The Hindu New Year was established on March 9th, 2016 then followed by a

special ritual that called Catur Brata Penyepian. In regarding a study that was
not all people could do Catur Brata Penyepian, therefore formulated some
question that was discussed in this article: [1] How the society ability in
implementing brata penyepian. 2). How the implementation process of brata
penyepian. [3] What the implications of brata penyepian for society
behavior? This article was applied Snow Boll method for collecting the data
that involved a key informant. The research location was in Bali province, as
well as “Sekular” theory was used that focused on "Hope and Mercy,”
(Andrew, 1998). There were 135 informants, who could carry Amati Geni
were 20 people (14.81%), who did not do Lelungan were 31 people
(22.96%), who could do Lelungan were 36 (26.67%) and were able to do
Amati Karya 48 people (35.56%). Amati Geni was implemented about
14.48%, was able to perform up to expectations ninth level implied by
Andrew Greeley. Next, that was 22.96% that not do Lelungan i.e. it had
reached seven conditions by Andrew Greeley, who could not perform
Lelanguan about 26.67%, i.e. merely able to perform five conditions that
were set, and who were able to implement Amati Karya about 35.56% i.e.
merely could do three conditions. Its implication meant a lower percentage
(%) achieved by someone doing Brata Penyepian indicated that the
expectation of the peace would be higher, and conversely the higher
percentage (%) in doing Amati Karya, it is shown that the expectation for
peace was lower.
