Living Tri Hita Karana Part 3: The Divine
The 3 Causes of Harmony and Joy
With ​Tjokorda Gde Mahatma Kerthyasa
Bali represents one of the few intact indigenous cultures where the ancient cosmology is actually lived in everyday life. It is an immensely complex culture but can be approached in a concise way through initially understanding the 3 basic principles that form its core: Tri Hita Karana.
This talk is part 3 of a 3 part series on the cosmology of harmony in Bali. Tjok Gde Kerthyasa will explore the 3rd principle: the relationship that exists between humans and the Divine and all manifestations in the realm of Spirit. In this talk he will explain the Balinese art of prayer understood from a personal perspective and the importance of ritual in the Balinese culture that can be translated into the personal ritual of people from any culture, anywhere.
