Abstract

This study examines the relevance of Hindu ecotheology in responding to ecological crises in the modern era. Environmental degradation, marked by increasing pollution, natural resource exploitation, and shifting lifestyles, reflects an imbalance in the relationship between humans and nature. In Hindu teachings, the concept of Tri Hita Karana emphasizes harmony among humans, God, and the environment as the foundation of a balanced life. This study aims to analyze the concept of ecotheology in Hinduism, explore its relevance to modern ecological crises, and identify the gap between spiritual values and ecological behavior in society. This research employs a qualitative method with a literature study approach, analyzing relevant scholarly sources and secondary data. The findings indicate that Hindu ecotheology provides a strong philosophical foundation for environmental ethics; however, its implementation faces challenges due to socio-economic transformations in modern society. The gap between spiritual values and ecological practices highlights the need to revitalize ecotheological values to make them more contextual and applicable. Therefore, the findings suggest that ecological issues are not merely associated with the existence of environmental values in Hindu teachings, but also with the extent to which these values are internalized and reflected in the ecological practices of modern society.
