Ceremony otonan quarterly and should be carried out precisely on the day, namely: for three months, on day 105 after birth. Otonan ceremony after the first 6 months old Balinese calendar: 6x35 days = 210 days after birth. When 105 days old baby's organs are perfect in the sense senses are active, blood circulation and digestion is normal. Active senses bring positive and negative impact on the sanctity of the atman (soul). The purpose of the ceremony three months are:
1.Preparing children to be vigilant senses influences.
2.Thank Hyang Widhi forces that have kept the baby in the womb until birth
3.Babies have become "human" and may be named and his feet may tread the ground.
If not diupacarai three months, he was still "cuntaka" is not sacred. However, because the shoreline was far and also no one can make the ceremony on the exact day, then when back to Bali diupacarai all children once. It's called "exception" better late than not. The ceremony of mass can only be "squeezed offerings tataban" each child one. Likewise, the first otonan, or otonan routinely performed every 6 months in Bali.
Ceremony three monthy goal I have explained. Which may need to be explained more fully is the order of ceremony and symbol (niyasa) used. The order of the ceremony:
1. His father and mother infant mebeakala with the aim of eliminating cuntaka since birth.
2. Nyama bajang and kandapat "invited" to dihaturi offerings as a thank you for caring for babies in the womb until birth safely. Tattwa which is actually presented to Hyang Widhi celebration of the birth of a baby.
3. The Baby natab offerings bajang colong means receiving hand-me-down (prasadam) of "brother" is kandapat (placenta: the placenta, getih, Lamas, yeh-nyom)
4. The Babies "mepetik" (haircut, kept digundul, remove hair "dirty" inborn).
5. The Babies "Mapag rare" (greeted his birth) in Sanggah pamerajan, giving the name, and first set foot on the ground in front of kemulan.
6. The baby received hand-me-down (prasadam) Hyang Hyang Widhi Kumara is the manifestation of keeping the baby.
7. The Babies "mejaya-jaya" from Sulinggih, which is consecrated by the priest.
Symbol (niyasa) used in the ceremony Three Monthly:
* Regek namely woven coconut leaves 108 human form, as a symbol of Nyama Bajang;
* Papah the ivory palm leaf stem base as a symbol of the placenta,
* Pusuh the heart of banana as a symbol getih (blood),
* Stone as a symbol of yeh-nyom,
* Blego as a symbol of Lamas,
* Chicken as a symbol of atma,
* A pot that broke ground as a symbol of the womb that had given birth to a baby,
* Mortar stone as a symbol of strength Vishnu,
* Pane symbol Windu (Hyang Widhi)
* Water in the pane symbol akasa,
* Stairs from sugarcane yellow long a cubit was insolvent (stair) three pieces of wood dadap symbol Smara-Ruth (Hyang Widhi which gives panugrahan to the husband-wife).
Ceremony otonan simpler than three months, because the goal is to give thanks to Hyang Widhi for the gift of longevity, and to beg the safety and welfare.
