Lessons from Wayang Kulit Performance









 





 1..


On the top, it's a lesson of morality, honesty, truth should win against evil.
2.One has to choose what to do in accordance with his own belief.
  • Kumbakarna has to choose to fight despite Rahwana's sinful deeds, not to defend his brother but to defend his country. "Right or wrong is my country".
  • Wibisana, he chooses to defend the absolute truth. A sin committed by his own brother - the king, must be condemned. He decides to join Rama, the right side.
3.It is reflecting events in life.
  • One must work hard decently before attaining his goals.
  • Lust of material wealth should bring disaster to other people and at the end should ruin his own life.




  • Love affaires exist since ancient time. But do not follow the wrong examples, such as the one between Begawan Wisrawa and Sukesi, Rahwana's parents.

  • 4.Life Purification.
    A king gives up his own crown, goes to solitude and lives as a Begawan to meditate, purifying his soul to reach a true holiness.
    5.Everyone is longing to live in a just (adil) and prosperous (makmur) society, in the safe, peaceful and secured situation with the blessing of God Almighty.
