Abstract

Nyedaang Duwe tradition is a tradition that is carried out from generation to generation that

reflects a community belief and its implementation coincides with the Kasa Full Moon every

two years. The purpose of this study is to reveal the basis of the Nyedaang Duwe tradition

along with the philosophical values contained therein. This study uses a qualitative approach

with interview, observation and documentation methods conducted in Tambakan Village. The

results of the study indicate that the Nyedaang Duwe tradition is an important part of the lives

of the Tambakan Village community, the sacredness of this tradition is due to the myths that

develop in the community and the strong beliefs of the Tambakan Village community. In its

implementation, the media used is the duwe cow which is sacred with the yajña ceremony. The

essence of the Nyedaang Duwe tradition can be seen from the value of harmony reflected in

the Tri Hita Karana teachings, harmony between humans and God as a manifestation of

spirituality, harmony between humans and others such as the establishment of togetherness

and good communication between one another and harmony with the environment in the form

of environmental conservation carried out by the community. The value of preserving culture

is also one of the things that the people of Tambakan Village can do by continuing to carry out

traditions sustainably.
