Abstract

This study aims to conduct a study of the adaptation of the purusa-prakerti concept at the Pura Dang Kahyangan, namely Kaprusan and Batu Bolong in Batu Layar District, West Lombok Regency. This study was designed as a qualitative descriptive study in order to describe the concept of purusa-prakerti adapted in Hindu religious temple at Kaprusan and Batu Bolong. Data were collected through observation, interviews and document analysis. This study found that Dang Hyang Nirartha's journey in Lombok built a number of temples as a place to do yoga which is still used as a place to carry out Hindu religious activities. Kaprusan Temple and Batu Bolong Temple are two temples where yoga practice has a special identity, namely adaptation to the purusa-prakerti concept taught in the samkhya darsana system. The Kaprusan temple is cosmologically related to the presence of a burst of sea water hitting the walls of the rock cave which is termed kaprusan as a representation of the phallus (masculine). The phonological dimension gives the meaning of "kaprusan" as a word that is identical to ka-purusa-an. The Hindu community continues to identify the temple that has these characteristics as the “Kaprusan” temple as an adaptation of the Purusa concept. Batu Bolong Temple has an identity related to the presence of a large stone that has a large hole which is identified with yoni (feminine). Judging from the etymology, batu bolong has the meaning of a big stone that has a hole so that it becomes the background for naming the “Batu Bolong” temple which is associated with Samkhya teachings as an adaptation of prakerti.

Abstract

Names are essential in society, with interactions starting by mentioning names. Parents give names to their children differently across regions, tribes, and clans, often involving rituals and traditions. The Hindu community of West Lombok Regency has a naming tradition called Ngekehin, performed for babies who are 12 or 42 days old. This unique tradition uses 11 rolled papers with different names stuck in ash and pis bolong within a tamas. The Ngekehin tradition is still practiced across generations, though many do not understand its theological significance. Qualitative research, involving primary and secondary data sources, was conducted to gather information. Informants were selected through purposive sampling, and data collection methods included observation, interviews, and documentation. Research shows that the upakara procession in Ngekehin holds many meanings, particularly theological. The rolling fire in the tradition implies worship of Lord Agni, a deity revered since the Vedic era. In Ngekehin, Lord Agni serves as: 1) The leader of the naming ceremony, 2) An intermediary between the worshipper and the Almighty, giving a "sign" through the lintingan fire indicating the suitable name, chosen from the first or last burning lintingan, 3) A witness to the chosen name, 4) A purifier of mala/impurities since the 12-day baby ceremony is the first "cleansing" in the life cycle, and 5) A remover of previous karmawasana sins.
