Story of Bali, Indonesia

Jainism had no significance so far as Indonesia is concerned, and can therefore be disregarded.

Under the influence of these movements Brahmanisim changed, and a, a, third phase in the evolution of Indian culture, Hinduism, followed. Hinduism Since the old indigenous gods were allotted by the priests a recognized place in the religious system, a veritable pantheon came into existence with entirely new rites and ceremonies.

The sacrifice, and above all knowledge of the sacrificial ceremonial, lost its predominant place in the cult as an indispensable prerequisite for the attainment of salvation. The deities were no longer just tools of the priests, but manifestations or creations of a supreme God.

The Hindu theologians failed in their attempt to make Isvara (The Lord), the sublime and mighty counterpart of the Brahman of the Upanishads manifest in the three gods Brahma, Creator of the World, Vishnu, Guardian of the World, and Shiva, Destroyer of the World, and to have him worshipped as the supreme God.
