However, if in a banjar there are no representatives pemangku to send, then the selected pemangku will be taken from the largest banjar, namely the Tanah Embet banjar.
The number of pemangku at Batu Boong Temple is around 7 pemangku.
The main task of every pemangku at Batu Bolong Temple is to look after the temple and lead the prayers when people come to pray.
Pemangku at Batu Bolong Temple uses a system of alternating guard duty one day per custodian, according to a predetermined schedule.
Based on the number of pemangku who serve in the temple, namely seven people, the division of duty time will be scheduled per day for one pemangku, so in one month each pemangku will serve four times.

evay tvayi nynyatheto asti na karma lipyate Translation:
Someone should be happy to live in this world by working hard for a hundred There is no other way for one's salvation.
An act of selflessness and impartiality distances the doer from attachment.
Preparing Facilities Parking lot.
Because there are more and more pemedek visiting, the parking area outside the temple is not enough to accommodate pemedek vehicles.
Krama Pura administrators created a parking area to the north.
This is also intended for mekemit drivers who bring their vehicles to make them safer.
Funds for creating this parking area received donations from the local government.
But once this place was finished and it was like it is now, the government misused the place as a tourist spot where the general public could freely go there to see the beach views.
There was a dispute between the temple's manners and the surrounding community, especially the traders who forced their way in during odalan.
Even though it is prohibited, they still act like that, they also enter through the parking lot and along the road on the beach.
Construction of Barrier Embankments.
The construction of this barrier embankment is intended to ensure that the https://jayapanguspress.

Maintain Cleanliness The increasing number of religious visitors to Batu Bolong Temple causes various problems, especially in terms of order and cleanliness.
In terms of the order, many umat sedharma carry out various kinds of activities.

These two things will certainly have a negative impact in terms of the views of other people towards Hindus.
Humans must maintain a clean and healthy Bhuwana Agung, with a healthy nature then humans can live healthily.
Maintaining cleanliness is not only an individual human obligation but also a shared responsibility, for both society and government.
Maintaining cleanliness is a human obligation, this is reflected in the Manawa Dharmasastra IV.
56 Book stating that:
NApsu mtram pursam vA sthvanam vA samutsrjet, amedhya liptam anya dvA lohitam vA visAni.

Usually, sweepers work in the morning both inside and outside the temple areas, such as in the parking lot and roads around the Batu Bolong temple.
The cleaning labor is paid for by the Batu Bolong temple management using a budget from incoming cash.
What is hoped is that all pilgrims who pray or people who visit the Batu Bolong temple can work together to maintain the cleanliness of the temple and the surrounding area.
Batu Bolong Temple also provides several rubbish bins to maintain the cleanliness and sanctity of the temple, so every corner has been provided so that pilgrims can throw away used canang or food waste in the right place and not throw it into the sea, apart from that for daily cleanliness.
There are cleaning staff who are paid by Krama Pura to clean every day so that Batu Bolong Temple remains clean so that it is comfortable to use for praying.
Maintain Order and Security Like the temples in Lombok, every visitor is required to obey several rules, namely being required to wear a yellow scarf wrapped around the waist, and women who are menstruating are prohibited from coming to this temple and maintaining the cleanliness of the temple.
Budhawati .
states that the strategy of preserving the sacredness of temples amidst tourism development is to maintain the sanctity of temples, so the management is managed by the pengempon or pengamong.
Pengempon is a group of people who are responsible for holy places.
Pengamong looks after the pelaba temple, manages, looks, maintains, and carries out ceremonies at the temple being held.
A quiet, clean, and peaceful place is needed so that the heart can be peaceful in To make this happen.
Batu Bolong temple etiquette continues to try to improve the condition of the Batu Bolong temple environment, both in terms of the condition of the temple and the temple area as well as the cleanliness of the temple.
The problem that has arisen is that traders sell their wares inside the temple area even though a place has been provided outside.
Apart from being unsightly, it can also disturb umat sedharma who are praying.
Often tourists just wander in without wearing polite clothes and not through the main door but from below .

, which means that information about the prohibition on entering the temple for certain conditions cannot be conveyed.
https://jayapanguspress.
org/index.
php/JPAH With various problems above, there are actions taken by Batu Bolong Temple to overcome them, such as.
Installing Prohibition Information Banners.
Closing the Temple During Ceremonies.
Installing CCTV, and Installing Border Ropes.
The installation of the prohibition banner was done so that there would be no miscommunication with tourists and to maintain good relations with Hindus.
The orderliness carried out by communicating well is reflected in the Manu Smrti II.
138 book which states.
satyam bruyat priyam bruyam na bruyam satyam.
Priyam canartam, bruyat esa dharmah sanatanah.
Translation:
Speak appropriately, don't say harsh words.
Even though those words are true, don't speak soft words that are lies.
Installation of prohibitory information banners in the form of vinyl banners.
Installation of vinyl banners containing various regulations, prohibitions, and appeals.
This banner installation uses two languages, namely Indonesian and English to handle foreign tourists who will enter the temple area.
Meanwhile, the temple is closed as a tourist attraction when there are large ceremonies such as piodalan which is aimed at maintaining the sacredness of the ceremonies being carried out.
Apart from this, this temple is also equipped with Closed Circuit Television or CCTV.
CCTV is a surveillance technology that uses cameras to record and monitor situations in certain areas.
The purpose of installing CCTV itself is to increase security and surveillance in an area.
Batu Bolong Temple is one of the temples that is willing to provide security facilities in the form of CCTV in corners of its environment.
This action serves to increase the sense of security of visitors or Hindus who want to visit and pray at Batu Bolong Temple.
Based on the information the author got, it is very rare for items to be lost in the Batu Bolong Temple area.
For orderliness, a dividing rope is also installed.
The rope divides as a sign and prevents traders from entering the temple area during the ceremony.
Repairs-Renovation The temple renovation program is carried out in two ways, namely programmed renovation and unprogrammed .
Programmed renovation is the renovation of the Batu Bolong temple, which is carried out by the management if they see that the condition of the temple is no longer good.
This is well programmed by making proposals to obtain funds from government agencies that might be able to help.
Meanwhile, non-programmed .
renovations are renovations that are carried out if a situation suddenly occurs that causes the temple or the environment around the temple area to become damaged, such as beach abrasion, which makes the temple area even more eroded so that it requires renovation to make reinforcements so that if abrasion occurs again it will not cause the temple area to be eroded by seawater.
If according to the management's estimates, the renovation program will cost more than five hundred thousand rupiah, a meeting needs to be held between the management, pemangku, and the welaka forum to make joint decisions.
Meanwhile, if the renovation program costs five hundred thousand or less, then the decision can only be taken by the Batu Bolong temple management.
Batu Bolong temple funds were obtained from various Among them are the sesari obtained from pemedek donations, from punia funds or direct donations from pemedek, and also from donations given by the government.
The management manages these funds partly for the maintenance of the Batu Bolong temple, such as being used to buy offerings, renovating the temple and places in the temple area, such as pekemitan hall, barriers to protect the temple area from seawater abrasion, paying for cleaning workers who are tasked with cleaning the temple, used to make administration of the temple management structure, and purchasing temple cleaning https://jayapanguspress.
