Tourism in Bali is the source of the economy that supports most Balinese people. But as it is now, Bali tourism has dimmed since the Covid-19 virus is endemic in the world. It has been two years since the Covid-19 virus has attacked our beloved earth. Several policies have been implemented. However, Bali tourism has not been able to return to normal. We as citizens, especially as young Balinese, should provide and carry out creative efforts that can stimulate tourism in Bali.</br></br>In this era of globalization, everything is digital and sophisticated. We can use this advanced technological development as a tool to generate tourism in Bali. One of the creative businesses that can generate tourism in Bali is an application called BALI MELALI. This application uses technology in the form of VR or Virtual Reality. In the BALI MELALI application, it displays tourism destinations in Bali. If you use this VR technology, tourists or anyone who has downloaded the BALI MELALI application can see the tourism places that we want. Using this VR, tourism destinations in Bali can be seen for real, this can foster a sense of longing for Bali and cause tourists to want to come again to Bali.</br></br>In the BALI MELALI application, it not only displays well-known tourism destinations, but should also display places that are not widely known. In Bali, there are actually many tourist destinations that are not well known. If you only show places like Kuta Beach, Pandawa Beach, many tourists will already know. That's why in this application it is very good if it shows places that are not known by many people. Not only that, the BALI MELALI application does not only display virtual or images, but can be filled with sounds that are in that place. For example at Candikuning Waterfall, if we travel to waterfalls, there are definitely sounds like the sound of gurgling water, the sound of trees blowing by the wind, the sound of birds and so on.</br>The presence of images and sounds in the BALI MELALI ibi application can certainly cause longing from tourists and travel to Bali. Hopefully the business in the form of the BALI MELALI application can help Bali tourism return to normal. Hopefully Bali tourism will rise soon.al. Hopefully Bali tourism will rise soon.)
  • Literature Menuang Isi Hati di BASAbali Wiki  + (Who doesn’t know BASAbali Wiki? This websiWho doesn’t know BASAbali Wiki? This website contains information about Bali. Maybe if students have any Balinese language assignment, they can open the BASAbali Wiki site. From dictionaries, word games, to articles—they are here. This website also often holds Balinese language competitions called Wikithons. A Wikithon stands for wiki marathon. It is a place to argue about public issues, and to talk about the most appropriate solution to the problems of society in the world. Communities can argue, improve their proficiency in Balinese, and can also get money if they win. Most importantly, all opinions regarding public issues can be submitted here and heard by the government.</br></br>The purpose of the BASAbali Wiki Website is indeed very good. But we need to think about it together, is it only when there is a wikithon, can people have an opinion? Then if the topic or issue of Withton is not felt by the community, how can the community have an opinion? So, if BASAbali Wiki really wants to become a platform where people can think about what’s around them, and can convey their feelings to the government, the BASAbali Wiki website should make a feature “Ngiring Masuara” or in Indonesian it’s called “Let’s Talk”. If you click on the “Ngiring Masuara” button, people can write their feelings about everything around them, what public issues will be resolved, and everything that will be conveyed to the government. Not only writing, but there you can also fill in photos, videos, locations, and the name of the service to be addressed.</br></br>For example, if there is a puddle or a broken road, it can cause harm to passers-by, especially at night. People who see this can write in the “Ngiring Masuara” feature. There, the public can complain to the Public Works Department and complete it with photos of the damaged roads. Then the BASAbali Wiki team would be in charge of making sure that the people’s writings on this topic can reach the correct officers.</br></br>There are several problems that are often encountered on the road, but we don’t know where to complain. In the end, people sneer at the government on social media. That is also useless. The government will not moved to help. However, if there is already a BASAbali Wiki website, hopefully the voices of the people can reach the government. That is my opinion. Hopefully, BASAbali Wiki can spark people’s enthusiasm to pay attention to the environment and public issues. I hope BASAbali Wiki can connect to the government about people’s feelings and opinions. In the end, the community and the government can jointly hold on to each other to make Bali more advanced.</br>The fruit of the durian tree rolls down and is sold at the market for ten thousand rupiah.

  • Sustainable Balinese Culture with TikTok  + (Who doesn’t know TikTok today? This short Who doesn’t know TikTok today? This short video platform is now gaining popularity in Indonesia, used by people of all levels. Bali as the world’s tourist destination is also inevitably influenced by the popularity of this app. Many Balinese are actively creating content on TikTok. Some create ‘a day in my life’ contents, dance covers, cinematic video, musics, or just scrolling and sharing videos or links to others. Seen from the technological perspective, the contents in TikTok is very helpful in spreading information and entertainment. However, have you ever wondered if TikTok would gradually diminish the local culture and tradition in Bali? We know that Bali has a lot of culture and traditions that need to be preserved. Gradually, however, many Balinese people no longer are concerned with or learn about their own culture. For example, today’s younger generation prefer following TikTok’s dance trends to learning Balinese dance. If continued, it will influence the existence of Balinese culture because Bali is well-known for its unique culture, not for TikTok trends. It is important, therefore, for us Balinese to always remember to preserve our culture that has been flourishing since olden times. It’s okay if people want to follow TikTok trends, but it would be better if we Balinese join by setting new trends on it with our own Balinese cultural touches. For instance, we can show how Balinese dance is performed, how Balinese music is played, how Balinese make-up is done, and other cultural contents. Let’s preserve Balinese arts and culture on digital platforms such as TikTok so that everyone in world knows more about the beauty and uniqueness of our Balinese culture by adapting to the current developments.e by adapting to the current developments.)
  • Bali in equality  + (Why are there so many phenomena when boys Why are there so many phenomena when boys who are born are said to be safe and considered lucky, but if women are often said "yes, that's okay". It's just realistic that many people think that women have a lower position than men. What's the difference though? In religion women and men have the same role and position. Male and female elements, "purusa and pradana" are in human beings and are important in the process of creation. Women also have a triple role, they can have a household, they can work for a living, moreover they can be active with local residents. Mebraya, metanding, ngayah are common things that women do. If that's the case, why is it often said that only sons can continue offspring, right? Even though the system in Bali adheres to patriarchy, there is still such a thing as "nyentana" when a man lives in the household of his wife). The understanding of gender equality is very appropriate to be applied by all Balinese people. Women can still lead and take care of all the affairs and many jobs. It is time for a culture that follows religion to look at this in another way for the common good. “Pesu peluh meli taluh, eda kadena aluh dadi anak luh“.eli taluh, eda kadena aluh dadi anak luh“.)

Because they were worried about causing commotion in the village, the boy and girl decided to go into the forest looking for their mother. The sister carried her brother. They met their mother deeply in love with a dragon. They were angry, because they thought that because of the dragon the brother had become like that. He challenged the dragon snake to fight. In the end, the brother who had been transformed into a snake defeated the dragon. But unfortunately their mother also died in the fight. The siblings went up to Bukit Lesung. Arriving there, the brother thought he must enter the bowels of the earth, because he had become a dragon, named Naga Gombang. So as not to upset his sister, he told her to get water with a basket.

Creese draws upon her background in philology to examine the corpus of epic kakawin (poems written in Old Javanese in verse) that were composed in those courtly centers over a millennium, as they provide rich insights about the lives of women that are not available from other sources.

  • Indifference to Others  + (You must be familiar with the conflict betYou must be familiar with the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. Recently, it has been in the spotlight again because the two countries are indeed in a high-level crisis stage. So, invasion could happen at any time. Based on the latest international news, the war between Russia and Ukraine is still going on today (Wednesday, May 18, 2022) and has entered the 84th day. According to the latest news, Ukrainian officials say that peace negotiations between the two countries have reached a stalemate. The Guardian reported that Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov had said he believed there could be no peace deal if negotiators tried to “transfer dialogue” as the West says instead of talking about the immediate situation in Ukraine. To date, many fighters have surrendered and they have been transferred to territory already under Russian control. According to the United Nations, to date, there have been six million refugees who have fled Ukraine since the Russian invasion in February. Ukrainian citizens who managed to take refuge in various places, one of which is Poland, have a sad story. They are willing to leave their children and wives and are willing to fight for their country. There are also residents who take their children out of Ukraine because they have to find a safer place even though half of their lives are still in the area where they live.</br></br>Apart from the problems between these two countries, as social beings we certainly hope for the best, namely peace. The refugees are foremost human beings who cannot live alone and definitely need the help of others. If people normally want a peaceful life, surely the refugees from Ukraine also want a peaceful life. The difference occurs if they evacuate to another place. We, who have a place to live, may not feel the way they do. In general, humans have hearts and a spirit of humanity. Imagine if we were in the position of the refugees. Of course we also want to be helped, right? Automatically when refugees come to our territory, it would be nice if we accept them openly. Greet them with what we have even if this is temporary. What we could provide, we should try to take the initiative to give to them. Teach them about caring, sincerity, patience and other things that support their current situation and current condition. It’s enough for simple things, such as the food they need, adequate medicine, and a basic place to live.</br></br>Any simple form of giving will certainly help Ukrainian refugees. This assistance must also be communicated with the Indonesian government, so that there will be equality and justice in shelter areas. It is necessary to include education for the refugees. This will be very beneficial for refugees and also those who receive them. Starting from the basics, such as starting to entertain them with the culture that we have. No need to go far. Just basic things. In addition, the Indonesian people also need more education about Ukrainian refugees, so the desire to help will be channeled properly. The assistance is quite simple for Ukrainian refugees, what is certain is food, a proper place to stay and good treatment for them so that in the long term, there will be a good impact on both parties.ere will be a good impact on both parties.)

In the thirteenth year, they had to disguise themselves unnoticed. If their disguise is uncovered, then they must repeat the period of exile in the forest for another twelve years.</br></br>The Mahabharata incident occurred around 5,000 years ago, in the last quarter of the Dwaparayuga era. At that time, human life could reach 1,000 years with a long young period. So, do not be surprised if the Pandavas exiled themselves for a dozen years and can still have strong children. Not surprisingly, Bhisma, the elder of Hastinapur's nobles, was still alive when Arjuna, his grandson, had a son named Abhimanyu.</br></br>In the forest, the Pandavas meet various magical things. One of the most important is the meeting of Maharaja Yudhisthira with a python who was Nahusa, his own ancestor. Nahusa was cursed to be a snake because of his arrogance. There was also the Yaksa Prasna incident, when Maharaja Yudhisthira was tested by Lord Yamaraja, the controller of death.by Lord Yamaraja, the controller of death.)

This Kakawin was composed by Mpu Panuluh during the Jayabhaya period of Panjalu (1135-1157 A.D.). In the manggala (opening) section of kakawin, there is a verse of honor for King Jayabhaya.</br></br>The description in Kakawin Bharatayuddha is almost similar to the description of war in the Mahabharata written directly by Krishna Dvaipayana Vedavyasa 5,000 years ago. Presumably, this Kakawin is a kind of direct adaptation of the original Sanskrit text. The story in Kakawin Bharatayuddha begins with the arrival of Sri Krishna as an ambassador of peace for Pandavas. Sri Krishna did not want to eat at the Kaurava’s house, but He ate at Widura’s house.</br></br>Then war broke out between the Pandavas and the Kauravas. In the Mahabharata, the description of war begins in the Bhisma Parwa section. This Kakawin Bharatayuddha is a shortened version of Bhisma Parwa, Drona Parwa, Karna Parwa, Salya Parwa to Swargarohana Parwa. It is said that the war in Kuruksetra took place in December. At the beginning of the war it was told that Arjuna felt sorry for having to fight with his own relatives. But Sri Krishna convinced him to fight because it was a battle between right and evil. This philosophical and religious dialog is known as Bhagavad-gita. Unfortunately, Kakawin Bharatayuddha does not contain this most important teaching and is more focused on warfare. This is understandable because Kakawin Bharatayuddha is a pujasastra (praise literary work) for King Jayabhaya. In fact, the essence of the teachings in Bharatayuddha is actually Bhagawad-gita.</br></br>At the end of this story there is the story of revenge by Asvatthama (in the Sauptika Parwa section), but this kakawin does not tell about the destruction of the city of Dwaraka. Another interesting plot is the story of the revival of Pariksit who died in the womb. This story is also written in Hariwangsa and Bhagawata Purana.ritten in Hariwangsa and Bhagawata Purana.)

The use of such equipment is in line with the understanding of the holiness of the form of God Almighty, which is stated in various media including Omkara. The manifestation of God in other relationships is in the relationship between the god and the cardinal directions.</br>This Tutur Parakriya lontar manuscript is mostly about phonetic characters and combinations of those characters that give birth to various forms in the universe.

The contents of this text is written in ancient Javanese language, mixed with ordinary Balinese, perhaps made and copied from the fifteenth century, and until now must be read during cremation ceremonies or at Atma Wedana (Ngarorasin) ceremony.</br></br>The first and last part of the manuscript does not indicate in which year and during the reign of which king the script was made. From the beginning to the end, this text contains clues about the magical places the spirit of the deceased will pass before finally reaching Yamaloka. Yamaloka is the gate of the court of spirit, where every deed will be weighed according to the provisions of the Dharma law.</br></br>According to this ejection, the spirit of the deceased will encounter many strange things during the journey to Yamaloka. The magical places are in the form of forests on clouds, highways, wells, darkness, strange creatures, to deep rivers and mud. The spirit will also cross a bridge. If his actions during his life are good, all those terrible things will be passed over easily. If his actions are evil for life, the spirit will be trapped in those strange places.</br></br>In order for the spirit to pass through strange places easily, Putru Saji Tarpana gave directions to the road and supplies that the spirit had to carry. These road directions also contain provisions that must be given by the spirit to the astral creatures he encounters.</br></br>But this does not mean that only with a large ceremony of death can the spirit be freed from all sins. The death ceremony can only help the spirit journey to reach Yamaloka's court, but it cannot erase his bad deeds during life.

However, when the Mahabharata entered into various cultures in the world, this historical record was rewritten in the form of poetry, folktales and songs. In Indonesia itself, the Mahabharata was much changed its story to suit the interests at that time. This causes kakawin tobe unreliable as a source of history, but a literary work.</br></br>Mahabharata was written by Maharsi Krishna Dwaipayana Vyasa, the greatest and most respected sage by all Hindus.</br></br>In Sabha Parwa, the saddest story is when Drupadi, the wife of the Pandavas, was dragged into the courtroom because her husbands lost bets. When Drupadi was almost stripped naked by Dussasana, Sri Krishna, who was Lord Vishnu himself, protected her by giving a very long string of saris to cover her body.</br></br>Sabha Parwa is historical evidence that God is always present for anyone who surrenders to Him and becomes His faithful devotees. to Him and becomes His faithful devotees.)

Each Parwa has a section called Kanda.</br></br>Adi Parwa is the first part of the Mahabharata which tells about the ancestral lineage of the Pandavas and Kauravas. It was stated that they were descendants of the Lunar Dynasty. In ancient times, humanity was ruled by the great kings of two dynasties, namely the Sun and the Moon. The two dynasties began from Lord Surya (the sun-god) and Lord Candra (the moon-god), so the quality of the kings of their descendants far exceeded those of ordinary humans.</br></br>Adi Parwa mainly tells about the creation of the universe in four stages, the appearance of the divine incarnations (avataras) of God in the previous eras, the birth of Pandavas and Kauravas and the birth of Maharsi Krishna Dwaipayana Wyasa who is the incarnation of God and the most respected sage for the Hindus around the world.

Different but still one, that's what it means. Simple, but meaningful. As a diverse nation, the diversity of life in Indonesia is unparalleled. Starting from tribes, religions, races, and diversity of groups have been staples in the identity of the Indonesian nation since the time of the ancestors. However, the truth is that life’s wheel isn’t always good. There are times when diversity becomes a threat, like a double-edged sword. Knowing this, it is vital to instill a sense of tolerance for diversity in the children of a nation. True mutual respect, esteem, and love are the keys to a strong bond of brotherhood in diversity. Hinduism recognizes a concept titled kinship called “Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam”.</br></br>From the Sanskrit, “vasudha” means earth, “iva” means as, and “kutumbakam” means family, so Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam has the meaning that all peoples of the world are one family and brothers without distinction of the tribe, religion, or race, language, or culture. Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam suggests five things in its successful implementation: truth, virtue, charity, peace, and ahimsa.

The number of motorized vehicles and cars increases every day. As a result, cars, public transportation and motorbikes pile up on the streets, traffic jams occur.

This especially happens to people who choose to use private transportation rather than public transportation.</br> Traffic jams occur because too many people use motorized vehicles or cars and also because many road users do not comply with traffic regulations.</br> On this occasion I would like to invite you to overcome traffic jams in Bali. If we cannot overcome them, at least we can reduce traffic jams in Bali. There are 2 main things we can do to reduce congestion. First, use public transportation, don't use private vehicles, using public transportation can reduce the volume of vehicles on the road. In the end, traffic jams will be reduced. Second, get used to walking if the distance is not too far. This method is simple but difficult to do. Even though walking is healthy, and by walking we are contributing to reducing traffic jams in Bali. I am sure that by taking these 2 actions traffic jams in Bali can be reduced.</br> However, the Bali Government is expected to improve the comfort and safety of public transportation. I am sure that if public transportation is safe and comfortable, there will be more passengers. Finally, the number of private transportation users will decrease by itself.</br> This is all I can say, hopefully it is useful for all of us. Sorry if there are wrong words and actions.

Apart from Eka Dasa Rudra, Bali will welcome the Maligia Marebu Bumi ceremony which is held once every 1000 years, every last three digits of the Saka year reach 0. However, judging from the current condition of Balinese culture, it is now increasingly dim. Will the Maligia Marebu Bumi ceremony still hold Balinese culture? Because many young people have left Balinese culture, forgetting the Balinese language. Then how. I hope the government can listen to my advice. My suggestion is that the government must infuse Balinese culture to young people, by developing the entertainment industry. Countries like Japan and Korea can maintain their culture because young people watch their own culture. Most young people in Indonesia, especially in Bali watch foreign films and play foreign entertainment with a foreign culture, so that young Balinese have an interest in foreign cultures, and end up having the dream of wanting to live in a foreign country. If the government wants to develop the entertainment industry, then young people will be aware of the culture they have, so they will aspire to develop their own country. In addition to solving internal problems, the entertainment industry is very profitable. With this, Balinese culture will be increasingly recognized by the world and its influence can match Japanese and Korean culture. Then can this be realized? The Entertainment Industry can be anything, such as Movies, Animation, Games, Songs, Etc. Many Balinese HR talents are suitable for this, such as painters who will create 2D graphic designs, City People who are talented with Coding, and Undagi or Sculptors who will create 3D designs. because at this time, it is time for us to modernize our culture so that it can be accepted by our younger generation, even the world by our younger generation, even the world)

We must understand these five things and have them within each of us. According to Setara Institute researchers, one of the trends throughout 2022 is the continued increase in cases of disturbances to places of worship. Then, there are other trends such as violations of freedom of religion and belief. Of the 333 acts of violation of freedom of religion and belief, 94 were mostly committed by residents (quoted from the @voaindonesia upload).</br>With the cases that occurred, the meaning of harmony faded. It is only spoken in the mouth but cannot be felt in reality. The motto ‘harmony is cool’ is, in my opinion, not quite right, because Basuki Tjahaya Purnama once said “If an official is not corrupt, they do not need to be respected because that is indeed their oath of office.” It’s the same with harmony. We must understand, own and do it to our fellow human beings. From the smallest scale, namely in the family, we must provide education about harmony, as well as at school. This is the most basic foundation in character building. In society, we must also have the courage to be agents of change, setting an example that whatever religion we adhere to (which has been recognized by the Indonesian government) is good. We should not gossip, for example when we are working late at the office to replace a colleague who is having a holiday service. Unity can be shown by no discrimination among friends and being willing to get along with any friends at school and agreeing to help for the religious holidays. Also, we can start simple benevolence by saying ‘sorry’, ‘thank you’ and ‘please’ to anyone.</br>These things are just small things that we can definitely do. The advantages if we are religiously in harmony are discounts and holidays that can be enjoyed by anyone.

However, since Covid-19 has wreaked havoc on the world, tourists no longer travel to Bali. Likewise, Bali's tourism life is dead. This has a bad influence on the economic, social, and psychological aspects of the Balinese people. Balinese people who work in tourism currently do not have a livelihood, this causes problems in the economic field. Because everything that is needed must be purchased using money, it makes people sad, problems arise in the psyche. Under these circumstances, there are now many beggars and buskers at crossroads who wear Balinese traditional clothes, problems arise in the social sector. Because the death of Bali tourism has a bad effect, it is necessary to find a way out so that tourism can bounce back.</br></br>Since the arrival of the Covid-19 pandemic, digital technology or in the network is growing. This digital technology can generate Bali tourism. How to? In my opinion, currently, the government can sell the existence of art, culture, and natural beauty to the world market through the website. The website can also be filled with virtual exhibitions using 360-degree technology, such as digital exhibitions that have often been carried out by people abroad. With one website, you can fill in several videos and virtual exhibitions from art museums throughout Bali. Through this website, tourists do not need to come to Bali, but only with digital experience, they can enjoy the natural beauty of Bali.</br></br>Now what can also be developed is the performing arts or performing arts which can be recorded and shared online or digitally. Balinese people who have not got jobs can be embraced to learn together performing arts such as Kecak and other colossal dances. It needs to be noted, those who want to watch every video on the website must buy a ticket in advance.</br></br>From some of the opinions I conveyed above, the development of digital technology can be a bridge to awaken Bali tourism while preserving Balinese art and culture.
