PARTICIPANTS”
Bali as one of the island that
has the appeal of the cultural side has many local wisdom that values and
meaning highly respected by the people of Bali. One of the much local wisdom
whose value and meaning is highly esteemed by religious people, Hinduism is the
concept of the teaching of Tri Kaya
Parisudha. The concept of Tri Kaya
Parisudha as one of local wisdom is the philosophy of life to make life
harmonious. Are not human goals coexisting with each other to create a
harmonious atmosphere? Based on the concept of Tri Kaya Parisudha there are three types of activities that must be
controlled and harmonized with each other, namely the activity of the mind (manacika), the activity of words (wacika), and activity deeds (kayika).
Tri Kaya Parisudha comes from the word "Tri" meaning three; "Kaya"
means behavior or deeds, and "Parisudha" which means good, clean,
holy or purified. Tri Kaya Parisudha
means three human behaviors in the form of thoughts, words, and deeds that must
be sanctified. Purely mind, speech, and action are meant to mean good human
behavior or human behavior that should not be polluted with bad behavior. The
three behaviors of thinking, saying, and doing good must always be used as a
guideline especially for Hindus and for mankind in general in daily life, so as
to create a harmonious relationship between man and his environment, man with
his neighbor, and man with great creator.
Tri Kaya Parisudha can also be interpreted as the three basic human
behaviors that must be purified, namely manacika,
wacika, and kayika. Manacika means
good mind, wacika means good word,
and kayika means good deeds. The
existence of a good mind will underlie good words, so that good deeds will be
realized as well. So basically words and deeds originated from the mind. A good
mind will lead people to say or do well. From that principle, the very first
thing that man must control is his mind. Things that affect the mind must
always be preserved, such as the stability of the soul or emotion, the need for
mental health and body, including the need for aesthetics. With a calm soul one
can control his mind so that he can think clearly which will eventually be
triggered in the form of good words and good deeds.
The Vedic Scripture teaches that
humanity abstain from evil and sinfulness and to remove envy. Mankind to always
do dharma, with sweet sayings should and always do good. Man should also always
purify his mind and his Buddha. The statement is the same as taught in Tri Kaya Parisudha that is thinking
well, saying good and doing good. Thinking well, saying good and doing good
become the basis and guide of life for Hindus and for mankind in general, so
that the harmony, tranquility and peace in the life of society can be created
according to the purpose of Hindu religion and the purpose of education in
general, (Nyoman 2007).
Manacika is derived from Sanskrit, derived from the word manana which means thought, so manacika Parisudha is the thought that must be purified. Like envy and
jealousy. Everything begins from the mind, the good mind is the application of
religious values that will ultimately lead one to the path of dharma. The
thought of wavelike ripples that will occasionally appear on the surface and
occasionally will disappear so as good as his mind must be controlled as a step
of control for the good and the glory, the thought which in Sanskrit comes from
the word manana which means thought,
then this thought develops into prayer, so then what is in mind is essentially
a prayer that will ultimately bear fruit.
Wacika comes from the word wacana
which means word, so Wacika Parisudha
is a word that must be purified. Such as being rude, lying, berating, and
slandering others is a bad deed, even more so it is done before the public, in
public. To dare to speak abusively, to criticize the elderly or the elder, words
are utterances that are issued by means of mouth utterances, oral words issued
by mouth should be attempted so that anyone we talk to is not feeling insulted.
Words such as a very sharp knife that can hurt anyone, so therefore control the
word by always saying a good word in order to maintain harmony for others.
Kayika comes from the word craft which means work or do, so Wacika Parisudha is an act that must be
sanctified, Such as, stealing, adultery, and hurting or killing other
creatures. Good and noble behavior rules that should guide human life. A good
action is aimed at fostering harmonious relationships or harmonious
relationships between a person and the living beings, harmonizing harmony
between the family forming the society and the society itself, between one
nation and another and between humans and the natural surroundings. (Darmawan
2015)
With good, holy and righteous
thoughts will bear speech / speech and behavior of the smooth and sacred deeds.
With the thought and the words or words that are subtle and holy will manifest
my actions and good behavior, and true also. Likewise the opposite is the
behavior, speech / words in control by the mind.
The concept of Tri Kaya Parisudha when associated with
education must have a very close relationship. Education today is certainly not
only a numerical is not it? However, it is also associated with the planting of
moral values to form a good and positive character. Educating children to have
a consistent character between what is thought, and what is said then what is
done is something that needs to be trained consistently, disciplined and
sustainable. It is very important for the child to form a child of discourse
(faithful to the word) and satya semaya
(faithful to the promise).
The concept of local wisdom Tri Kaya Parisudha worthy to be used as
a foundation in educating children. The proof of the consummation of value and
meaning in the concept of Tri Kaya
Parisudha has been very much applied in social life in society, that is by
always educating children to think well, then saying good, full of courtesy and
karma, and do good and positive according to rules and norms prevailing in
society to create a safe, comfortable and peaceful atmosphere. Doing good is
also associated with upholding a sense of tolerance and empathy, especially
tolerance among religious people; this is due to the condition of the
Indonesian state rich in ethnic, religious, and intergroup diversity, (Ari,
2016).
In this context why is the child
being the object or target of the application of the concept of Tri Kaya Parisudha? This is due to the
authors' concerns about progress in the field of information technology and
science that is developing at this time. Of course the progress of information
technology and science is very good and has become a necessity in facing the
challenges of globalization, but if the character or mental of the recipient of
the progress of science and information technology is not balanced with a
strong planting of good character values, would certainly reduce the essence
from the progress of science and information technology itself.
The most worrying thing is the
progress of information technology. Information technology that can be anytime
and anywhere accessible through gadgets by the younger generation makes
everything fast, including one of the fastest things to do is make a promise to
then quickly and easily cancel.
If the child has been equipped
with a strong foundation of the concept of Tri Kaya Parisudha, in making all
his decisions the child will be more cautious. Because, early on in the mind of
the child has been embedded attitude to always think good, say good and do
well. And, by educating children with the foot of the concept of Tri Kaya Parisudha can form a child of
"high tech and high touch" in the sense that the child belonging to
the millennial generation is mastering high information technology and balanced
with good and positive characters such as having a sense tolerance, empathy,
honesty, courtesy and other positive attitudes. Therefore, synergy is needed
from the family environment, school environment and community environment to
help fully give the child an understanding related to the concept of Tri Kaya Parisudha. Because, without a
strong foothold on the values of local wisdom, it will form the character of a
child who "high tech, but low touch" means that a child does have a
good knowledge in information technology, but does not have good character,
(Yuliandari, 2017).
Man is a creature of God who has
advantages compared with other creatures. Humans have the advantage of manas or manah. Manas or manah it means mind. The mind is the
essence of everything. Of the three elements of Tri Kaya Parisudha, the mind is the ultimate, which can lead to the
existence of words and deeds. Therefore the mind is the most important to be
controlled. So, essentially humans are creatures that actively think. From that
fact, human beings have two characters or mind traits namely good thoughts and
bad thoughts. A good mind becomes a guide to say and do well, otherwise a bad
thought will lead one to say and do bad things.
Tri Kaya Parisudha is thinking well, saying good, and doing good,
should be done as well as possible. Empirically the reality of human life, we
often encounter two human traits of human beings who behave well and humans who
behave badly. It is also often found in schools, learners who behave well and
learners who behave badly or poorly. Behavior of students who are good or not
good are equally likely to change. Good behavior can be better or can be bad,
otherwise bad behavior can turn out to be good or worse. This can be attributed
to several factors that can support and impede the cultivation of the ethical
values contained in Tri Kaya Parisudha,
(Riko, 2015).
Certainly the parents do not want
their children to be a generation of intelligent but defective people in
behavior. A good character will not only have a good impact on the child, but
the good name of the family will always be well preserved. Therefore, the good
name of the family is not only a responsibility and is determined by one person
only, but determined completely by all parties in the family. Do not let us
live in the middle of the era of "smart phone but dumb people". Do
not let the "thumb" that we use to say other people good through
thumbs up we instead use to spread bad information about and for others.
Hopefully with a firm footing of the value and meaning of the concept of Tri Kaya Parisudha able to make humans
nobler, dignified and character.
