Tirta Empul Temple, located in Tampaksiring, Bali, is a sacred Hindu site dating back to 962 AD during the Warmadewa dynasty. The temple is dedicated to Vishnu, the god of water, and is renowned for its holy spring, which continuously supplies crystal-clear water to its purification pools and fountains. This spring is believed to hold healing properties and plays a central role in purification rituals like the Melukat Ceremony, where devotees seek spiritual cleansing and renewal. Tirta Empul Temple is deeply connected to Balinese mythology. According to legend, the spring was created by Lord Indra to counteract the evil King Mayadenawa, who poisoned local water sources. Indra pierced the earth to produce the water of immortality, saving his troops and restoring balance. The spring water is believed to have healing properties and is used for purification rituals.
