The world was originally in darkness before knowledge came. Therefore, knowledge can be seen as the light of human life. Just as Besakih serves as the center of spiritual activities in Bali, it stands as a pillar of light—knowledge that guides human life. A bright light that lifts us from darkness onto the path of truth.
