Abstract

Abstract Among more than 160 Gaṇeśa statues found in Indonesia, only one is depicted in a standing position on one leg. Based on the positional form, this Gaṇeśa statue with inventory number 198 of the National Museum of Indonesia collection can be referred to as Gaṇeśa ekapāda. Several previous studies have shown differences of opinion in identifying the depiction. This study attempts to clearly identify the depiction and meaning of Gaṇeśa ekapāda by using iconographic and semiotic approaches. In the iconographic analysis, the statue is described based on its distinctive attributes and positional form. The depiction is then compared with ancient Hindu texts and with other Hindu-Buddhist statues and reliefs. The ekapāda position more closely depicts a form of severe austerities. From Peirce's semiotic perspective, this statue functions as a sign that has two main referents through icon and index associations. The resulting layers of meaning show that this statue has a complex symbolic meaning. The statue of Gaṇeśa ekapāda can be interpreted to represent Gaṇeśa as the giver of boons to his followers who practice discipline and perseverance in worship. In addition, this study also explores the relation of this statue to the social and religious dynamics in ancient Javanese society.

Abstract

Abstract. Depiction of the Role of Queen Maha Māyā in the Lalitavistara Relief of Candi Borobudur from a Life Course Perspective. This study discusses the depiction of Queen Maha Māyā by highlighting the role of the body as the center of social, biological, and spiritual experiences. The issue raised is how the concept of Queen Maha Māyā's life course is depicted in the Lalitavistara reliefs at Borobudur Temple. The purpose of this study is to examine how the depiction of Queen Maha Māyā visualized in the relief contains meanings related to the transition of her role and status in a spiritual and social context. The study was conducted through literature review and Panofsky's iconographic method, accompanied by a life course and embodiment theory approach. The results of the analysis show that the iconographic visualization of Queen Maha Māyā shows different depictions before and after pregnancy in accordance with the stages of her life course. This study also shows that the symbolization of motherhood in the relief is more than just aesthetics, but also a reflection of spiritual and socio-cultural values that uphold the position of women.  Keywords:  Life course, Embodiment, Borobudur, Buddha   Abstrak. Penelitian ini membahas penggambaran Ratu Maha Māyā dengan menyoroti peran tubuh sebagai pusat pengalaman sosial, biologis, dan spiritual. Permasalahan yang diangkat adalah bagaimana penggambaran konsep life course Ratu Maha Māyā yang dipahatkan pada relief lalitavistara di Candi Borobudur. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menelaah bagaimana penggambaran Ratu Maha Māyā yang divisualisasikan dalam relief mengandung makna yang berkaitan dengan transisi peran dan statusnya dalam konteks spiritual dan sosial. Kajian dilakukan dengan studi kepustakaan serta metode ikonografi Panofsky disertai pendekatan teori life course dan embodiment. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa visualisasi ikonografis Ratu Maha Māyā memperlihatkan perubahan penggambaran yang berbeda pada tahap sebelum dan setelah kehamilan sesuai dengan tahapan life course. Studi ini juga menunjukkan bahwa simbolisasi keibuan dalam relief lebih dari sekadar estetika, melainkan pula refleksi nilai spiritual dan sosial budaya yang menjunjung tinggi posisi perempuan.   Kata kunci: Perjalanan hidup, Ketubuhan, Borobudur, Buddha
