The beauty of the Hindu tradition in Indonesia
If you travel to countries that have a Hindus, then you will find a Hindu who did not seem the same with Hindu rituals and traditions in India, then we should be grateful for the Hindu has proved as a doctrine and a universal religion.
The beauty of Hinduism outside India has unique characteristics, such as the architecture of the Hindu temple. You will also find the uniqueness in ceremony, ritual, and tradition, and even in dance, music, and a variety of branches of art and world culture. If you are an Indian, someday you need to travel from India to Nepal, Malaysia, and Indonesia, and make sure you visit the island of Bali. Island of the Gods you will discover the beauty of the Hindu temple or Pura (Balinese to mention Hindu Temple). The same thing you also find on the island of Java, neighboring Bali. The Javanese call Hindu temples as a Candi, for example, Prambanan, Yogyakarta near the Central Java.

Hindu people in Indonesia not only exist in Bali, but also in other areas such as Jakarta (capital of Indonesia), Sumatra, Kalimantan, Sulawesi, Papua and other regions. Hindu tradition and culture in Indonesia were initially grown on the island of Java and developed very great in Bali, and now the community that comes from Bali definitely brings a Hindu tradition and culture to various regions in Indonesia.
On this beautiful occasion, I want to share a video about the beauty of the Balinese Hindu tradition held in Amarta Pura Jati, a Hindu temple in Cinere, South Jakarta. Let's watch this video so that Hindus all over the world will always be proud and grateful to God Almighty, that the Hindu respect for local culture. It also proves that the teachings of Hinduism are very universal and timeless all time.
In addition to the video of Hindu rites and rituals above, I also wanted to share a video of a sacred dance of Bali.
