Abstract

This article aims to explain the existence of Pantak in the religious system of the Dayak Kanayatn people as a spiritual bridge connecting humans with ancestral spirits. The focus of the study is to discuss the background of beliefs in Pantak, the process and types of its manufacture, the forms of rituals that accompany it, and the challenges of the sustainability of the Pantak tradition in the contemporary era. This research uses an exploratory study method with an interpretative approach, which integrates descriptive-ethnographic data and the author's cultural experience as part of the Dayak Kanayatn community. The results of the study show that Pantak was born from the belief in the continuity of the relationship between humans and ancestors after death, as well as the belief in Jubata as the source of life. This research confirms that Pantak is not just a cultural artifact, but a living religious symbol that is continuously negotiated amidst the dynamics and changes in religiosity, modern rationality, and social and cultural transformations of the Dayak Kanayatn people.

Abstract

This study aims to explain the metaphysical concept contained in the term Sabaya Diri’ in the Dayak Kanayatn community in West Kalimantan. Sabaya Diri’ is a human recognition of the existence of others as part of oneself that should not be hurt, hated and belittled. The perspective used in this study is the concept of Metaphysics of Hope from the French philosopher Gabriel Marcel. The method used in this study is a qualitative study method with a literature review. The author collected data on Gabriel Marcel’s thoughts, both physical and digital sources. Meanwhile, the idea of Sabaya Diri’ was elaborated from the author's meaning as a native Dayak Kanayatn. This study found that the term Sabaya Diri’ contains three elements of affirmation of the existence of others as the human self itself. The first, fellow Dayaks are the most solid recognition of Sabaya Diri’ because of the similarity of ethnicity. The second, non-Dayak tribes are Sabaya Diri’ because they are dignified and noble humans. The third, the natural environment is Sabaya Diri’ because of the closeness of the Dayak people's relationality to the universe.
