may change Balinese’s people life is when they have an event called as
kerauhan. Kerauhan is a term used to
address a certain situation when someone is believed or taken as being
possessed by a soul, other than the soul that has been living that body since
it was born (Swadiana & Putrawan, 2006). There will be some changes
occurred in someone’s life aspect which affects the achievements on their life
by experienced kerauhan. Based on this, researchers wanted to know the picture
of someone’s life-quality who experienced kerauhan.
The qualitative research method with phenomenological approach is used in
this research to describe the aspects of life that got affected someone’s life
who have experienced kerauhan. The data collection that is used in this
research is an in-depth interview and observation which were examined toward 5
Balinese individuals of two categories. Individuals with a kerauhan experience
based on intentional purposes such as ritual purposes, falls under the first
category. While individuals who had an unexpected kerauhan, falls under the
second category.
The result of this research shows that kerauhan doesn’t have a direct
impact on someone’s life quality. But kerauhan can increase or decrease some
aspects of someone’s life which at the end would change that person’s life into
a better or even a disadvantageous one. Detailed result will be discussed under
the context of the aspects of life that are affected by kerauhan.
