Summary: | The purpose of this research was to investigate the concept of well-being among the Balinese Gandhian and the processes needed to reach such condition. The participants were the Balinese Gandhian form Gedong Gandhi Ashram and the Ashram Gandhi Putri. Ethnographic perspective and phenomenological approach were applied in this study. Results reveal mokshartham jagadhita as a Balinese indigenous concept of well-being, referring to the physical and psycho-spiritual well-being which consists of: suka tan mewali duka (non-dual happiness), shaantih (peace), and harmony. This condition can be reached by the fulfillment of the physical, social, and psycho-spiritual needs, which transforms the personality into the ideal state of sthita-pradnya. The search for meaning was also involved during the attainment of this state. The aforementioned process involves the cognitive, affective, behavioral, and transcendental dimensions. The concept of mokshartham jagaditha is compared with the Western concept of well-being as well as with other concepts from Eastern traditions.
