It is all just a performance right? A show put on for us, the media folks who so wanted to learn about the Javanese culture and traditional dances brought over by Javanese folks decades ago; right? I will let you think so for now as I go on. Things got really weird as some of the possessed dancers started doing things that humans usually do not do. One of the boy dancers started biting the husk off an unopened coconut the way a monkey does. Another dancer started slithering on the ground like a snake. Those who took on the personalities of the horses continued galloping in circles; strangely all of them in perfect rhythm.
157 Not long later things took to a slightly violent turn. Someone then reassured us that as long as we do not go into the circle we will be okay. The shaman had created an unseen fence in front of us surrounding the dancers and the spirits ensuring that the spirits will not be able to cross over it. Feeling reassured we continue watching the show while some of us went around shooting photos. If you are thinking that nothing worse could possibly happen, well, wrong. Suddenly the shaman who was trying to contain the spirits by removing them from some of the possessed who have gone a little too weird, gave out a scream too. Just what we needed. The one who is supposedly in control is now himself possessed and in a trance. Now, dancers in their animalistic personalities started breaking out of the circle and they started “running” up trees. Two of them actually; one a tiger and the other; a bird (the shaman). There goes the assurance of the unseen safety fence. I quickly shot as many photos as I could from below taking precaution just in case they started throwing coconuts at us.
