Hindu symbol Penjor in Ubud in Bali in Indonesia. The Penjor is a tall curved bamboo pole decorated with coconut leaves and an offering at it's base. They are used in almost all Hindus in Bali. The Sri Jaya Kasunu manuscript states that the Penjor symbolises the mountain and the mountain itself symbolises the universe. The aim of erecting the Penjor is to show devotion to God in His manifestation as the God of the mountain. During celebrations each family erects a Penjor outside their gate.
