NON VERBAL COMMUNICATION MEANS OF PROVIDING HINDU'S PEOPLE (CASE STUDY: HARASSMENT OF HINDU CULTURAL SYMBOLS BY YOUNG HINDU GENERATIONS THROUGH FALLING STARS CHALLENGE)

Sari

Hindus in Bali are guided by their teachings known as the Three Basic Frameworks of
Hindu religion, namely Tattwa (philosophy), Susila (ethics), and Ritual (ceremony), all three of
which are inseparable entities. Until now Hinduism has developed and has a very broad influence
on
all
aspects
of
human
life,
so
that
in
its
implementation
Hindus
give
birth
to
various
forms
of
culture
that
contain
values
of
religious
teachings.
Cultural
identity
as
a
form
(identity
is
being)
is
a
reflection
of
Balinese
people
who
still
maintain
and
preserve
the
traditions
of
Hindus
in
the
form
of
symbols
of
upakara.
The
development
of
communication
technology
certainly
raises
a
variety
of
community
responses.
There
are
positive
and
some
negative
depending
on
the
point
of
view
when
looking
at
it.
Along
with
technological
developments,
new
media
or
new
media
emerged,
the
internet.
The
use
of
social
media
as
the
means
of
communication
is
in
line
with
the
assumptions
of
the
theory
of
Computer
Mediated
Communication
(CMC).
Not
long
ago,
social
media
was
attacked
by
the
falling
stars
challenge
culture.
This
culture
describes
someone

who is falling down but still exists. The young generation of Bali enthusiastically
followed the falling stars challenge. Some even made a challenge by wearing traditional clothes
and around them there were canang, banten, and kemben scattered about. The meanings of the
means of worship of Hindus include Banten gebogan or pajengan, this form of offerings in the
form of fruits and food arranged vertically. Banten is usually upheld by Balinese women then
placed in temples in a series of ceremonies. Canang is an elaboration of the vedic language
through its symbols, namely the canang pedestal is flat, as a symbol of ardha candra, whereas
if it is covered with tamas it is called windhu. Pura as well as temples which are symbols of the
cosmos or heavenly nature, the temple is a sacred place of worship for Balinese Hindus. Falling
stars challenge nonverbal communication has a code for using a number of behaviors to convey
meaning. Symbols in the form of canang, sesayut, banten, fruits, and other facilities are sacred
symbols of Hindus. So it is not logical to use jokes and can make kapiambeng (calamity). Because
in
the
means
of
upakara
the
sacred
symbol
contains
letters.
The
location
selection
is
in
the
holy
area
which
is
very
sacred
by
Hindus
in
Bali.
