Abstract

Hinduism is such a complex religious teaching that has such a wide range of teachings to learn and will continue to grow with time. One that testifies to the rich teachings of Hinduism is the literary work of religious teachings that is the basis for the execution of every ceremony, behavior, and conduct of human life. One of the most published texts is the text of the god tattwa that contains the teaching of the mekiis ceremony, ngusaba nini, establishes a sanggar tawang, and padagingan at palinggih. The palinggih comes in various shapes to suit the purpose of its construction, but not all of the buildings constructed may be listed as the most palinggih. What might be called the most palinggih is the building that has gone through the sacred stage and given by the spirit into the building. The text of the dewa tattwa is a text that refers to earlier texts of widhitattwa and candi narmada tattwa. It explains how important the blending of the most sophisticated building is. Where the aggregate is a symbol of spirit and an incredible entity that provides a positive vibrational. In practice it isa given material element that can serve as a medium for connecting humans to god.Padagingan is itself composed of components that are wholly meaningful as a symbol of realities that will be intertwined. These symbols are incorporated into a single entity which symbolizes so many manifestations of God that all come from one unthinkable. The symbol provides a basis for confidence in the people who hold such beliefs. The padagingan existence of an outside alloy as a means that brings positive vibrations as well as a medium to increase belief and firmness in carrying out religious teaching.

Abstract

This paper discusses the theological dimensions of the Ngaben death ritual in Bali, focusing on the relationship between Hindu concepts of divinity as outlined in Tattwa texts and the implementation of death rituals. In Hindu theology, the understanding of Brahman, both in its Nirguna (without attributes) and Saguna (with attributes) forms, plays a significant role in shaping the spiritual goals of Balinese Hindus related to eschatology and the attainment of moksha. This research uses a qualitative method with a theological approach. Through an analysis of texts such as Yama Purana Tattwa and Wrhaspati Tattwa, this article examines the meaning and purpose of Ngaben as a ritual for purifying the soul and releasing material elements. This research finds that, although there is a hope for the unification of the soul with God (moksha), the practice of Ngaben is more focused on Bhakti and Karma Marga, which emphasize the existential duality between atman (individual soul) and Brahman, in accordance with the Dvaita Vedanta approach. This indicates a difference between the theological concept of union with God in moksha and its implementation in death rituals in Bali about the importance of the results or conclusions brief.

Abstract

This research discusses one Soroh (lineage group) in Abianbase Village, Gianyar Regency, which has a different worship system compared to other Sorohs in Bali. Therefore, this study aims to map the subsystems that form part of a complete worship system. These include the beliefs held by Soroh Nyuwung, the presence of the Dukuh figure as a religious leader for Soroh Nyuwung, and the structuring of sacred places that serve as media for worship for Soroh Nyuwung in Abianbase Village, Gianyar Regency. This research is qualitative with an ethnographic approach. Data was obtained through observation at the location, interviews with religious leaders of Soroh Nyuwung, and document studies in the form of copies of the Soroh Nyuwung inscription which contains the rules of life for Soroh Nyuwung. The data was analyzed through data reduction, classification, and display processes, as well as conclusion drawing and verification, ultimately being presented descriptively and narratively. The research results show that the Soroh Nyuwung worship system contains three subsystems: belief in Hyang Sinuhun Kidul, who for Soroh Nyuwung is closely affiliated with Bhatara Brahma and is believed to be the ancestor who created the descendants of Soroh Nyuwung. Furthermore, there is the existence of a figure titled Dukuh as the sole leader in every ceremony. Dukuhs are stratified into two types: Dukuh Pengarep and Dukuh Pengabih. There are also sacred places or places of worship for Sang Hyang Sinuhun Kidul called Gedong Sinapa, located in Pura Panti and Sanggah Pamerajan, which are known to have existed since ancient Balinese times. These three subsystems synergize to form a rigid system, creating a systemic pattern of worship by Soroh Nyuwung towards the entity they sanctify, namely Sang Hyang Sinuhun Kidul.

Abstract

Bhuta Yajna is part of the five Yajna ceremonies commonly performed in Bali. Through Bhuta Yajna, humans maintain the balance of nature, which is an implementation of the Tri Hita Karana teaching. One of the texts that discusses Bhuta Yajna is the Aji Swamandala text. The study of Bhuta Yajna in this text is a form of qualitative research that employs hermeneutic theory to analyze it, using the Aji Swamandala text as the primary source, which has been translated and transcribed.The form of Bhuta Yajna in the Aji Swamandala text includes Caru, specifically Caruning Sasih, which serves to harmonize time, and Tawur Kesanga, known as Caruning Palemahan, which functions to harmonize nature and maintain environmental peace.The theological meaning behind the practice of Bhuta Yajna is related to Totemism Theology, which originates from animism—the belief that spirits inhabit the entire world. In this theological perspective, animals and plants are considered suitable substitutes for human sacrifices in the effort to create a harmonious world.

Abstract

This research explores the local Balinese theological dimensions contained in the Tutur Gong Besi text. Utilizing a qualitative approach with a hermeneutic framework, this study aims to identify the distinctive characteristics of Balinese Theology that differentiate it from normative or mainstream Hindu theology. The primary finding of this research is the concept of "metapsychosis of God," where Bhatara Dalêm, as the supreme divine entity, is not transcendent-static but continuously moves and manifests in 21 different loci—ranging from sacred spaces like temples to profane spaces like kitchen utensils—under various identities and titles. This concept is deeply rooted in an animistic substrate shaped by Balinese agrarian culture. Furthermore, the text reveals a cyclic eschatological construction that positions heaven—rather than moksa—as the temporary destination of the soul before undergoing rebirth (punarbhawa) after a 21-year period. The findings confirm that Balinese Theology is an autonomous, distinctive, and authentic theological system born from the ecological and historical context of Balinese society.

Abstract

This study examines the phenomenon of the erosion of knowledge authority in contemporary society, particularly within the post-truth era characterized by the weakening legitimacy of expertise and the growing dominance of public opinion shaped by emotion, identity, and personal preference. Scientific authority, which has traditionally been grounded in rationality, systematic methodology, and empirical verification, is increasingly questioned, especially in strategic issues such as public health, climate change, and digital technology. This research employs a qualitative approach through philosophical and epistemological analysis to identify the factors contributing to the delegitimization of scientific authority. The findings indicate that the erosion of knowledge authority is influenced by two primary dimensions: internal and external factors. Internal factors include cognitive biases, logical fallacies, and psychological tendencies that were classically anticipated in Francis Bacon’s concept of idols. External factors encompass the transformation of the digital landscape, social media algorithms, the attention economy, weak journalistic practices, and low levels of media literacy. The interaction between these factors creates a condition in which popularity often replaces credibility, and emotional narratives exert greater influence than rational argumentation. This study concludes that the crisis of scientific authority is not merely a failure of experts, but a broader epistemological problem embedded within the social and cultural structures of digital modernity. Therefore, strengthening critical literacy, revitalizing ethical scientific communication, and deep philosophical reflection are necessary steps toward restoring public trust in knowledge grounded in scientific methods.
