Bali Memorial and Cleansing Ceremony

In memory of the deaths of nearly 200 people 
in the terrorist bombing in Bali, 
members of the traditional Balinese group Gamelan Sekar Jaya 
gathered on a San Francisco beach. 
Following Bali-Hindu religious traditions, 
the event symbolically cleansed the land in Bali.
