RAKSASA
The Javanese do respect as well the goods as the evils, that is to say they pay the respect to both. Maybe in old times the respect was more honost and got expressed in the ugly-looking sculptures for the past (read Demons), like the Raksasa and Kala's with its smooth bulging cheeks and pop eyes, threateningly decorated with skulls around the neck ...
At Bali, the Island of Gods and Demons, some symbolic writings remained and, tell about the balance between good and evil. Although the evil seems to straight up to knock down the "other side" ... maybe the good???
