If a traditional art can generate or emit vibrations Taksu attraction then it can be understood because when driven by a desire to create works that offer good, far from the mind ego copyright and selling value.



Works of art and culture at first appear as a liability that should be carried out by certain professional groups in an effort to offer the perfect devotion to God through religious activities. Dance and musical expression of happiness was created to reveal the decline of the Gods while welcoming ceremony at Temple, which was translated in fine art paintings and sculptures always appear in various completeness sajen as a medium to connect the spiritual communication while carol singing and the puja echoed to express praise for the welfare of the delegated by the gods.

Balinese society, in addition to arts actor, is also an art lover who is very passionate in art. In theater arts, various play that underlies the creation of art are well packed so easily enjoyed and listened to fill their thinking insights. The leaders of the past were quick to see the art activity as an effective media to convey messages to the people. Inevitably thriving literary arts provide a clear direction to the other branches of art. Therefore, almost in all branches of art, then there is clearly division between sacred to the profane arts, and arts to the performing arts offerings.

Balinese dance is arts and culture, from the days of history, has become an integral part of the everyday people of Bali. When the time of the power of kings is very strong, different branches of arts and culture is king and the royal family kelangenan. When patterns of governance and more stable life for people in Bali on the basis of Hindu philosophy, the art of Balinese culture was shifted toward art offerings.
