worlds; the seen or conscious world (Sekala), and the unseen or
psychic world (Niskala). Balinese healers engage the help of the
higher divine source during each healing session to draw upon the
universal life force (prana).

three elements must be in harmony for a person to exist in a healthy state, the
harmonious relation of a person to God/the supreme supernatural power, to the
environment/macrocosm, to the microcosm (their bodily needs, their thoughts and
their feelings). The Balinese people have seen these three causes bring
prosperity, wealth, safety, and happiness.
