Local Wisdom and Harmonization of Community Life in Pegayaman Village, Bali

摘要

Diversity is the reality of Indonesian life, both ethnically, linguistically, culturally, or religiously. In that context, exploring the diversity of Balinese society is certainly very interesting considering that it is not just a "reality", but also a necessity and need. Thus, the pouch of community diversity is an important benchmark because it is like a place for seeding pluralism and an articulate medium of community experimentation in addressing differences. Pegayaman village is a village that is predominantly Muslim in the midst of strong Hindu influences in Bali. This village can be a picture of the life of a pluralistic religious-cultural society. The results of the study show that Pegayaman village has historical uniqueness and local wisdom that have succeeded in sticking cross-faith togetherness nodes in an effort to realize the harmonization of people's lives. Historically, from the very beginning of the founding figures the founders of Pegayaman village were family members who came from two adherents of different religions who later fused, accurated, and gave rise to new cultures as manifestations of local wisdom both in aspects of religion, art, and customs, which were later made the social capital of the current generation to be able to exist in a region that is predominantly Hindu. The current of modernization and globalization, is more or less a concern for the leaders of Pegayaman village to be a factor in eroding the existing local culture and wisdom. Therefore, several curative and preventive measures to save local culture and wisdom have been and will be carried out by religious leaders and the community to maintain the harmony of the internal and external life of the residents of PegayamanVillage.
