Two pemangku priest in Pura Batu Madeg

Every temple has its own pemangku, a lay priest who maintains the temple and officiates at everyday rituals. Pemangku remain in direct contact with the ancestors and can exorcise devils. Even the most indigent Balinese will make a great effort to hire the services of a pemangku, especially when it comes to making sure dead loved ones are properly ushered into the spiritual world.
