Abstract

Kaharingan is the indigenous religion of the Dayak people in Central Kalimantan, characterized by its own distinct system of beliefs and rituals. One important element in its religious practice is the Basarah tradition. This article aims to examine the meaning and function of Basarah as a spiritual bridge between followers of Hindu Kaharingan, the spirit world, and Sang Hyang Hatala (God). Using a descriptive qualitative approach, this study applies Structural Functional Theory to explore the philosophical and social dimensions of Basarah within the religious framework of Hindu Kaharingan. The results of the study show that Basarah functions not only as a medium of spiritual communication, but also as a means of preserving spiritual values, fostering community cohesion, and strengthening religious identity.
