The religious values and Balinese Hindu cultural arts in the teachings of the Bhagavad Gita have a close relationship. The Bhagavad Gita teaches religious values or truths that are universal and provide inspiration for the growth and development of Balinese Hindu cultural arts (decorative arts, dance arts, sound arts). This Bhagavadgita book teaches values that really need to be understood and practiced today such as: the essence of work (karma marga yoga), the essence of filial piety (bakti marga yoga), the essence of knowledge (jnana marga yoga) and the essence of yoga (Raja marga yoga). This whole value is a way for Hindus in general and especially for Balinese Hindus to achieve a balance in life. at the same time leading to achieve perfection.
