Obituary: Dr. A. A. Made Djelantik
Dr. A. A. Made Jelantik, renaissance man supreme, doctor of dharma, aesthetician, and one of most decent human beings I have ever met, has left us. He passed away just after midnight on Tuesday, 5 September 2007. His body will remain at his home in Renon until the 10th of September when he shall be brought to his childhood home of Puri Agung in Karangasem.

The ritual kingsan ring geni (or bequethal to the fire) shall be performed on 13 September in Karangasem. This ritual is the burning of the body, but is not considered as a cremation by the Balinese. The crematory rituals will be held at an undisclosed future date.
Farewell, dear friend.
