A secondary burial practice known as Mangongkal Holi originated in the Toba Batak people. For hundreds of years, the Toba Batak tribe has incorporated this ceremony completely. Mangongkal Holi, unlike other Indonesian burial customs that have been successful in attracting tourists like the Ngaben and Rambu Solo celebrations, is going through an existential crisis, as evidenced by the somewhat less intense manner in which it is currently being practiced. The purpose of this study is to examine how the discourse around the Mangongkal Holi rite contributes to the development of Toba Batak cultural identity. In-depth interviews with Toba Batak tribal members served as the source of the research's data, along with a literature review. This study uses Ernesto Laclau's insight analysis as its analytical framework. According to the findings, the Mangongkal Holi ritual was articulated into four nodal points: reverence for ancestors, indifference to other religions, prestige, and unity. Based on the subject position analysis, the individuals from Jakarta Toba Batak demonstrate that there is a contingency of identity for Jakarta Toba Batak in the Mangongkal Holi discourse brought on by the individual's involvement with traditional institutions. The Mangongkal Holi rite seeks to promote clan harmony among those Jakarta Toba Batak people who have a close relationship with adat. It is no longer relevant to the social reality of Jakarta, which stresses efficiency in all aspects of life, such as time and money efficiency, for Jakarta Toba Batak people who are far from the Mangongkal Holi ceremony.

The pependetan dance "Panca Sani" is a creative dance whose movements are based on a developed traditional dance. This dance describes the reception and expression of gratitude to the gods who descend into the natural world. The idea for this work was inspired by the Wayang Istri dance at the Pangrebongan Kesiman temple. Wayang Istri dance is a ngerebong traditional dance of the Kesiman people held at the Agung Petikan Pengarebongan Kesiman Temple, Denpasar. This ceremonial dance is held every 6 months and falls on Buda Cemeng Langkir Day. The movements and costumes are presented very simply by bringing a property of a rectangular shape made of cow/buffalo leather. The method of creating the "Panca Sani" Pependetan dance refers to I Wayan Dibia's concept in the Panca Sthiti Ngawi Sani creation methodology through five stages of the art creation process, as follows: inspiration/ngawirasa, exploration/ngawacak, conception/ngarencana, execution/ngawangun and the production/ngebah stage. 5 female dancers dance this Pependetan creative dance to express the characters in the dance: majesty, nobility, sincerity which is presented through the graceful beauty of the movements, and the costumes. The dance accompaniment uses a set of Gong Gede gamelan. Pependetan dance is a character education effort with the community to foster a conducive mood and moral formation for each individual involved in the world of education. Growing individuals as moral persons according to what is desired is the core of character education. The results of this work are expected to preserve the teaching and development of pependetan to form a positive attitude for the formation of good character.

Religious symbol is the generic word for all kinds of religious signs of the divine. It includes myths and religious narratives, theological ideas, particular notions such as karma or sin which are defined in one or more symbol systems, religious acts such as liturgies or private meditations that move through and overlay various symbol systems, as well as architectural and artistic symbols with religious content, books, songs, devotional objects, and the like. Generally, it can be referred to a religious object and can bear a religious meaning. This study aims to identify the meaning of a contextualized religious symbol in the Bali Church which is known as ‘the dancing cross’. The theory applied in this study is semiotic theory which in this case is structural semiotics. The source of the data are texts that discuss about the cross symbol as well as the results of interviews with the creator of the dancing cross symbol, Nyoman Darsane. This study confirms that the dancing cross, which is widely used by Christians who are members of the Protestant Christian Church in Bali is considered as the product of regionalization or contextualization of the cross which is the crux of Christian life and worship. The shape of the dancing cross is transformed from the universal shape of the cross which is consisted of two bars leading to a T-shaped cross which base stem is longer than the other three arms but crooked at the bottom like a dancer who is in left agem position. The results of the analysis through the utilization of structural semiotics in terms of syntagmatic and paradigmatic relations revealed some important points namely the contrastive meaning of the cross before and after the time of Jesus Christ as the sign of shame which covers a curse, a stumbling block and foolishness and the sign to be glorified which covers salvation victory and obedience. Other important points to be revealed are the contextual shape of the cross that can be aligned as a dancer who is in left agem position and the contextual meaning of the cross which leads to the sign of obedience of God’s people or the disciples to carry or dance the cross in accordance with the example given by Jesus Christ.
