More to sacrifice in the temple

Offerings given to more altars in the temple-
Dressed in a sarong and waist-sash, a young girl or woman will usually perform this daily ritual unless she is sebel – spiritually unfit due to menstruation – in which case a male relative will take over.
A jepun (plumeria) flower is dipped into a bowl of tirta (water taken from a holy spring) and delicately sprinkled over the canang sari and incense to complete the fusion of earth, fire, wind and water. After three waves of the palm facing downward accompanied by a prayer, the smoke carries the essence of the offerings up to God.
