Hinduism is the oldest religion beginning in India. The development of
Hinduism spread to the other parts of Asia, one of them is in Southeast Asia.
The development of Hinduism in Indonesian territory is unavoidable because
of the trading which was conducted between the kingdoms in Indonesia and
other kingdoms in Asia. As we already know that Indonesia is a country that
has become one of the places to go travelers who travel on the Silk Road. The
Silk Road is a trade route in Asia where it delivers a lot of goods from the
kingdoms in China to several kingdoms in Asia and sone of them are the
kingdoms in Indonesia and in India. Therefore, we can see the influence of
Chinese cultures and Indian cultures that are deeply embedded in Indonesian
culture. One of the philosophies of Hinduism that still adheres to the people
until today is the philosophy of karma in which Hindus believe that what we
do today has an impact on what we will get in the future, it is a reflection of
what we have planted in previous lives.
