Abstract

Religious differences within one family are often found in Toraja society. The four faces of God in one family are a symbol of a family living in harmony and upholding religious tolerance. This study examines how the habituation of communication in maintaining tolerance in building religious harmony in Toraja community is mediated through the existence of Tongkonan (traditional house of Toraja). This study used a qualitative descriptive method in the form of observations, interviews, and focus group discussion (FGD) at three locations which are the research objects, Lembang Madandan, Lembang Kaduaja and Lembang Tombang Langda. The results of this study indicate that a harmonious relationship among religions is a habitus that is built into the mental and cognitive domains that each individual is given freedom to choose religion, is respected (dianggak), is supported in worshiping (diangkak) which is the behavioral internalization of the three main attitudes; sianggak, sikalik, and siangkaran, with Tongkonan as the communication center for collective decision making, problem solving, and conflict resolution. The substance of this research can be used as a reference in realizing religious tolerance through the heritage of local traditions and culture.
