"”BELAN EVAV” (CULTURAL HERMENEUTICS OF SOPHIA PERENNIS IN THE BELAN TRADITION AND ITS CONTRIBUTION TO INTER-RELIGIOUS HARMONY IN KEI ARCHIPELAGO)"^^ . "This study affirms that the sacred and the profane are deeply embedded within\r\nhuman existence—reflected in both soul and body, spirit and matter, idealism and\r\nactuality. These dimensions also manifest themselves in the human environment: in\r\nreligion, doctrine, and religious practice, and even in the particular experiences of\r\nhumans with their world, especially through customary law and culture. From this\r\nperspective, the present study contributes to the understanding of perennial and sacred\r\nwisdoms as lived realities among the traditional Kei people, a community that\r\nexperiences the interplay between the sacred and the profane through concrete\r\nempirical practices. Secularized desacralization, disharmony rooted in egocentrism,\r\nand alienation through conflictuality have reshaped people's view of living together in\r\na shared world.\r\nWithin this context, the Belan tradition in the Kei Archipelago stands as a model\r\nof a “common house” for the traditional Kei society. It offers a space for unity and\r\ncommunion (ain ni ain), togetherness and harmony, realized through relational\r\nsystems such as roa-nangan (encounter and mutual enlivening), kovaat mir (social role\r\nand position), and embodied in spiritual beliefs and ritual practices. Through this\r\ntradition, the tomat Evav (Kei people) contribute to a form of “sacred knowledge” –\r\nwhat Seyyed Hossein Nasr refers to as The Sacred Science – universal and eternal\r\nvalues, a primordial wisdom that reconciles difference within unity. Such unity is\r\nsacred because it originates from the One God; reverence for life is sacred because it\r\nis the reason for our existence; preserving human dignity is sacred because human\r\nbeings are noble creations of God; and justice is sacred because humanity yearns for\r\npeace. These values are alive in the Belan tradition and are even legitimized through\r\nthe customary law of Larvul Ngabal.\r\nThis research is a qualitative study that, methodologically, adopts an\r\ninterdisciplinary approach by integrating ethnography with the hermeneutics of Sophia\r\nPerennis, utilizing interviews, field documentation, and document analysis as its main\r\ntechniques of data collection. Ethnography serves as the initial method to understand\r\nBelan as a cultural practice within Kei society. Culture is seen as a “text” to be read,\r\ninterpreted, and understood contextually. Belan is not only concerned with empirical\r\nreality but also with metaphysical dimensions, the perennialist approach is essential in\r\nuncovering the universal truths it contains. Sophia Perennis allows us to interpret\r\nBelan as an expression of cosmic harmony and divine order as embodied in the\r\nsymbolic world of Kei society. The perennial values embedded in the Belan tradition\r\noffer meaningful contributions to interreligious unity and harmony in the Kei\r\nArchipelago. Difference is inevitable, like body and soul, but unity is a sacred value,\r\na rahmatan lil-‘alamin, a Divine mercy and blessing for all beings."^^ . "2025-08-04" . . . .
