It is important to appreciate the meaning of the swastika in Hinduism. One translation from the original sanskrit is 'that which is associated with well-being'. So the swastika is a symbol of good luck - the clockwise bending of the arms is a charm to bring good fortune. In Bali you will see it on the mantle of many gateways. The swastika has both a clockwise and an anti-clock wise version in Buddhism.

Ubud

A Balinese feels that his most

important duty is to marry as soon as he comes of age and to raise

a family to perpetuate his

line. A bachelor is in Bali abnormal, incomplete being

devoid of all social

significance since only settled

married men can become the

member of banjar and village association.
