Known as the Balinese New Year, the belief behind this spiritual Balinese new year is simple: Nyepi’s purpose is to trick those demons, pretending there is “no life” on the island of Bali, so they can leave.  You’ll see the symbolisation during the “Ogoh-Ogoh” day, Balinese people parade on the street with monster-like handmade creatures, which is dedicated to bring out / call the demons and to eventually destroy them.
