Tri Hita Karana Doctrine

Tri Hita Karana Doctrine In Hinduism

Tri Hita Karana
Tri Hita Karana is etymologically derived from the word Tri meaning three, Hita means happiness, well-being, and Karana means cause. So Tri Hita Karana means three causes of happiness or well-being. This is manifested in the harmonious relationship between :

Harmonious relationship with God Almighty

How do we establish a harmonious relationship with God ? If you can, just do not see ? God simply can not be seen but can be felt . A relationship with God , should not meet or see him . That's impossible when God in a transcendent state , let alone awidya covering so thick in us . Then establish a connection with what ? By understanding and implementing its teachings. When associated with Panca yajna , in terms of a relationship with God , including God of Yajna Sincere sacrifice to the gods , such as celebrating the feast of Saraswati, Siwaratri, Prayer, and so on.

Harmonious relationship between humans

Humans should establish a harmonious relationship with others, in order to create a harmonious living, peaceful and prosperous. In Hinduism we know Tat tvam Asi, the slogan that should be used as the foundation for a relationship with each other. When others hurt, in fact it's the same with self- harm. If all people think so, of course, peace will be created. When associated with Panca yajna relationships with others can be realized by yajna rsi, Pitra Yajna and Yajna to human, such as giving to the Sulinggih Punia, from infants to the wedding ceremony, honoring elders, and so on.

Harmonious human relationship with the natural environment

Human life on earth is not free from entanglement with the natural environment. Reciprocal relationship between humans and the environment will not stop when the man was alive. But sometimes greedy human nature makes nature suffer. Exploitation of nature on a large - scale without thinking about its consequences. Many examples of the result of irresponsible exploitation, as global warming, Lapindo mud, and so on. Therefore be. Therefore, a harmonious relationship with the environment we should do. When associated with Panca yajna relationship with the environment can be realized by Bhuta Yajna, such mecaru, segahan, and so on.


The third relationship has unified whole and interconnected. Take, for example when making piodalan temple / other Yajna ceremony. In the event either consciously or not we have done this three relationships. Relationship with God, it is clear Yajna was addressed to God. The second relationship with humans, when we ngayah 's where this relationship occurs , help each other to complete the task, communicate well and develop a sense of kinship . And the last one relationship with the environment , it is clear there mecaru therein.
