Character education and philosophical values in Ranggawarsita’s works

Abstract

In this disruption era, the Javanese character education values are increasingly being abandoned by modern society. This study aims to explore the character education and philosophical values in Ranggawarsita's work entitled Serat Sabdajati. This study used a qualitative method with a hermeneutic design. The source of the data in this research is Serat Sabdajati, which consists of five pages published in 1985 (Karkono's translation). The data were in the form of lingual units: words, phrases, clauses and sentences in the Serat Sabdajati stanzas. The data in this study were analyzed using referential semantics. The results of the study indicate that Serat Sabdajati contains the following educational and philosophical values: (1) the value of always being humble; (2) the value of always trying to be introspective; (3) the value of patience; (4) the value of always avoiding disgraceful acts; (5) values of belief in God and obedience to worship; (6) the value to always obey and comply with the rules; and (7) the value of always think positively about whatever is destined by God. The conclusion of this research is that Ranggawarsita's work of Serat Sabda jati teaches that humans must always remember they life journey, and where they will go. A comprehensive discussion is presented by comparing the results of this study with previous studies.
