Abstract

The structural form of a gong drama performance is always associated with the musical accompaniment to the performance, namely percussion petegak, pepeson, pasiatan, and finally pamuput. Followed by the Prologue, which is a panyembrama or introductory words at the start of a drama play, then it starts with Pepeson which is a sign of the appearance of a person or several characters in starting scene by scene in each act. There are pepeson scenes for petangkilan, meseneng-senengan scenes, romance scenes, pasiatan scenes, and pamuput scenes. However, according to the sources who have explained above, the structure of the gong drama performance is uncertain depending on the story being told but still maintains the standard of Balinese gong drama. The characteristics of the punakawan buduh in the Balinese gong drama performance can be divided into two characters, where there is a tough character which characterizes the human nature of being arrogant, arrogant, self-righteous and fierce. There are also soft characters that are inversely proportional to hard characters, soft characters emphasize human traits that are kind, full of empathy, intelligent, and not arrogant. These two characters symbolize different dualities or what is called rwa bhineda, traits that cannot be separated in human traits in general. The aesthetic theory of humor contained in Punakawan Buduh is divided into three parts, the first is the theory of superiority, the second is the theory of incompatibility and the third is the theory of tension. However, during the performance, the Punakawan Buduh characters, without realizing it, were using this third theory when conveying the joke material. Because in general the Punakawan Buduh characters often practice on stage without knowing the theory of humor they are using, but each joke material already contains this theory of humor according to the situation that occurs during the performance of the Balinese gong drama

Abstract

Understanding the teachings of Tutur Wikṣu Pungu in symbolic form is needed to conduct an in-depth study to reveal its meaning. This research aims to examine the symbolic meaning in the text so that it can contribute to Hindus as a whole. This qualitative research uses an interpretative descriptive approach based on Riffaterre's semiotic theory, focusing on symbolic elements. The research method used includes heuristic and hermeneutic reading techniques to explore the deep meaning of the symbols in the text. There are three main discussions in this research. First, the identification of the matrix (main idea) emphasises the importance of asceticism, self-control, and yoga-samadhi as a path to cosmic harmony between humans, nature, and God. Second, the model (symbolic elements), including the symbols of tri bhuvana (three worlds), pa ca mah? bh?ta (five elements of nature), Sang Hyang Aji as sacred knowledge, and guru as spiritual guide. The third variant (philosophical meaning) examines the philosophical meaning of the symbols. This research contributes to the study of Hindu theology by revealing how the teachings in Tutur Wikṣu Pungu can be relevant to religious life in the modern era.

Based on the research results, it was found that the pattern of social differentiation of Balinese Hindu society living in Mataram City in responding to the pace of modernization began with changes in the social structure. These social changes were responded to by the process of classifying society based on rights and obligations according to the field of work they are engaged in. This classification is further related to its functionalization in the practice of religious life, namely concerning its role and position in the social structure

Abstract

In Hinduism, the Pura Piodalan ceremony is an essential ritual that marks the anniversary of the temple and serves as a form of gratitude and an effort to strengthen spiritual relations with God. The implementation of this ceremony requires the readiness of adequate facilities (upakara) and infrastructure. However, research in Palangka Raya City identified a significant knowledge gap among Hindu youth (aged 18-30 years) regarding the meaning and use of these facilities. This gap is triggered by the dominance of the older generation in ngayah activities (mutual cooperation rituals), the lack of interest of the younger generation in complex rituals due to the influence of the environment and technology, and the lack of encouragement and transfer of knowledge from parents. Although efforts to embrace have been made, active participation is still limited because ngayah is based on sincerity. This condition risks causing dissociation between ritual practice and spiritual understanding, threatening the preservation of Hindu cultural and religious values. Therefore, this study emphasizes the urgency of developing effective strategies, such as increasing involvement in ngayah, relevant education, and the use of modern media, for the sustainability of this tradition

Abstract

Abstract The End of Days, commonly known as apocalypse, is a topic widely discussed in every religion. On a large scale involving the universe, it's called cosmic destruction, but on a small scale, like an individual's death, it's referred to as microcosmic destruction. In the Hindu perspective, destruction is seen as pralaya, a condition where everything created returns to merge with its creator. Meanwhile, in the Islamic view, it is called apocalypse (al-Qiyamah or al-Qari’ah). This study aims to compare the concepts of pralaya and kiamat in the Mānava Dharmaśāstra and Surah al-Wāqi’ah. The research uses a descriptive qualitative method with a literature study and a philosophical-hermeneutic approach. This study aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of both concepts. During the research process, three research questions were formulated concerning the interpretation of pralaya in the Mānava Dharmaśāstra, pralaya as a cosmic turning point rather than a final cosmic end, and a comparison of pralaya in the Mānava Dharmaśāstra with kiamat in Surah al-Wāqi’ah. In general, the results show a fundamental similarity: both pralaya and kiamat are depicted as inevitable events that are certain to occur. However, significant differences were found in the purpose, consequences, and narrative focus of these two events. In pralaya, an individual returns to a state of non-activity, ending suffering and the cycle of rebirth without a clear separation between good and evil. Meanwhile, kiamat explicitly divides humanity into two groups: one that will receive rewards in heaven and another that will be punished in hell. The narrative focus of the Mānava Dharmaśāstra is more metaphysical and spiritual, emphasizing the process of returning to the origin, while the narrative of al-Wāqi’ah is more oriented towards moral justice, focusing on rewards and punishments.

Abstract

This study examines the oral tradition of Dukuh Siladri, the Story of a Hermit in Balinese Folklore. The aim is to understand the ethnoecology of the story using content analysis combined with deconstruction tied to radical hermeneutics. The results of the study indicate that the ethnoecology or ethno-Palemahan in the story begins with the idea that nature recognizes three states: heaven (above), hell (below), and a mixed realm between heaven and hell (middle). Humans and other living creatures exist in a mixed realm, thus bound to heaven and hell. The ideal human aspiration is to realize heaven and avoid hell, by obeying religion at the level of thought, speech, and action. This pattern is applied to the relationship between humans and God/gods, guided by ethno-Parhyangan. Another application is to social structures, referring to ethno-Pawongan. In social structures, there are always humans who obey the principles of virtue or vice versa. Humans must side with virtue and at a certain point follow the wanaprastha way of life, namely becoming a hermit in the forest in preparation for realizing heaven in the upper world. The application of religion to human relations with the natural environment is very important. For example, forests consisting of flora and fauna must be treated as friends based on compassion, because they can help humans in times of joy and sorrow. The purity and preservation of the natural environment must be maintained through bhuta yajnya.

Abstract

Students often face challenges in reciting Sanskrit mantras, such as incorrect pronunciation, difficulty adapting to and following proper mantra articulation, and a lack of confidence when leading prayers using Sanskrit mantras. These issues can limit their ability to fully comprehend the essence and spiritual values embedded in Hindu religious practices. This study aims to explore the main factors contributing to students’ difficulties in reciting Sanskrit mantras. A qualitative method was employed, utilizing data collection techniques such as participant observation, unstructured interviews, and documentation. Data were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model, which includes data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that students’ challenges in correctly pronouncing Sanskrit mantras involve phonetic and graphemic aspects, a lack of understanding of mantra meanings, memory-related issues and difficulty in changing habits, as well as psychological factors that weaken learning motivation. These findings highlight the need for a holistic learning approach that encompasses understanding meanings, fostering correct pronunciation through collective practice, and strengthening phonetic awareness both in the learning environment and in daily life.
