I also vote for .3 the spiritual option.
When the pesi of the keris is broken, the keris is damaged and for the believers in the spiritual powers of keris such a keris has become even an unpredictable and dangerous object. A ganja with a small hole that shows the pesi, called a "lotus cup" is pouring good luck over the owner of the keris. When the ganja has two lotus cups, one at each side the luck is pouring out double. I think Michael is in the right corner. A ganja is of course in my opinion a construction technique with a purpose, brought up by man, but what purpose? That's the question. Very nice discussion. |
