Tous droits réservés L’initiation rituelle javanaise et ses modes de transmission 1 L’initiation rituelle javanaise et ses modes de transmission Opposition entre javanisme et islam Jean-Marc de Grave 1 L’initiation rituelle javanaise, malgré l’intérêt socio-anthropologique marqué qu’elle présente, n’a jamais été étudiée auparavant (voir Grave 2001a : 7). John Pemberton (1994) ne parle pas explicitement de l’initiation martiale mais, prenant à contre-pied les monographies préexistantes depuis la période coloniale hollandaise, il montre comment celles-ci ont ignoré, volontairement ou non, certains pans de l’activité rituelle javanaise : ceux qui évoquent l’activité guerrière endogène et certains de ceux qui expriment le caractère à la fois régénérant et sélectif de la nature. Pemberton récupère ainsi la dimension politique incluse, que le colonialisme, l’idéologie nationale indonésienne consécutive et l’idéologie des droits de l’homme —en tant que celle-ci s’élabore dans un environnement sociopolitique, sanitaire et militaire normalisé et comparativement surprotégé— avaient évincée des rituels comme pour désactiver un contenu ressenti menaçant ou déplacé. 2 Cet article a pour but de présenter les pratiques et les références d’un groupe d’initiation rituelle javanaise kanuragan et d’établir une comparaison avec celles d’une école de travail sur la« force vitale » (tenaga dalam) marquée par l’islam. Dans la partie consacrée aux valeurs sociales, j’introduis d’autres exemples d’écoles et de pratiques séculières, catégorisées kanuragan elles aussi, afin de renforcer la comparaison. 3 L’ensemble de ces écoles concerne une part importante des 240 millions d’habitants de l’Indonésie. Elles sont protégées par des personnages très influents liés aux domaines Techniques & Culture, 48-49 | 2007 L’initiation rituelle javanaise et ses modes de transmission 2 rituel, religieux, militaire, politique et économique, fréquemment pratiquants eux- mêmes. L’aspect éducatif et formatif très valorisé de ces écoles et le rôle qu’elles jouent dans l’équilibre social sont inséparables de l’identité culturelle de la société javano- indonésienne. La formation dépasse largement le seul cadre d’un apprentissage de pratiques martiales, elle se présente comme un système de référence que l’on retrouve dans nombre de pays asiatiques. Outre l’activité cérémonielle, ce système concerne aussi les connaissances cosmologiques, les pratiques thérapeutiques, la religion, la philosophie religieuse et, partant, le rapport aux conceptions javanaises de l’autorité. 4 Il s’agit ici de tirer les conclusions qui s’imposent quant à la sélectivité des techniques employées et l’influence des valeurs respectives aux différents groupes en rapport à cette sélectivité : pourquoi tel groupe utilise-t-il telles techniques plutôt que d’autres ? Ainsi, au travers d’une activité, d’une pratique qui plonge aux racines socioculturelles javanaises, c’est aussi la configuration idéologique du système de valeurs d’une nation qui transparaît. In fine, l’article questionne le rapport dialectique qui s’établit entre pratique et représentation. 1 5 L’étymologie du terme kanuragan est certainement liée aux racines sanskrites raga et anuraga qui, dans leurs acceptions en javanais ancien mettent en avant les facultés émotionnelles du désir et de l’amour, alors que dans leurs acceptions en javanais moderne —suite à une évolution propre au contexte javanais—, elles mettent plutôt en avant le « corps physique » (raga), la domination et la force (cf. Grave 2001 : 18-19). 6 L’initiation rituelle kanuragan présente en son fondement deux éléments qui la caractérisent. Le premier est plutôt endogène à la personne et ses constituants. Il est lié aux cycles de vie et plus particulièrement à la naissance. Selon les conceptions javanaises, l’être humain naît avec quatre esprits germains qui l’accompagneront toute son existence (Grave 2001a : chap. III) et plus spécialement un « frère aîné » (kakang) issu de l’« amnios » (kawah) et un « frère cadet » (adhik), encore plus valorisé, issu du « placenta » (ari-ari). La pratique vise à utiliser la force de ces quatre esprits germains. 7 Le second élément —plutôt exogène— consiste en l’acquisition d’aji, lesquels désignent des connaissances qui sont aussi des capacités. À un aji particulier, comme nous allons le voir, s’attache(nt) une ou des caractéristique(s) spécifique(s). Le niveau de base de la pratique s’appelle kaenoman, composé javanais affixé depuis la base enom, « jeune ». Il consiste notamment à acquérir des formes d’invulnérabilité ; à ce niveau existe aussi une forme complémentaire qui a pour objet de se faire investir par un esprit d'animal. Au niveau intermédiaire, il s’agit de lier des contacts amoureux ou de protéger son environnement proche (foyer, travail...). Au niveau supérieur, le niveau kasepuhan —de la base sepuh, « âgé, sage, expérimenté »—, il s’agit de venir en aide aux personnes qui ont des problèmes, soigner les malades notamment, et de perfectionner les techniques de méditation pour augmenter son potentiel d’autorité spirituelle, de s’entraîner à la séparation du corps physique et du corps subtil (ngraga sukma), et de préparer son séjour post mortem dans le cadre des pratiques liées à la compréhension « de l’origine et du devenir de l’être » (sangkan paraning dumadi). 8 L’aji a une existence propre. Il se retransmet de personne à personne ou s’obtient en établissant une relation particulière avec le monde des esprits (alaming dhedhemit). Aji désigne aussi la formule spéciale —le mantra2— par laquelle on acquiert ou on invoque un aji. Dans les deux cas, l’aji est censé être une émanation du monde divin. Techniques & Culture, 48-49 | 2007 L’initiation rituelle javanaise et ses modes de transmission 3 Figure 1. Mbah Budi se prépare à tester l’efficacité de l’aji Windu Kencana chez un élève. 9 Dans l’école Trah Tedjokusuman (TT) ici décrite, l’enseignement a lieu à proximité du palais royal de la ville de Yogyakarta, chez le maître appelé Mbah Budi.3 Celui-ci prescrit à l’élève un type de jeûne spécifique à suivre pour l’acquisition d’un aji particulier. À l’issue de la phase de jeûne, lors d’un rituel d’initiation très élaboré, il baigne l’aspirant avec de l’eau florale consacrée, puis, après lui avoir fait répéter la formule de protection, teste son courage en lui assénant un coup de l’arme vis-à-vis de laquelle l’aji est censé rendre invulnérable. Le maître retransmet alors la formule de protection de cet aji à l’élève, lequel offre en retour un repas rituel —appelé rasulan ou bancakan— au maître, à la famille de celui-ci, et aux autres membres de niveau « aîné ». Le rasulan (du terme d’origine arabe rasul, « prophète ») fait référence à une catégorie de cérémonies communautaires dont l’objet vise à établir une relation avec un ou plusieurs type(s) d’esprits protecteurs donné (s) (Grave 2001a : 88-93). Il est notamment tenu à l’occasion du rituel de « nettoyage de village » (bersih dhusun), effectué lors de la récolte du riz. Il consacre la hiérarchie qui s’établit entre les esprits attachés à la personne, à la maison, au village, au royaume, et le Dieu macrocosmique englobant plutôt lié à la nation. Il consacre aussi les rapports aînés/ cadets, en particulier le rapport parents/enfants, lequel exprime la relation qui s’élabore entre le maître de TT (et son épouse, en quelque façon) et ses élèves.

  • Bhinneka Tunggal Ika” in Forming Harmony of Multicultural Society
    Unconsidered Ancient Treasure, Struggling the Relevance of Fundamental Indonesia Nation Philosophie “Bhinneka Tunggal Ika” in Forming Harmony of Multicultural Society Fithriyah Inda Nur Abida, State University of Surabaya, Indonesia Dewi Mayangsari, Trunojoyo University, Indonesia Syafiuddin Ridwan, Airlangga University, Indonesia The Asian Conference on Cultural Studies Official Conference Proceedings 0139 Abstract Indonesia is a multicultural country consists of hundreds of distinct native ethnic, racist, and religion. Historically, the Nation was built because of the unitary spirit of its components, which was firmly united and integrated to make up the victory of the Nation. The plurality become advantageous when it reach harmony as reflected in the National motto “Bhinneka Tunggal Ika”. However, plurality also issues social conflict easily. Ever since its independence, the scent of disintegration has already occurred. However, in the last decade, social conflicts with a variety of backgrounds are intensely happened, especially which is based on religious tensions. The conflict arises from differences in the interests of various actors both individuals and groups. It is emerged as a fractional between the groups in the society or a single group who wants to have a radically changes based on their own spiritual perspective. Pluralism is not a cause of conflict, but the orientation which is owned by each of the components that determine how they’re viewing themselves psychologically in front of others. “Bhinneka Tunggal Ika” is an Old Javanese phrase of the book “Sutasoma” written by Mpu Tantular during the reign of the Majapahit sometime in the 14th century, which literally means “Diverse, yet united” or perhaps more poetically in English: Unity in Diversity.

  • Bhineka Tunggal Ika As a Source of Politics and the Identity of Indonesian Culture in the Formation of Law
    International Journal of Innovation, Creativity and Change. www.ijicc.net Volume 13, Issue 7, 2020 Bhineka Tunggal Ika as a Source of Politics and the Identity of Indonesian Culture in the Formation of Law Gede Marhaendra Wija Atmajaa, aFaculty of Law, Udayana University, Email: [email protected], [email protected] The purpose of this study is to analyse Bhineka Tunggal Ika as a source of politics and cultural identity in the formation of law in Indonesia. In general, no one knows or even uses Bhineka Tunggal Ika as the source of legal formation. However, often the formation of law in Indonesia refers to the philosophical meaning of Bhineka Tunggal Ika. The research problems are as follows : 1) What are the markers of Bhineka Tunggal Ika in legal formation? 2) Why is Bhineka Tunggal Ika so important? 3) Does Bhineka Tunggal Ika contribute to the formation of customary law? This research was completed using qualitative methods. All data was collected directly or indirectly. Data acquisition was optimised through a literature study. All data was analysed qualitatively. The results showed that: 1) Bhineka Tunggal Ika can be a marker of Indonesian cultural identity in legal pluralism; 2) Bhineka Tunggal Ika, in the formation of state law, is considered relevant as a political source to accommodate customary law and religious law into state law; 3) Bhineka Tunggal Ika, as it relates to the identity of Indonesian national culture, has contributed to the formation of customary law in the midst of modern times. Key words: Politics, Identity of Indonesian Culture, Law, Indonesia. Introduction Cultural identity is a reflection of social security (Pradana, 2019).

The focus of the research is on six electronic textbooks used by students aged 7‐12 years, in Indonesian elementary schools which are further considered in the context of Indonesian teachers’ actual experience of the operationalization of Bhinneka Tunggal Ika in a classroom setting. The study shows that the textbooks and classroom practice are able to describe and transform a concept such as Bhinneka Tunggal Ika into a real and meaningful concept or practice for students as practiced in the family, the school, the wider community and at a national level as well as in religious ceremonies, architecture, and gotong‐royong (or reciprocal) activities. However, the state also has a political goal and this concept should also be viewed as underlying cultural policy designed to build a character and civilization appropriate to a pluralistic Indonesian nation. Keywords: Bhinneka tunggal ika, dynastic policy, textbook, social Bhinneka Tunggal Ika is a concept dating back to the studies, elementary school third century which was central to the religious politics of 1 the ruling dynasty .

Indic culture made a pervasive impact to all over the region of Southeast Asia and particularly in Indonesia. The article also touches upon the responses and diplomacy of Indian government through the course of time in order to forge more cherished and stronger relationship by invigorating soft power. Keywords: Indonesia, India, Ancient, modern, Cultural, Geopolitical Values Introduction We generally tend to define ourselves from culture to distinguish each society from another. The whole world is built on a range of cultures. Culture permeates every aspect of our lives from the most basic elements of living, eating, clothing, to the most developed art music, and philosophy. The Indic culture, what we see today in Southeast Asian countries and particularly in the Indonesian archipelago where it is pronounced mosthas been metamorphosed to a new form of a powerful cult which endows the entire archipelago to stay under the philosophy of “Bhinneka Tunggal Ika”; unity in diversity, its inscribed in the Indonesian national symbol and is mentioned in the article 36 A of the Constitution of Indonesia “Pancasila” (panchashee as pronounced in Hindi).

The philosophy of Bhinneka Tunggal Ika is considered giving a strong contribution to it. This study will try to illustrate the roots of Bhinneka Tunggal Ika philosophy in Sutasoma’s Old Poetry (kakawin) by Mpu Tantular, the implementation of Bhinneka Tunggal Ika philosophy, and the perception of the multicultral community in Denpasar towards the Bhinneka Tunggal Ika. Through descriptive qualitative descriptions, this study tries to see the text of Sutasoma in general along with the implementation of Bhinneka Tunggal Ika philosophy in multicultural society in Denpasar City, which can be seen in the synergy of religious life behavior, the blend of art and culture, and the combination of beliefs seen in various development worship places. This study concludes that the philosophy of Bhineka Tunggal Ika is still relevant as a life guidance for the plural citizens in Denpasar. The basis of Bhineka Tunggal Ika made the community able to develop an attitude of helping each other, tolerance, mutual cooperation(gotong royong), mutual respect, and glorify each other.

  • Chapter IV Temples in Context of Religion and Politics |
    Chapter IV Temples in context of religion and politics architecture of the majapahit period The Javanese temples in general symbolically represent the mythical Mount Meru, the seat of the gods.1 The ways that this concept was incorporated into an architectural shape differed in Central and East Javanese art. While Central Javanese architecture has a concentric lay- out, East Javanese architecture displays a terraced and linear layout.2 The best example for Central Java is the Borobudur. This temple has been interpreted as a mandala, which is a concentric geometric structure.3 For the East Javanese period it is the Majapahit period which yielded the architectural characteristics in a most conspicuous way. The terraced structure is most obvious in the small-scale mountain sanctuaries, the layout of which follows the linear ascent of the mountain slope, such as Candi Kendalisodo and Candi Yudha on Mount Penanggungan. Most of these sanctuaries consist of a pemujaan, a place for worship, which is built in several terraces. In front or next to this structure there are often one or more small altars. Temple complexes such as Candi Panataran 1 Major publications in the field of ancient Javanese architecture are Krom 1923; Stutterheim 1931; Bernet Kempers 1959; Dumarçay 1986a, 1986b, 1993; Soekmono 1995. The issue of Mount Meru has been discussed by several authors, for example by Stutterheim (1931:13) and Bernet Kempers (1959:20-1). 2 Beyond the marked difference in layout it seems to me that there is also a difference in the size of East and Central Javanese temples, respectively. My impression is that most East Javanese temples are of a rather small scale compared to those in Central Java.

  • In Indonesia a History of Islam
    A HISTORY OF ISLAMA HISTORY IN INDONESIA ‘Elegantly written, carefully crafted, and solidly grounded in scholarly sources and debates, this book provides an excellent synthetic account of the history of Islam in Indonesia. Carool Kersten’s erudition, astute and judicious readings of the specialist literature, and his skills as a writer are all in ample evidence in this magisterial survey.’ John T. Sidel, London School of Economics and Political Science Explores the history of Islam in the largest Muslim nation state in the world Located on the eastern periphery of the historical Muslim world, as a political entity Indonesia is barely a century old. Yet with close to a quarter of a billion followers of Islam, it is now the largest and most populous Muslim country in the world. As the greatest political power in Southeast Asia, and a growing player on the world scene, Indonesia presents itself as a bridge country between Asia, the wider Muslim world and the West. In this survey Carool Kersten presents the Islamisation of Indonesia from the first evidence of the acceptance of Islam by indigenous peoples in the late thirteenth century until the present day. He provides comprehensive insight into the different roles played by Islam in Indonesia throughout history, including the importance of Indian Ocean networks for connecting Indonesians with the wider Islamic world, the religion’s role as a means of resistance and tool for nation-building, and postcolonial attempts to forge an ‘Indonesian Islam’.
