Summary: | Although Ilmu (knowledge) and ngelmu (philosophy) may sound similar, they
actually carry different definitions and this could be translated on the methods
used to obtain each of them. Ilmu can be obtained from formal or informal
education while ngelmu can be achieved through any practices that are related
to Javanese spiritual concept. The characters of Ha Na Ca Ra Ka are based on
someone’s understanding on life especially when they are communicating with
God, human beings and also themselves. Self elements such as heneng, hening,
and heling are vital in searching for ilmu and ngelmu. Besides that, they also
need to possess some strong elements within themselves such as sabar (patience),
pasrah (submit to their fate), nrima (acceptive) and rela (willingness). Although
there are marginal Muslim Javanese in Indonesia, Islamic teachings can still
be practiced according to their principles when they are out searching for ilmu
and ngelmu, which are both derived from Allah the Almighty |
