, there is nothing brighter than”


“Ya wis Di, tomorrow we search in the electronics store only, now we return to the room there Di”


The light of this room is actually already bright, but I don't know why it's so gloomy at the moment. Uh actually from yesterday, yes, I think this is also the light of the lamp.


But I don't know why it felt different tonight, it felt so bleak….


I looked to the right of my room….


Incidentally in not far from our room there is a place called Padmasana (a place to pray and put banten offerings). And at present Padmasana it contains a lot of banten (sesajen).


From yesterday when we came here the banten in Padmasana was not as much as now, I approached the padmasana not far from our room.


There were several sticks of incense that had died among the banten…


“Di, like today is a holiday, try to ask the hotel officer, why today the padmasanya contains a lot of banten”


Sumadi headed to the hotel office which was not far from our room.


“Iya No, today is Kajeng Kliwon.


“Try searching on Google or ChatGPT what is kajeng kliwon Di”


“Hmm this No... which I just read on google, it kajeng kliwon sacred and sacred days”


“Kajeng kliwon itself is one of the religious ceremonies that is often identified as a sacred day by Hindus. When kajeng kliwon arrives, negative forces from within and from outside that easily appear and disturb the balance of nature.”


“And banten it's nature to neutralize negative forces, so in Padmasana it's a lot of bantennya.….You can search for it yourself on Google No”


“This is a taboo when Kliwon kajeng day. Good thing tonight we're not there No”


“Wadd…. Lolokcicing really do not know about today's time kajeng kliwon ya Di. did he deliberately not tell us who are blind about customs here?”


“Already... the important thing is we are not there No”.


Indeed, from when we will go to the beach, in each house, where the prayer is full of banten, different from yesterday-yesterday. But I didn't notice at all.


Just this time when I want to enter the room, lha the place of prayer here is also the same as those out there, banten which is presented various and many.


It turns out that there is currently a sacred day Kajeng Kliwon…


In the room, as usual Sumadi was busy with his equipment, whereas I just fell asleep and thought about what we would do again.


Frankly for this time I was afraid to come to the house again, the house had almost killed me and Sumadi. But cook yes, our intentions are good nothing should happen to us there.
