Some aspects of my Pokok Pauh Janggi performance were gleaned from this early cinematic record of Kelantanese Wayang Kulit from 1956.

1. The puppets are painted only on one side – the side viewed by the Tok Dalang, so that he might be inspired during the performance.
2. There is a blessing of the panggung (puja) with kemenyan (benzoin resin), food offerings and incantations (mantra).
3. The puja involves a food offering consisting of telur rebus, nasi pulut kuning, daun sireh and a lighted candle on a ceramic plate.
4. Bomoh and Dalang sit together during the upacara membuka panggung.
5. The bomoh covers his head by draping his head cloth (destar) over himself at the climax of the ritual.
