Abstract
Indonesia has various types of ethnicities and cultures. However, not everyone understands their own culture. This then raises concerns about the possibility of extinction will occur in the future. So, it is necessary to carry out the cultural inheritance. Cultural inheritance is not only centered on verbal meanings but also nonverbal meanings. The meaning of each person can be the same as well as different because everyone interacts different backgrounds people, this explanation can be related to the symbolic interactionism theory proposed by Herbert Blumer. When interacting with people from another region, people may experience culture shock because of differences that they are not used to experiencing. With this problem, the researcher wants to find out how the previous generation of Pontianak Chinese people who live in Jabodetabek pass the nonverbal meaning of the cheng beng ceremony to their successors. This research uses phenomenological methods and constructivist paradigms. The data from this study were obtained from structured interviews which were then coded into words. The results of this study indicate that there are two ways of inheriting the cheng beng ceremonial culture, namely by telling and bringing directly to the ancestral graves so that future generations can experience it firsthand.
