A Tenggerese ceremony sends offerings into Mount Bromo’s crater

During Yadnya Kasada in East Java, Tenggerese devotees pray at Mount Bromo and throw offerings into its crater. Vegetables, fruit and flowers express gratitude for agricultural abundance. Some people retrieve offerings, though entering the crater involves danger.

The mountain itself becomes part of the ceremony.
