Before the question is answered with a variety of reasons, there is something better to say about the notion of Pitra yadnya and her multiple pregnancy. As is known, Pitra has become a term for Hindus in Bali. This term is part of Panca Yadnya. The other four yad are yadnya, yadnya Manusa, Rsi yadnya, and Bhuta yadnya.

Yad's pitra consists of two words, namely "pitra" and "yadnya". In book, "pitra" means parents (father and mother). A broader understanding can be called an ancestor. While the word "yadnya" means sacrifice based on a sincere heart that is pure. So, "pitra yadnya" means sacrifice based on a sincere heart to the ancestors, especially to parents.

Apparently understandable, all terms come from words, both singular and plural. Named a term because it has changed its meaning, no longer intact as the meaning of the original. Because it has a special meaning, the words are called terms. So is the term Pitra yadnya. As a term, Pitra yadnya has its own meaning, namely a religious ceremony that is used for events or calls or families that die with various offerings and tools upakara as ingredients. Thus more or less by using consciously various organizers can understand, namely to provide various means of sacred sacrifice which is the swadharma (responsibility) of each mirror.

Mungkah ceremony

The Pitra consists of several different types of implementation. Why? That is caused by the arrival of Hinduism to Bali not only once, it can be bumpy in a distance of even hundreds of years. Areas that deserve to be addressed and form the basis for the dissemination of different phases, the inheritance that has multiplied until now still shows diversity in this narrow island.

In this case it was stated in general that Pitra applies in most Hindu societies in Bali, especially in the lowlands. Why? Among other things, because the Pitra was carried out in the lowlands which apparently was the result of the refinement of Yang Ening Sira Empu Kuturan, Dang Hyang Dwijendra, Empu Lutuk, etc. While Hindus have not moved from their older traditions.

There may be a question why is the tradition in the mountains left? As mentioned in history, Dang Hyang Nirartha (Dang Hyang Dwijendra) has already spread around 400 years ago in Bali, as happened before Empu Kuturan. But the Balinese dresta started in the hollowness, it was not touched and adopted the two big fingers. Because, there is no more because of the two great masters in education without iron arms. The two masters behave; If people don't do it, they will do what they want or the sincerity of each of these community groups. Because is not the implementation of religion without being based on sredaning which is hypocrisy? Because it integrates people in the world who have not been able to receive Kustoming,
