Nearly half a century has passed since a traveling Brahmin priest watched the sun set at the point where Tanah Lot now stands. Sensing the spiritual significance of the endless seas to the west and tropical mountains to the north, he advised the Balinese to build the “Temple of the Land and Ocean” here. The physical landscape of Bali reflects the spiritual ordering of the universe, the most important points of which are marked by such temples. Tanah Lot has always been one of the most important connections to the spiritual world for the Balinese, reflecting the ancient Hindu and Buddhist concept of “shanty”, which T.S.Eliott described as “the place which passes all understanding”. Today the temple remains one of the island’s most awe-inspiring sights.
