Abstract

ge above is perhaps the most Instagrammed symbol of Balinese culture — The iconic <a href="https://www.handaragolfresort.com/experiences/handara-iconic-gate-path-way-serenity/">Handara Gate</a>. It is located in the village of Pancasari, Bedugul, and is famous for its dark Balinese architecture & the beautiful smoky mountainous hill view with lush greenery in the background. You would be forgiven if you imagined that it represents something larger than a mere physical gate but in fact, it is the entrance gate to the Handara Golf & Resort. I enjoy a game of golf every now and then and not to say that golf courses cannot offer spiritual experiences or can they — you decide! And thank you <a href="undefined">Lucy Dan 蛋小姐 (she/her/她)</a> for opening the medium gate and accepting this poem for TBiN.</p><p id="5087"><b>Thank you</b> for reading!</p><p id="d2c4">The original prompt:</p><div id="9b30" class="link-block"> <a href="https://readmedium.com/ga

The Opening and the Unknown

A doorway splits the universe material from spiritual Entrance to the temple Maybe an inner courtyard peace, love, serenity and enlightenment Or perhaps A golf course!

Thank you to Lucy Dan 蛋小姐 (she/her/她) for the prompt: gates, gatekeeping, gatekeepers. As I sat reflecting on this prompt, the first image Unsplash came up with was that of this Balinese icon. Bali is a dream of a destination and the Bali gate in the image above is perhaps the most Instagrammed symbol of Balinese culture — The iconic Handara Gate. It is located in the village of Pancasari, Bedugul, and is famous for its dark Balinese architecture & the beautiful smoky mountainous hill view with lush greenery in the background. You would be forgiven if you imagined that it represents something larger than a mere physical gate but in fact, it is the entrance gate to the Handara Golf & Resort. I enjoy a game of golf every now and then and not to say that golf courses cannot offer spiritual experiences or can they — you decide! And thank you Lucy Dan 蛋小姐 (she/her/她) for opening the medium gate and accepting this poem for TBiN.

Thank you for reading!
