Pemelaspasan
Formal Balinese house-blessing ritual for newly completed or renewed spaces before full use.
Pemelaspasan is a formal blessing ritual performed when a new or newly renewed building is prepared for proper use.
Many people refer to the same practical idea using the shorter term Melaspas.
For owners and operators, this is not a legal permit substitute but a cultural milestone that often matters to neighbors and local workers.
