Kajian Teologi Hindu

Abstract

Dharmawacana is a familiar term. Many people already know what it is, but specifically regarding the meaning of Dharmawacana, many still don't fully understand that Dharmawacana is a system for transmitting Hindu teachings, as established by the Parisadha Hindu Dharma Indonesia (PHDI). The development of Dharmawacana over time has been greatly influenced by developments in society and technology. These developments allow Hindus to learn religious teachings through digital media. Gadgets have become effective tools for accessing religious content anywhere and anytime, as is the case now with some individuals spreading religious teachings through digital platforms such as YouTube, Facebook, TikTok, and others. The problem formulation is as follows: 1). Why is digital Dharmawacana important? 2). How is the content of digital Dharmawacana related to Hindu teachings? 3). How is the implementation of Hindu teachings in Wonosalam District after listening to digital Dharmawacana? The theories used to solve the problem formulation include the following: 1). Phenomenological theory and 2). Religious theory. In this modern era, understanding of religious teachings, even understanding of the value of God in Hinduism, is very little understood, as is the case among modern youth who tend to follow lifestyles as the times develop. With this digital Dharmawacana, the author hopes to increase insight and even knowledge for Hindus in Wonosalam District, and can be an attraction for the community to continue learning about Hinduism which can be used as a guide or guide in carrying out the currents of life.
