Abstract

Humans live in interaction with culture and tradition, both those inherited from ancestors and those that have undergone acculturation. There is a spiritual touch between tradition and humans, which is the meaning given to the series of rituals that eventually evolve into a tradition. The relationship between humans and their God is then represented in a tradition, one of which is Wiwitan. This tradition, which has existed since ancient times, is a routine practice for farmers before starting their harvest, with the hope that their harvest will be abundant. This study is philosophical research that uses the method of philosophical reflection. This philosophical reflection involves an examination of key concepts in the thinking of Eliade, such as homo religiosus, hierophany, and the sacred and the profane. The researcher can explore how Eliade's ideas can be applied to understand the Wiwitan tradition. A review of the historical literature on Wiwitan, case studies, or anthropological literature also helps to understand the context of the evolution and relevance of the Wiwitan tradition through the ages. The results of this study show that the Wiwitan tradition is an important part of the Javanese farmer's life, which not only functions as a ceremonial rite before the harvest but also reflects their view of nature as a sacred space. In this ritual, farmers honor nature and Dewi Sri, the goddess of fertility, asking for blessings and protection. With the concept of homo religiosus as proposed by Mircea Eliade, Wiwitan reflects the basic human need to connect with the sacred, providing spiritual meaning amidst changing times.

Abstract

This participatory research aimed to enhance the ecological consciousness of the Santri (students) of Pesantren Langitan, a traditional Islamic boarding school in Tuban, East Java, Indonesia. This pesantren was chosen as the subject based on its geographical location along the Solo River. From an ecological perspective, this location has facilitated the implementation of various environmental initiatives, including promoting green consciousness among the local community, encouraging reforestation along the riverbanks, discouraging waste disposal into the river, and other similar actions aimed at preserving the river ecosystem. Another factor that contributed to the selection of Pesantren Langitan as the subject was its traditional Islamic boarding school nature, focusing on studying classical Islamic texts (kitab kuning). Therefore, the research will likely contribute to promoting Islamic ecotheology. The research employed a participatory action approach, wherein Kyai, Ustaz, and santri were actively engaged in the program's planning, implementation, and evaluation. The theme-based program yielded successful outcomes in four key areas: (1) enhancing green consciousness among the santri, (2) formulating a green fiqh concept, (3) promoting green da'wa on social media, and (4) implementing green activities within the pesantren environment.

Abstract

Festival Gandrung Sewu merupakan salah satu kegiatan tahunan yang dilaksanakan di Banyuwangi. Tari Gandrung yang ada pada festival ini bertujuan sebagai bentuk rasa syukur masyarakat Banyuwangi atas hasil panen melimpah yang mereka peroleh dari Dewi Sri atau Dewi pembawa rejeki. Seiring perkembangan jaman, nilai yang terkandung dalam kegiatan festival ini bukan hanya sekedar sebagai peringatan atas rasa syukur saja dan bukan lagi persoalan spiritualitas saja, melainkan terdapat nilai-nilai filosofis lain yang masih dijaga oleh para pelaku budaya di Banyuwangi. Lantas, bagaimana hierarki nilai yang terdapat pada festival ini? Penelitian ini disusun untuk mengetahui bagaimana hierarki nilai yang ada pada kegiatan tahunan di Banyuwangi tersebut. Metode yang digunakan adalah metode deskriptif-analisis, yang mana penulis mengumpulkan data akademik, kemudian kumpulan data ini di analisis menggunakan teori hierarki nilai Max Scheler. Hasil dari penelitian ini adalah festival Gandrung Sewu di Banyuwangi merupakan kegiatan yang menekankan pengalaman spiritual sebagai wujud rasa syukur. Menurut perspektif Max Scheler, festival Gandrung Sewu ini memiliki makna simbol dalam setiap kegiatannya dan mengandung empat hierarki nilai: nilai kenikmatan, nilai vitalitas, nilai spiritual, dan nilai kesucian.
