Tri Hita Karana Assesment in Tanah Lot Bali PDF Print E-mail

Active ImageToday at Tanah Lot Tourism Object will held assesment of Tri Hita Karana Award. Tanah Lot Tourism Object is one tourism object in Bali which always follow this competition. Tanah Lot Tourism Object already have gold medal twice for tourism object criteria. THK (tri hita karana) Awards & Accreditations, showing the positive aspects of the program of certification and competition awards for the last three periods, this is now an explanation of its philosophical base. It is important to understand its philosophical and conceptional basis as it is often used as an explanation in claims which interpret the THK concept as having a universal value. Some quarters have equated it with the Hindu religion and propose that it should only be discussed among religious experts. THK has also been perceived as having something of a sacred character. This is probably because of the aspect of THK which deals with interhuman harmony in relation to God (spiritual values).

 

The THK concept is also often confused with tri mandala terminology. Tri mandala is the concept of balance in the division of space into three parts: (1) the main mandala/central part, (2) the madya mandala/middle part, (3) the least-qualified mandala/outer space. This has led people to misunderstand THK and believe that it has just a teritorially physical dimension. This misconception resulted in a very basic fault, i.e. equating parhyangan with temple/family temple/mrajan, while in effect the site of worship is a media of communication with God. On the other hand, home-based (traditional village’s wewidangan or houseyard site) possesses a similar position equal to pawongan.
