The last tribute to the late Balinese people was carried out with a cremation ceremony at a local public cemetery.

If a community member dies, then there is a kulkul, a kind of musical instrument that is beaten hammered in the bale banjar which is a place where people gather.

Families and the surrounding community will come to the house of the deceased, to work together to make bade 'corpse tools made of motherhood filled with gold and white paper makeup, equipped with white and yellow cloth, as a symbol of purity and glory or symbol of Siva and Buddha.

Then the corpse was cut bade into the cemetery to be burned, accompanied by all family members and the surrounding community, with 'Gong' accompaniment which is a traditional Balinese musical instrument, all use headband called Udeng, and Kamen which are fabric replacement pants and belt replacement belts complete with local religious leaders.

After the cremation ceremony is finished, the ashes and bade are burned, and the ashes are thrown into the sea or the nearest large river.

Ngaben, also known as Pitra Yadyna, Pelebon or cremation ceremony, is the Hindu funeral ritual of Bali, Indonesia. A Ngaben is performed, states Victoria Williams, to release the soul of a dead person so that it can enter the upper realm where it can wait for it to be reborn or become liberated from the cycles of rebirths. The Balinese Hindu theology holds that there is a competition between evil residents of the lower realm to capture this soul, and a proper cremation enhances the chance that it may reach the upper realm.
