TRI KAYA PARISUDHA SEBAGAI STRATEGI KULTURAL DALAM PENGENDALIAN BANJIR DI BALI

Abstract

The flood phenomenon that is increasingly hitting various areas in Bali indicates an imbalance between humans and nature. In the context of Balinese Hindu culture, an ecological crisis like this is not only understood as a physical problem, but also as a result of the weakening of human moral and spiritual values ​​towards the environment, one of which is throwing rubbish carelessly, causing floods and damaging the environment. This paper aims to examine the Tri Kaya Parisudha teachings of purity of thought (manacika), words (wacika), and actions (kayika) as a cultural strategy in controlling floods in Bali. The method used is a descriptive qualitative approach through literature study, and Library Research. This method is carried out by reading and analyzing various specific sources.The results of this paper show that the application of manacika parisudha forms ecological awareness, wacika parisudha strengthens public communication that fosters environmental awareness, and kayika parisudha is realized through concrete actions such as preserving rivers and subak. Tri Kaya Parisudha functions as ecological ethics and strategy culture that balances the relationship between humans and nature (Tri Hita Karana). These values ​​strengthen local culture-based flood control in Bali.
