Pencak Silat in the Indonesian Archipelago

The effort O'ong Maryono has made to compile a book on the development of pencak silat, is, in itself, commendable. This integrated presentation provides for a better and more comprehensive understanding of the various aspects of pencak silat. As well as discussing the historical aspects of pencak silat, O'ong Maryono also examines current issues in pencak silat. In other words, a retrospective and prospective view of pencak silat. I hope that this book will be widely read, and provide a 'lively' and substantial critical analysis that will improve the quality of discourse on pencak silat as a whole. Edy Sedyawati Director General of Culture Department of Education and Culture This book is qu...

The Metamorphosis of the Stupid Child

This story starts from the inspiration of the journey of the figures in the struggle for education. At that time, getting an education was not easy. Moreover, we are mostly descendants of ordinary people, laborers, and coolies. The fact to get the quality of an established life is determined by intelligence, education, skills to get and take advantage of golden opportunities. To change one's life line can not rely solely on the strength of manual labor alone. Therefore, we are not willing to be said to be mental of coolies and only become manual laborers. We also have the same right to be successful people. Here, Enda Kiebo wants to break the family life line, But, the problem from the begin...

Fighting arts have their own beauty, internal philosophy, and are connected to cultural worlds in meaningful and important ways. Combining approaches from ethnomusicology, ethnochoreology, performance theory and anthropology, the distinguishing feature of this book is that it highlights the centrality of the pluripotent art form of pencak silat among Southeast Asian arts and its importance to a network of traditional and modern performing arts in Southeast Asia and beyond. By doing so, important layers of local concepts on performing arts, ethics, society, spirituality, and personal life conduct are de-mystified. With a distinct change in the way we view Southeast Asia, this book provides a wealth of information about a complex of performing arts related to the so-called 'world of silat'. An ancillary media companion website (www.bits4culture.org/pencaksilatandmusic/) is part of this work. Login authorisation information is included in the book. Contributors include: Bussakorn Binson, Jean-Marc de Grave, Gisa Jähnichen, Margaret Kartomi, Zahara Kamal, Indija Mahjoeddin, Ako Mashino, Paul H. Mason, Uwe U. Paetzold, Kirstin Pauka, Henry Spiller and Sean Williams.

Citta & Cetasika

“Unsur-unsur batin yang negatif mengganggu kita. Ini tidak hanya berlaku bagi umat Buddhis, tetapi juga semua orang, terlepas dari keyakinan mereka. Sulit dibayangkan kalau hanya umat Buddhis yang merasa tak bahagia ketika sedang marah, sedangkan umat lain menikmati kegusaran yang muncul di dalam dirinya. Tak peduli apakah kita mengikuti suatu agama atau tidak, menjadi marah adalah kondisi yang mengacaukan diri kita. Di sisi lain, ketika kita tidak bahagia lalu suatu faktor mental positif—seperti cinta kasih, welas asih, atau kesabaran—tiba-tiba timbul dalam diri kita, ini akan membuat kita lebih bahagia, santai, dan damai.” -Guru Dagpo Rinpoche, KTCL, Malaysia- “Ketika saya mendap...
