  • Arjuna Wiwaha  + ([EN] Kakawin Arjuna Wiwaha is a modificati[EN] Kakawin Arjuna Wiwaha is a modification of the historical story in the Mahabharata, especially in Wana Parwa. This Kakawin tells about Arjuna's journey to search for magic weapons from Lord Shiva. In 1019-1042 A.D., the story of this ascetic Arjuna was translated and written in the form of ancient Javanese kakawin by Mpu Kanwa. The writing of this kakawin was done during the reign of King Airlangga.</br></br>At the beginning of this kakawin there is a story about Arjuna who did a hermitage on Mount Mahameru to get blessings from Lord Indra. Then, he was seduced by two angels. But Arjuna passed the test. As a blessing, he was given a magic weapon by Lord Indra.</br></br>There is also a story when Arjuna killed demon Niwatakawaca who controlled the demigods’ realm and disturbed the peace of the demigods.</br></br>This Kakawin, although in some parts does not correspond to its original history, is very popular among the Balinese. This kakawin is the most widely quoted and studied in schools. However, as a historical reference, this kakawin is not credible because many parts have been modified. There are many parts that do not fit the Mahabharata story according to the original as written by Maharsi Wyasa.

  • Bharatayuddha  + ([EN] Kakawin Bharatayuddha tells about 18-[EN] Kakawin Bharatayuddha tells about 18-day war on the battlefield of Kuruksetra. 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.)
  • Nitisastra  + ([EN] Kakawin Nitisastra is thought to have[EN] Kakawin Nitisastra is thought to have been written by Dang Hyang Nirartha, although the real author was never known. However, Nitisastra is actually a written work originating from Canakya Nitisastra in Sanskrit, written by Canakya Pandit during the reign of King Asoka in Magada, India.</br></br>Kakawin Nitisastra contains proper manners to be human, characteristics of a pious and impious person, the obligations of a student, a person who is married, and an obligation for priests. There are also many metaphors and parables about good and bad behavior, foods that are appropriate to eat and those that are not, and how to serve the four teachers.</br></br>A copy of the palm-leaf manuscripts of Kakawin Nitisastra is still preserved in Gedong Kirtya, Singaraja. In 1978, this manuscript was copied into Latin script by Hindu Religion teachers from PGAH Singaraja. Then, there is also a newer copy in the Balinese script from the Bali Provincial Culture Office, completed with meanings in alus singgih Balinese.</br></br>What caused Kakawin Nitisastra to be said to have been written by Dang Hyang Nirartha was because this kakawin was found together with Kakawin Nirartha Prakreta. The contents of the two kakawin do not differ much. Many writers suspect that this kakawin was written when Dang Hyang Nirartha lived in Gelgel. when Dang Hyang Nirartha lived in Gelgel.)
  • Sutasoma  + ([EN] Kakawin Sutasoma was written by Mpu T[EN] Kakawin Sutasoma was written by Mpu Tantular, and in this Kakawin there is the phrase "bhinneka tunggal ika" (unity in diversity) which became the official slogan of the Republic of Indonesia.</br></br>Kakawin Sutasoma is a literary work that tells Sutasoma’s journey (which is another name for Gautama Buddha himself) in teaching righteousness. This Kakawin seems to have a common plot with Aryasura’s Sutasoma in Pali language.</br></br>In Buddhism, the story of Sutasoma is very famous. This story is carved into the relief of Borobudur Temple, Central Java.</br></br>It is said that Sutasoma was born to a Kuru aristocratic family in Hastinapur. Sutasoma eventually attained spiritual enlightenment. One interesting plot in this story is the event when Sutasoma awakened Kalmasapada, a descendant of the king who behaved like a lion, to finally follow the path of virtue.</br></br>In his journey of spreading dharma, Sutasoma also met with Porisada, who likes to eat human flesh. Porisada finally realized and pursued the path of virtue.</br></br>Kakawin Sutasoma underwent various modifications that were adapted to the conditions at the time of its preparation. Mpu Tantular emphasizes in this kakawin that Shivaistic cult (which worships Shiva as the highest, - one of the religious paths in Hinduism) is actually not different from Buddhism. It seems that, due to the influence of Indochina culture, Shiva Buddha cult emerged in the Archipelago. This philosophy is not found in India, the country of their origin.und in India, the country of their origin.)
  • Wrespati (Wrihaspati) Tattwa  + ([EN] Lontar Wrihaspati tattwa is one of th[EN] Lontar Wrihaspati tattwa is one of the lontar texts which becomes the source of belief of the Hindu community in Bali. Actually, this palm-leaf text is a Sanskrit text that is thought to originate from the tenth century. Possibly, this Sanskrit text is also a copy of more authentic Puranas. The Sanskrit text in Wrespati Tattwa consists of 74 verses and each verse is given a translation and commentary in ancient Javanese language. Such system has been common since the reign of King Dharmawangsa in Panjalu. Therefore, this palm-leaf text was probably translated into ancient Javanese around that era.</br></br>Wrespati (Wrihaspati) was a great rsi who became a teacher of the gods. He is a brahmana who rules Planet Jupiter. Therefore, if Planet Jupiter approaches the moon, Hindus consider it a good day to start learning spiritual knowledge. In Wrespati Tattwa, there is a dialog between Rsi Wrihaspati and Lord Shiva, the ruler of Mount Kailasa. The content of the dialog includes the existence of cosmic consciousness or cetana, and cosmic darkness or acetana.</br></br>Cetana and acetana cause various types of differences in the universe. Cetana and acetana also cause an increase and deterioration of the mind. Because of increased awareness, humans reach higher planets after death, which is known as swargaloka (heavens). Conversely, when human consciousness degenerates, they sink into terrible planets called naraka (hell). So, heaven and hell are on other planets, not on Earth.</br></br>Many people mistakenly interpret the teachings of Wrespati Tattwa and conclude that heaven and hell only exist in the mind. This is a wrong conclusion. In fact, if the text of Wrespati Tattwa is interpreted more deeply, the mind is cause of humans’ going to heaven, hell or achieve liberation. The mind binds man in the chains of desires, and without intelligence and knowledge, man will be made degenerated by his own desires.</br></br>Lontar Wrespati Tattwa also teaches about how to achieve liberation. According to this text, liberation can only be achieved if one is freed from illusions. Illusion means to think that he is a gross body and think that this material nature is his eternal abode. Such awareness can only be achieved by a process called yoga. Yoga does not mean merely gymnastic movements. Yoga means connecting the mind with spiritual awareness.necting the mind with spiritual awareness.)
  • Yadnya Prakerti  + ([EN] Most of the procedures for making off[EN] Most of the procedures for making offerings in Bali come from Yadnya Prakerti Scripture. This scripture is one of the most important ones for Saratis. A sarati is a person in charge of making banten (offerings) in various types of ceremonies. The leader of the Saratis is called Tapini or Tarpini, who is usually a woman. Tapini is also a title for a priest's wife who has knowledge and skills in making many types of offerings. In Balinese belief, the Tapinis are supervised by Bhatari Durga.</br></br>Lontar Yadnya Prakerti contains many strict rules regarding procedures for making offerings. The most important thing is the ethics and cleanliness of people who make the offerings. According to this scripture, not any person are allowed to make offerings. Because banten is an offering to God and the demigods, the process of making it must be pure.</br></br>The materials used to make offerings must be natural and disposable. Banten should not be made of plastic materials, because Hindu people are familiar with the concepts of purity (sukla) and defilement (cemer). Therefore, according to the essence of Lontar Yadnya Prakerti, offerings to God and the demigods must be clean, fresh and pure.</br></br>There are some basic ethics for a Sarati according to Lontar Yadnya Prakerti. First, a sarati must be clean and pure in body, mind and words. Secondly, Sarati must not forget to give charity to a brahmin (priest). Not only that, a Sarati must ensure that the banten materials are obtained in the right ways.

  • Putru Saji Tarpana  + ([EN] One of the most interesting ancient t[EN] One of the most interesting ancient texts in Bali is probably Putru Saji Tarpana. If you have used GPS as a guide, then Putru Saji Tarpana is a collection of directions for the spirits of people who have died. 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. Food ingredients and water offered to the spirits of the dead aims to give them a new body in the new nature, but not to wash away their sins.w nature, but not to wash away their sins.)
  • Banawa Sekar  + ([EN] One of the shortest kakawins is Banaw[EN] One of the shortest kakawins is Banawa Sekar, which is commonly called Banawa Sekar Tanakung because it was written by Mpu Tanakung in 1351 AD.

Narration in Sabha Parwa begins with the invitation of the five Pandavas to Hastinapur to play dice. Hastinapur is located about 45 minutes from Delhi, so the distance is not too far. Keep in mind that all events in the Mahabharata are real. 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.

He came to Bali and became an advisor to the Balinese kingdom in Waturenggong era.

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. The most important part of Adi Parwa is the story of the appearance of Sri Krishna, God Almighty, into this mortal world to speak the Bhagavad-gita which is considered one of the most important Vedic scriptures for Hindus.</br></br>At the time of Dharmawangsa reign in the Panjalu kingdom, Adi Parwa was translated into ancient Javanese together with other parwas by the Javanese poets at that time.

Bali, which usually doesn't stop bringing in rupiah coffers to support its people's economy, is now deserted.</br></br>A few months after the COVID-19 pandemic began to subside, there was a lot of buzz in the social media about the hashtag #WorkFromBali. Bali, as the most popular tourist attraction in Indonesia, is slowly starting to rise from the slump of the COVID-19 pandemic.</br></br>Most Indonesian people consider Bali as an elite tourist destination, because the majority of visitors are foreign tourists. Not infrequently Indonesian people also think that the price of admission to tourism and the price of food at the place to eat is also high (by the standards of foreign tourists).</br></br>Seeing the situation of the COVID-19 pandemic which is still uncertain, it is better for the Bali government to start moving to carry out "Rebranding Bali" for domestic tourists. Because they are considered the safest and most sustainable, to keep the economy in Bali alive and spinning.</br></br>There are several ways that the Balinese government can do to invite local and domestic tourists to visit Bali:</br>1. Ensure that Bali is a safe place during the Covid-19 pandemic, by showing that all frontline Bali tourism has been vaccinated and maintaining proper health protocols;</br>2. Invite influencers to advertise Bali. The hashtag #WorkFromBali seems to be very good and powerful to be echoed again;</br>3. Recalculate the highest price specifically for local and domestic tourists, such as the price of tourist entrance tickets, lodging prices, food prices, and so on, by adjusting the socio-economic conditions of the Indonesian people.</br>4. Provide understanding and training for the frontline Bali tourism, to treat local and domestic tourists in the same way as treating foreign tourists.</br></br>Hopefully Bali's economy will get better.

Talking about the land environment that has been converted into a tourist spot, of course there are many daily activities carried out to produce plastic waste for society, this is what will become Bali's next problem. The existence of rubbish in Bali is very sad and gets very little attention, this is what creates big dangers, for example: floods, dengue fever and others. Moreover, as has recently been reported, the rubbish bins or Suwung landfills in Bali are very full and cause fires, giving rise to smoke pollution which causes disease. Are we all willing to live and do activities in dirty places? Of course, many of you are reluctant to live in a dirty place. </br></br>Happy attendees, if I conclude it is related to the problems in Bali, so that Balinese leaders can provide solutions related to problems: the transfer of land or the environment to become tourist attractions and the rampant waste which has not received special attention from the government. Based on these problems, if we don't work together from now on as the front guard, it is certain that the island of Bali will gradually collapse.

We often encounter shadow puppet performances during religious events in Bali, namely during works or piodalan (rahinan in Bali). Hinduism is usually held at religious events that tell the stories of figures such as the Pandawa or Ramayana stories and the stories of other figures. Besides that, wayang kulit can also be used as an entertainment show that often tells about issues in society and tells something that is educational. Wayang kulit is one of the Balinese cultures that is thick with stories of educational figures, but nowadays they are fading because they are rarely performed as entertainment. We, as a generation in Bali, have to maintain the culture of staging shadow puppets to preserve one of our cultures, namely wayang kulit, so we need to protect it by introducing wayang kulit to the wider community by frequently performing it at every social event so that wayang kulit becomes a great entertainment. of interest to the general public.

  • Preserving and Modernizing Balinese Culture Before Maligia Marebu Bumi  + (50 years later. Bali will be welcoming its50 years later.

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. So, what extraordinary thing will you do today to keep harmony?y thing will you do today to keep harmony?)

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. In addition, currently, each tourist spot must prepare health protocol equipment so that anyone who wants to travel to these tourist attractions still pays attention to health protocols to prevent the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic. Hopefully, the pandemic can disappear soon, the world will return to normal, and Bali tourism can rise and stand strong.nd Bali tourism can rise and stand strong.)

There are sacred types of wood that can only be used to build holy places and may not be used for ordinary building materials.</br></br>The story in this lontar begins with a king named Pratipa who ruled in the land of Janantaka. The king had five ministers namely Matwa, Rangga, Tumenggung, Arya and Kadeyan. In addition, he had five other officials, namely Punggawa, Manca, Perbekel, Pecalang, Kelihan Banjar, and Kasinoman. They were all attacked by a plague of leprosy which could not be cured by any means. It is said that this plague was originated from Lord Shiva who displeased King Pratipa because the king had made an offense.</br></br>King Pratipa then sent Matwa to go to Lord Dharma in heaven to ask for healing. According to Lord Dharma, the entire kingdom had to be moved from Janantaka to Wanapringga. Dewa Dharma then gave them purification for their ailments. However, this purification meant that they would all be dissolved and be reborn into trees.</br></br>All types of trees originating from the king, Arya, Rangga, Demung, Tumenggung, pecalang, Perbekel, kliyan and kasinoman cannot be used for building holy buildings because they had previously been affected by leprosy (known as “cukil daki” or “ila” disease). The trees that are considered contaminated include the Bengkulitan, Taru Brokan (deformed tree due to being eaten by pests), Embud Hati tree, Soca Menengan Sunduk tree, and Soca Nyuwun Lambang tree.</br></br>This lontar can be referred to as a simple botanical taxonomic palm-leaf manuscript centered on local trees that grew in Bali in the past. There are also Brahmin tree class and Taru Sari tree class. Both types of trees can be used as sacred building materials. There are also jempini, bayur and bentawa trees belonging to the taru sakama-kama class, which can be used for any purpose.</br></br>Apart from the types of trees, Lontar Aji Janantaka also describes types of fragrant flowers that can be used for ceremonies.

This lontar is closely related to the Subak organization, which is thought to have existed since the ninth century. Within the Subak organization, there are many special ceremonies for rice starting from before planting to after harvest.
