TUMPEK PENGATAG AS ENVIRONMENTAL PRESERVATION

“TUMPEK PENGATAG AS ENVIRONMENTAL PRESERVATION”

Indonesia is an archipelago consisting of many islands and has various tribes, languages, customs or what we often call the culture of one of the islands of Bali. Cultural diversity in Bali is a proof that Indonesia is a country rich in culture. We cannot deny whether regional culture is a more global main factor, which we usually call national culture. So, on the basis of all forms of regional culture will greatly affect the national culture, as well as the culture of the local; will be very well-behaved towards local culture. So the cultural diversity of Bali custom makes Bali become famous with its cultural uniqueness. Culture is a very valuable wealth because in addition to the characteristics of a region also become a symbol of the personality of a nation or region. Various kinds of Balinese culture are our predecessors. Since culture is the richness and characteristic of a region, then maintaining, caring and preserving culture is an obligation of every individual, in other words culture becomes a wealth that must be maintained and preserved by each tribe (Wikipedia, 2017).

Bali has many unique but sacred traditions, such as Tumpek Pengatag celebration, Tumpek pengatag is often called Tumpek bubuh / tumpek wariga, Tumpek pengatag is believed by the Hindu people as the day of environmental preservation, where Hindu people believe that the feast day can neutralize the universe especially the environment to become more sustainable, fertile and can increase income from nature.

In every Saniscara Kliwon Wariga, Hindus always present the offerings to Sanghyang Sangkara as the God of all plants. On this day set and given the name Tumpek Pengarah, Tumpek Penguduh / uduh, Tumpek Pengatag, Tumpek Bubuh by Hindus is a spark of their heart that deeply describes his love and affection to the plants. Since Hindus realize that in living there life in this world cannot stand alone (individual) but always need someone else as a friend to navigate their life up to the ultimate goal, then that human is called as a social creature. Since humans always need other people as friends then came the concept in Hinduism called Tri Hita Karana which lexically means three causes of well-being. (Tri = three, Hita = prosperous, Karana = cause). In essence, Tri Hita Karana contains understanding of three causes of welfare is sourced from the harmony of the relationship between: Man with his God. man with his natural environment, and man with his neighbor (Wiana, 2005).

Then, human relations with the environment arise Hindu thinking to be established as a feast called Tumpek Pengatag or Tumpek Uduh. In the acclaimed Tumpek Penguduh is Sang Hyang Shiva as Bhatara Sangkara as the ruler of plants, which causes plants to multiply, leaf, flower, fruitful fruit in accordance with its usefulness. Performing worship addressed to Bhatara Sangkara then used the object is the plants most closely related to humans used in the necessities of everyday life such as: coconut tree, mango tree, wani tree, durian tree, guava tree and so on. This day reminds the man that the feast of Galungan will come in 25 days, and then all the preparations to welcome and celebrate the feast of Galungan have begun. The aim of the Hindus to raise the ceremony today is to express gratitude to Ida Sang Hyang Widhi Wasa in the manifestation as Bhatara Sangkara that he has created the plants and begged for them to breed well and be useful to humans. Simultaneously also pleaded for good and many fruitful plants so that when Galungan approaches to be used as a means of offering ceremony in Galungan feast. In general, this ceremony is done in the yard / plantation, moor that many maintained trees that are useful for human life (Murdaka, 2015).

Tumpek pengatag is the decline of Hyang Ciwa to maintain the harmony of life in the world. Celebration of tumpek wariga is 25 days before Galungan Day aiming to the tree / grow plants that exist around us are expected to meet the needs of his people, like growing plants, leaves and flowers. In Hindu conception, when Tumpek Pengatag presented offerings to Ida Sang Hyang Widhi Wasa in manifestation as Sangkara, the Lord of Plant Rulers concreted through a tree ceremony. Indeed, according to the Balinese literary tradition, which causes the living plants and yields to humans, is Hyang Sangkara. Therefore, thanksgiving and respect for the Sangkara Hyang must be done by loving all kinds of plants.

Celebration of Tumpek Pengatag Day teaches mankind that we must be grateful for the harmony that helps us to live in the realm of life now. Respecting and appreciating the earth and its inherent, especially the existing plants, signals and profound meaning that humans love and cherish nature and the environment that has contributed to sustaining life and livelihood. In Tumpek Pengatag, the momentum of love and affection to nature is directed to the plants. How big the role of plants in giving life to mankind. Almost all the necessities of human life are sourced from plants.

Living things come from food. Food comes from plants. Plants come from rain. The rain comes from yadnya. Yadnya is karma. Without herbs, all living beings can not live their lives, because the basic ingredients of animal and human foods are plants. The existence of plants is yadnya from earth and heaven to all living things (Putri, 2009).

Humans as the greediest creatures often do unfair to the balance of life of these plants. To cultivate a fair and loving attitude to the plants, Hindus begged the guidance of God Sangkara as a manifestation of the Almighty God. Therefore, Hindus in India have "Sangkara Puja Day," while Hindus in Bali have Tumpek Wariga as the day to worship the God of Sangkara.

The outer packaging of the Sangkara Puja celebrations in India and the Tumpek Wariga day in Bali is certainly different, but the meaning is no different. Both days as a sacred ritual process to remind mankind to always ask God's guidance in developing and protecting plants as the most important source of food for living beings.

In celebration or idol often spoken by the ancestors is "Nini Nini, buin selae dina galungan. Mabuah apang nged ... nged ... nged. "As I Made Wita uttered while knocking a machete in the right hand on a flowering guava tree. He gave a little wound to the stem. The same thing in cempaka, belimbing, srikaya, kenanga, and a number of other plants in the yard at the celebration of Tumpek Wariga.

"Grandma-Grandma, 25 days Galungan. Be fruitful for dense ... bushy ... bushy ..., "so meaning Balinese sentence is always spoken on this celebration. That day thanksgiving to God for the fertility of plants to grow well and produce fruit or dense flowers, (Erviani, 2017).

Thus, in truth, the celebration of Tumpek Pengatag day gives a deep gesture and meaning so that people love and love nature and the environment that has contributed to sustain life and livelihood. In Tumpek Pengatag, the momentum of love and affection to nature is directed to the plants. How big the role of plants in giving life to mankind. Almost all the necessities of human life are sourced from plants, starting from food, clothing to the board.

So that, Pengumpagg Tumpek ceremony is a local wisdom of Bali that is beneficial for the preservation of the environment, especially in the preservation of plants. Besides, Tumpek Pengatag ceremony is also closely related to the value of Ecology, Social society and economic value. In this paper, the author expects that the next generation or the youth in Bali and the Indonesian people in general are able to preserve local wisdom in each region so as not to be lost swallowed by the times. It is expected local wisdom is used with the best to support human life in the future.

 “TUMPEK PENGATAG AS ENVIRONMENTAL PRESERVATION”

Indonesia is an archipelago consisting of many islands and has various tribes, languages, customs or what we often call the culture of one of the islands of Bali. Cultural diversity in Bali is a proof that Indonesia is a country rich in culture. We cannot deny whether regional culture is a more global main factor, which we usually call national culture. So, on the basis of all forms of regional culture will greatly affect the national culture, as well as the culture of the local; will be very well-behaved towards local culture. So the cultural diversity of Bali custom makes Bali become famous with its cultural uniqueness. Culture is a very valuable wealth because in addition to the characteristics of a region also become a symbol of the personality of a nation or region. Various kinds of Balinese culture are our predecessors. Since culture is the richness and characteristic of a region, then maintaining, caring and preserving culture is an obligation of every individual, in other words culture becomes a wealth that must be maintained and preserved by each tribe (Wikipedia, 2017).

Bali has many unique but sacred traditions, such as Tumpek Pengatag celebration, Tumpek pengatag is often called Tumpek bubuh / tumpek wariga, Tumpek pengatag is believed by the Hindu people as the day of environmental preservation, where Hindu people believe that the feast day can neutralize the universe especially the environment to become more sustainable, fertile and can increase income from nature.

In every Saniscara Kliwon Wariga, Hindus always present the offerings to Sanghyang Sangkara as the God of all plants. On this day set and given the name Tumpek Pengarah, Tumpek Penguduh / uduh, Tumpek Pengatag, Tumpek Bubuh by Hindus is a spark of their heart that deeply describes his love and affection to the plants. Since Hindus realize that in living there life in this world cannot stand alone (individual) but always need someone else as a friend to navigate their life up to the ultimate goal, then that human is called as a social creature. Since humans always need other people as friends then came the concept in Hinduism called Tri Hita Karana which lexically means three causes of well-being. (Tri = three, Hita = prosperous, Karana = cause). In essence, Tri Hita Karana contains understanding of three causes of welfare is sourced from the harmony of the relationship between: Man with his God. man with his natural environment, and man with his neighbor (Wiana, 2005).

Then, human relations with the environment arise Hindu thinking to be established as a feast called Tumpek Pengatag or Tumpek Uduh. In the acclaimed Tumpek Penguduh is Sang Hyang Shiva as Bhatara Sangkara as the ruler of plants, which causes plants to multiply, leaf, flower, fruitful fruit in accordance with its usefulness. Performing worship addressed to Bhatara Sangkara then used the object is the plants most closely related to humans used in the necessities of everyday life such as: coconut tree, mango tree, wani tree, durian tree, guava tree and so on. This day reminds the man that the feast of Galungan will come in 25 days, and then all the preparations to welcome and celebrate the feast of Galungan have begun. The aim of the Hindus to raise the ceremony today is to express gratitude to Ida Sang Hyang Widhi Wasa in the manifestation as Bhatara Sangkara that he has created the plants and begged for them to breed well and be useful to humans. Simultaneously also pleaded for good and many fruitful plants so that when Galungan approaches to be used as a means of offering ceremony in Galungan feast. In general, this ceremony is done in the yard / plantation, moor that many maintained trees that are useful for human life (Murdaka, 2015).

Tumpek pengatag is the decline of Hyang Ciwa to maintain the harmony of life in the world. Celebration of tumpek wariga is 25 days before Galungan Day aiming to the tree / grow plants that exist around us are expected to meet the needs of his people, like growing plants, leaves and flowers. In Hindu conception, when Tumpek Pengatag presented offerings to Ida Sang Hyang Widhi Wasa in manifestation as Sangkara, the Lord of Plant Rulers concreted through a tree ceremony. Indeed, according to the Balinese literary tradition, which causes the living plants and yields to humans, is Hyang Sangkara. Therefore, thanksgiving and respect for the Sangkara Hyang must be done by loving all kinds of plants.

Celebration of Tumpek Pengatag Day teaches mankind that we must be grateful for the harmony that helps us to live in the realm of life now. Respecting and appreciating the earth and its inherent, especially the existing plants, signals and profound meaning that humans love and cherish nature and the environment that has contributed to sustaining life and livelihood. In Tumpek Pengatag, the momentum of love and affection to nature is directed to the plants. How big the role of plants in giving life to mankind. Almost all the necessities of human life are sourced from plants.

Living things come from food. Food comes from plants. Plants come from rain. The rain comes from yadnya. Yadnya is karma. Without herbs, all living beings can not live their lives, because the basic ingredients of animal and human foods are plants. The existence of plants is yadnya from earth and heaven to all living things (Putri, 2009).

Humans as the greediest creatures often do unfair to the balance of life of these plants. To cultivate a fair and loving attitude to the plants, Hindus begged the guidance of God Sangkara as a manifestation of the Almighty God. Therefore, Hindus in India have "Sangkara Puja Day," while Hindus in Bali have Tumpek Wariga as the day to worship the God of Sangkara.

The outer packaging of the Sangkara Puja celebrations in India and the Tumpek Wariga day in Bali is certainly different, but the meaning is no different. Both days as a sacred ritual process to remind mankind to always ask God's guidance in developing and protecting plants as the most important source of food for living beings.

In celebration or idol often spoken by the ancestors is "Nini Nini, buin selae dina galungan. Mabuah apang nged ... nged ... nged. "As I Made Wita uttered while knocking a machete in the right hand on a flowering guava tree. He gave a little wound to the stem. The same thing in cempaka, belimbing, srikaya, kenanga, and a number of other plants in the yard at the celebration of Tumpek Wariga.

"Grandma-Grandma, 25 days Galungan. Be fruitful for dense ... bushy ... bushy ..., "so meaning Balinese sentence is always spoken on this celebration. That day thanksgiving to God for the fertility of plants to grow well and produce fruit or dense flowers, (Erviani, 2017).

Thus, in truth, the celebration of Tumpek Pengatag day gives a deep gesture and meaning so that people love and love nature and the environment that has contributed to sustain life and livelihood. In Tumpek Pengatag, the momentum of love and affection to nature is directed to the plants. How big the role of plants in giving life to mankind. Almost all the necessities of human life are sourced from plants, starting from food, clothing to the board.

So that, Pengumpagg Tumpek ceremony is a local wisdom of Bali that is beneficial for the preservation of the environment, especially in the preservation of plants. Besides, Tumpek Pengatag ceremony is also closely related to the value of Ecology, Social society and economic value. In this paper, the author expects that the next generation or the youth in Bali and the Indonesian people in general are able to preserve local wisdom in each region so as not to be lost swallowed by the times. It is expected local wisdom is used with the best to support human life in the future.
