Abstract

Environmental degradation and the weakening of intangible heritage have renewed interest in how ritual sustains relations among culture, community, and nature. Yet its role in reproducing environmental ethics and eco-cultural resilience remains underexamined. This study examines the Misalin tradition in Galuh, West Java, as living ecological heritage linking collective memory, ritual practice, and ecological values. Using a qualitative case study within a constructivist-interpretivist framework, data were gathered through participant observation, in-depth interviews with customary leaders, religious figures, residents, and government officials, and documentary analysis. The findings show that Misalin operates as a cultural institution through which ritual symbols, collective participation, sacred landscapes, and religious meanings transmit environmental ethics across generations. The ritual strengthens social cohesion, sustains cultural memory, legitimizes ecological responsibility, and supports community resilience amid socio-cultural change. The study advances heritage scholarship by proposing living ecological heritage as a framework for understanding how collective ritual practice reproduces environmental ethics and eco-cultural resilience. It also offers policy relevance for culturally grounded heritage governance.
