The religion of the Balinese Hindus is so wildly imaginitive. While Christians meditate on a man horribly tortured to death on a cross-- "dead man" as my Balinese friend summed it up -- Hindus have hordes of fantastic creatures in their pantheon. These monsters look Balinese, with their unique features, their grace, and their curling toes. However they sport blue wings, beaks and bulging eyes.
