Bali, sekala & niskala : essays on religion, ritual, and art

In Bali, what you see - sekala - is a colorful world of ceremony, ritual, dance, and drama. What you don't see -niskala - is the doctrine underlying the pageants, the code underlying the rites, and the magic underlying the dance. This title explores both tangibles and intangibles in the realm of Balinese religion, ritual and performing arts.
