Summary
A study reveals that the traditional Javanese performance art 'Lakon Wahyu Eka Bawana' holds significant cultural and spiritual value for the community of Sangiran. This form of 'Lakon Carangan,' which narrates Puntadewa's journey to seek divine revelation through meditation, is frequently requested by local wayang performers due to its perceived ability to bring blessings, peace, and prosperity. The research highlights the enduring belief in the art's positive impact on daily life, underscoring its role as a cultural practice deeply intertwined with the community's values and spiritual aspirations.
