  • A penjor (Balinese: ᬧᬾᬜ᭄ᬚᭀᬃ) is a Balinese Hindu religious symbol of prosperity installed on the day of the Galungan ceremony. Its form is of a tall, decorated bamboo pole and can be seen across Bali year-round in front of homes, compounds and are part of temple anniversary celebrations as well almost every other important religious ceremony and Hindu life-cycle rituals. The poles vary in length but are typically 5-10 meters in height with a distinctive curve near its upper portion. The penjor is said to resemble both the tail of the barong, a symbol of the goodness, and the peak of the sacred mountain Mount Agung. Their decoration schemes range from simple to exquisite using yellow coconut leaves and a variety of other symbolic materials such as pala bungkah (sweet potato) roots, pala gantung (cucumbers, oranges, bananas), pala wija (rice, corn), plawa (leaves), traditional cakes, and coins. Some penjors are created as permanent installations. (en)
  • Penjor (Bali: ᬧᬾᬜ᭄ᬚᭀᬃ) merupakan simbol dari Naga Basuki yang artinya kesejahteraan dan kemakmuran. Bagi umat Hindu di Bali penjor merupakan simbol gunung yang dianggap suci. Penjor seyogya dipasang tepat pada hari penampahan galungan, setelah jam 12 siang. Hal ini bermakna ketika hari raya penampahan galungan kita sebagai manusia berperang melawan pikiran yang kotor, berperang melawan sifat negatif, dan sifat ego. Setelah berhasil memenangkan perperangan melawan pikiran serta sifat-sifat tersebut maka sebagai pertanda kemenangan dipasanglah penjor sebagai simbol "kemenangan". (in)
