Basmankurem

Meanwhile, kuram means descendant. This refers to descendants who are able to provide freedom from impurities, mala, poverty, petaka, and klesa. The term basmankurem refers to a person's spiritual dimension, namely ekajadi (Pemangku) and dwijati (Wiku or Sulinggih). Ekajati or Pemangku in Balinese tradition are usually chosen based on lineage. If a great-grandfather was a Pemangku, then the grandfather, father, and son are likely to become Pemangku at that location. It's even possible that the grandson will become the caretaker of the temple in question, except for the putung. In this context of continuity, it's called basmankurem. A similar tradition also applies in the world of wiku (wiku). If the kompyangan (company) was previously the Wiku, then the grandfather, father, and even children and grandchildren strive to continue the tradition. This relates to the responsibility of purifying and eliminating all forms of papa, klesa, lara, wigena, or the responsibility of performing sudamalaan (reconciliation). Therefore, both the Pemangku and especially the Wiku have the responsibility to pray for purity and peace in the niskala (spiritual) world. This is crucial because a positive situation of purity and peace in the niskala will significantly determine the sekala (temple). The basmankurem dimension is crucial because this tradition has the potential to be supported by the community, or at least its sisya (sisters) and regional voters. In the context of tradition, for example, the Klungkung region with Mount Agung and Klotok beach is under the 'rule' of the Klungkung king. Similarly, Badung, with the Mengwi Kingdom, has its territory, Mount Puncak Mangu, and its (segarnya) beach, Cemagi. Each region traditionally has a Wiku (spiritual leader) as Petirtan or Siwan Jagat, Bhagawanta Puri, and Basmankurem.
