Abstract

This paper throws some light on some aspects of lontar, which is supposed to reveal its philosophical background and its ritual performance. It is often found in some traditions that ritual performance with its intricateness and complexities are just performed for fulfilling a quest of spiritual longing. It is difficult to see its interrelation between performative aspect of it and the possibility of having philosophical background on which a certain ritual is performed. Prior to having discussion on these two important points, however, general information about lontar as material culture is required. It is so since it is ancient text which is less people are interested in reading it. Further, reading a lontar is basically having a dialogue to its writer /composer whose ideas and thoughts are reflected on it. Key words: lontar, philosophy, ritual, culture.
