Abstract

Upanisad, one of the sacred literatures in Hindu philosophy that contains various natural metaphors to explain the concept of unthinkable and transcendental divinity. These natural metaphors become a bridge that allows humans to understand God as Satyam (truth), Sivam (goodness), and Sundaram (beauty). This research is motivated by an in-depth exploration of the Upanisad texts that describe the dimensions of divinity using elements of the universe, which dimensions are not only spiritual but also relevant in human life. The purpose of this study is to identify and analyze natural metaphors in the Upanisad by understanding how these metaphors describe the nature of God in three main aspects: truth, goodness, and beauty. This study uses a qualitative method with a hermeneutic approach to interpret the Upanisad texts contextually, accompanied by a philosophical analysis to understand the implications of natural symbolism on the concept of divinity. The results of the study show that natural metaphors are used to describe the elements of eternity, purity, and universality of God. The metaphor of nature in the Upanisad is not only an aesthetic expression, but also a profound philosophical medium to describe God as Satyam, Sivam, Sundaram. This symbolism strengthens the understanding that God is not only present in the spiritual dimension but also manifested in the harmony of the universe, so that it can inspire humans to live a life in harmony with divine principles. In addition, the results of this study are expected to be a reference for cross-disciplinary studies between philosophy, theology, and spiritual ecology, especially in linking the relationship between humans, nature, and God.

Abstract

Background: Music played an important role in the development of Hindu-Buddhist civilization in Indonesia, especially in spiritual life and religious rituals. Methods: This article explores how rhythm and melody became essential elements in the religious and cultural practices of the people during that time. Findings: Music not only served as entertainment, but also as a medium of connection between humans and the supernatural, creating harmony between the mortal and divine worlds. In the Hindu-Buddhist era, music was often used in religious rituals, such as temple worship ceremonies and offerings to the gods. Traditional instruments such as gamelan and gender were believed to have sacred powers that could purify the atmosphere and improve concentration in meditation. Through music, values of spirituality, harmony and devotion are embodied, reflecting the cosmic concept in Hindu-Buddhist teachings of balance between the macrocosm and microcosm. The article also discusses historical and archaeological evidence that shows the involvement of music in religious rituals, such as the reliefs in Borobudur and Prambanan Temples that depict musical instruments and religious processions. The art of music at that time not only showed a high level of aesthetics, but also became a symbol of community identity and togetherness. Conclusion: This paper discusses in depth the role of music as one of the supports of spiritual life that has helped shape the foundation of Indonesian culture and tradition to this day. Novelty/Originaloty of this article: This study uniquely highlights the sacred role of music in Hindu-Buddhist religious rituals in Indonesia, emphasizing its function as a bridge between the mortal and divine realms, which has been rarely explored in previous research.

Abstract

This study is a philosophical reflection on the meaning of cosmic sound (nāda brahman) and music in the Hindu philosophical tradition as a contemplative and transformative medium for realizing harmony in life. This research aims to re-explore the metaphysical, aesthetic, and practical dimensions of musical experience as understood in classical Hindu texts. This research aims to show that sound and music, when understood philosophically, can be a medium for the formation of harmony in life and the transformation of consciousness towards a whole and integral cosmic consciousness. In the Nāṭyaśāstra, as a fundamental text of classical Indian art, Bharata Muni positions music (gāndharva) as a direct manifestation of the cosmic principle, namely rotating universal rhythms through the medium of aesthetics. Art, in this framework, is understood as an expression of cosmic movement that functions to awaken consciousness through the experience of feeling. Through a hermeneutic and phenomenological approach, this study reveals the integration of metaphysical, aesthetic, and practical dimensions in human musical experience. The results of the reflection show that aesthetic experience, as formulated in the Nāṭyaśāstra, has a transformative power: it arouses emotions, harmonizes psychic structures, and opens the way to higher consciousness. Thus, cosmic sound and music not only represent harmony, but become a medium for self-realization—as a process of unification of the microcosm (human) with the macrocosm (universe), which states that all reality essentially vibrates in one universal cosmic rhythm.

Abstract

The digital era has significantly transformed traditional arts, particularly in how cultural authenticity and heritage politics are negotiated. The Gamelan Bali application represents an important case study of this transformation, showcasing Balinese gamelan on a digital platform designed for global accessibility. This research aims to explore how the Gamelan Bali application navigates cultural authenticity and negotiates heritage politics in the context of digital platforms. This study employs content analysis of the Gamelan Bali application and user reviews available on public platforms. Patterns of cultural authenticity and usability perceptions were identified. The application simplifies certain cultural elements to suit digital usability while expanding the global reach of Balinese gamelan, reflecting a negotiation between traditional preservation and digital innovation. The Gamelan Bali application demonstrates how digital platforms mediate between cultural preservation and transformation, emphasizing the dynamic interplay of tradition and technology in a globalized context.
