POETIC INTERPRETATION OF THE QUR'AN AND SUNDANESE LITERATURE: PUPUJIAN POEM OF WAL FAJRI BY K.H.E.ABDULLAH

This article examines the poetic explanation of K.H.E. Abdullah (1918-1994) about time in Q.S. al-Fajr [89]: 1-5. The poem K.H.E. Abdullah not only interprets Q.S. al-Fajr [89]: 1-5 as a phenomenon of the circulation of time in the universe but also as a metaphor for the journey of human life. His interpretation was published in the Iber Sundanese magazine in the October-December 1970 edition in the rubric of Tafsir Al-Qur'an. E. Abdullah is the second generation activist of the Islamic Unity organization (PERSIS) after A. Hassan. Based on library research and the descriptive-analytical method, this article shows that the verse about the phenomenon of time in al-Fajr/89: 1-5 is interpreted metaphorically as a description of human life in the world. The word al-Fajr means youth before ruruntuk (old age) comes. Laya>l 'asr is interpreted as alternating nights describing the increasing age. Al-syaf' interpreted as a whole moon night, represents a perfect age as an adult. Al-watr interpreted when the night turns dark reflects the time of getting older. The passage of youth into old age means wa al-layl iz\a> yasr (by night when it passes). From the Sundanese literary approach, E. Abdullah's pupujian poem generally shows the works that refer to the rules of pupujian, as seen in the number of lines, syllables of arrays, and the final rhyme of each line (a-a-a-a). This pupujian poem emphasizes that although E. Abdullah is active in the modernist Islam movement, he still preserves the tradition of pupujian in his work to bring himself closer to the local culture.

The Concept of universe in the poetry of Meer Taqi Meer

The concept of universe in the poetry of Meer Taqi Meer
 In Mir's view, life is an endless journey. This continues to be forgotten even after the passing of this color and smell. In this eternal journey, man gets a short break of rest. In this short interval, the journey of life begins again. The nature of this journey can also be different. The same unity of existence, the same world which is the common language of Sufis, but the lovers is new and charming. Mir's conception of the universe belongs to the existential Sufis.These are the two forms, or reflected the worldOr the world of mirrors of this selfMir's conception of the universe reflects the attitude of thinking about various aspects and its consequences. He was not only a poet of a particular passion and feeling but also various aspects of practical life are found in his poetry. This universe is a human universe. An internal system and harmony in the dispersed universe creates a sense of interrelationship. However, this consciousness is full of reality, that is, it has the colorful color of the authority.

Religion and Science in the Pythagorean Doctrine

Bu çalışmanın temel amacı, Pythagorasçı öğretide din ve bilim ilişkisinin nasıl kurulduğunu açık ve seçik bir şekilde ortaya koymaktır. Din ve bilim, insanın yaşam serüveninde kendisini ve çevresindekileri anlamlandırmasına ve açıklamasına olanak sağlayan iki önemli disiplindir. Dolayısıyla da bu iki disiplin, tarihsel süreç içerisinde hep karşılıklı bir etkileşim içerisinde olmuşlardır. Bazı düşünürler, din ve bilim arasındaki etkileşimin birbirlerini desteklediğini ve beslediğini öne sürerken, ağırlıkta olan görüş ise, bu disiplinlerin birbirlerine karşıt olduğu ve akabinde onların aynı anda kabul edilmelerinin bir çelişki yarattığıdır. Böylece ikinci anlayışı savunanlar için din ve bilim apayrı alanlar olmalarının yanında birbirleriyle de hiçbir şekilde uzlaşmayan disiplinlerdir. Buna mukabil, Pythagoras ve takipçileri, bir anlamda öncellerine, (Miletli filozoflara) meydan okuyarak, din ve bilimi bir çatı altında sunmuş ve böylelikle de dinin bilime karşıt olmadığını, aksine dinin temelinde bilimin olabileceğini ve hatta bu iki disiplinin aynı amaca hizmet eden tek bir araç olduğunu göstermişlerdir. Pythagorasçılar bu gayelerini, din, müzik ve matematik çalışmalarını birleştiren “harmonia” kavramını keşfederek gerçekleştirmişlerdi.

Gazi Husrev-beg u kontroverznim historiografskim perspektivama

While former Yugoslav historiography had a kind of schedule of scientific research centers (Zagreb for Latin work, Sarajevo for work in Turkish, and Belgrade for work on Visant sources) the end of the 20th century developed new national historiographies that approach the history of the Ottoman period from its point of view. Since this period constitutes a common past of the people of large part of the Balkans, today we can analyze how and what extent regional historiographies explore common historical figures and events. Although historiography can be followed by Gazi Husrev-bey's life and military journey through the Balkan territories, the perception of his character and work remained within the margins of the basic facts of the historical reality of the 16th century. Given the areas where the mention of Gazi Husrev's name and works remained widely present, the research corps on this topic is diverse, but in the foreground based on samples of archival material and representative units of domestic and foreign historiographic literature. The basic thesis I would like to present is that even the most established facts of the past cannot avoid contradictions and debatable interpretations, largely dependent on the point of view or focus shaped by stereotypes, exclusive hypotheses through the paradigm of social awareness as well as the interests of time and politics in some historiographic circles. Through sel examples of research approaches, it can be noted that they are related to the lack of involvement of scientists in incorporating research results into the education system. In addition, the Bologna system has narrowed research topics and they are mainly related to today's borders of Bosnia and Herzegovina. This is absurd for the processing of the Ottoman period of the Bosnian Ayalat, which formed one of the administrative units of the Ottoman State. Changes to the borders with the collapse of the Ottoman state have left a large part of the Bosnian people in other Balkan areas. Their collective memory and attitude towards historical figures are mostly about folk songs, while the research of historical facts on the same topics is left to national historiographies that still retain antagonistic attitude towards the Other. This is best seen through the revitalization of theories about the „dark Turkish times“ and „haters of Christianity“. Due to numerous gaps in knowledge and material traces of the past, younger generations of researchers in the neighborhood, however, are asking logical questions such as: Why renounce the Ottoman heritage because of the collective aversion to the State which once they were part of. This presentation is just a small example of these common historiographical wanderings. According to what has been researched and known about the character and work of Gazi Husrev-bey, this historical personality can be a pattern of local and regional research tendencies. Persistence in such approaches seriously calls into question the responsibility of historians. Bosnia and Herzegovina's experience of a historiographical approach to the topic of famous personalities and events is increasingly indicating self-isolationism.

Uncovering the Wisdom of Death Toward a More Meaningful Life (Analysis of Komaruddin Hidayat's Thought)

Death has been a scourge for humans so far. The purpose of this study is to explore the meaning of death and its relevance to the meaning of human life according to Komaruddin Hidayat. This research is a qualitative research using a library research approach. The results show that Komaruddin Hidayat views death and life as being in an unbroken straight line, death does not mean the completion of the journey of human life, but the transition of the dimensions of nature and time. Death is also not a sign of the bankruptcy of life, but a stage of metamorphosis towards the perfection of a higher life. Understanding the meaning of death has implications for the meaning of human life which is realized by practicing Islam in daily life, namely obedience, submission, and longing for Allah Swt. The conclusion that can be drawn from this research is that the contemplation of death becomes a human motivation for religion as a way of giving meaning to life and giving meaning to others.

A Collection of Poems The Rivers, Seas, and Us by Morsidi M.H: The Story about Life

Poetry has become a popular choice among Bruneian writers. As a result, many of those who received the Southeast Asian Writers' Awards came from the genre of poetry. Most recently, in 2021, Morsidi M.H was announced as the recipient of the award for his book, Kumpulan Sajak Sungai, Laut and Kita, which was published in 2021. This book contains 57 poems and is divided into four themes, namely Pulse and the Journey of Life (20 poems) , Homeland (7 poems), Nature and the Meaning of Life (12 poems), and Introspection and the Reality of Life (18 poems). In accordance with the contents and title, this collection of poetry presents life in line with time that is always moving forward. It works on the poet's imagination, wisdom, and emotions to produce the poems. In the Pulse and Journey of Life section alone, there is a connection between one poem and another. This attracts attention to be used as research with the objective to study and interpret all the events that the poet went through during the passage of time recorded in the form of verses of his poems. A close reading of the poems in the Pulse and Journey of Life section is not enough. Therefore, it is coupled with an expressive approach to achieve the objective of this study more effectively. The findings of this research showed that these poems share the meaning of life, which is a journey that is not considered too easy to go through, especially when confronted with many faces of human nature. This journey of life is passed along with the passage of time, and it is finally realized that there is no best way to follow this journey of life except with faith and the guidance of Islamic teachings.

A Review of the Role of Essential Ayurvedic Management in Covid Pandemics

At the end of 2019, China exploded COVID-19 and mushroomed rapidly throughout every nation. Due to the information received by the media, this message has spread somewhere in the minds of the people. Covid-19 is a complicated, difficult to treat, or horrifying disease. Although the severity of symptoms and the lethality of the virus directly causing the disease cannot be ruled out or ignored, but somewhere, the negligence of the imbalance in the nature of the basic elements of the body is the reason for the fatality of this disease. According to Aacharya Charak, "there can be hundreds of alternatives for the pathogen of any disease," but "this body is the only option for pathogens to cause hundreds of diseases." Which is why this should be the major focus for treatment in any stream of medical science and Ayurveda is a science of 'ayu', meaning harmony of health and life or journey of healthy life. This reveals that there is a high opportunity to evaluate the range of relevant drugs available in the Ayurvedic that may be employed more rationally to complement each stage of the disease. The Ayurvedic literature provides no explicit mention of this illness but according to the similarity of symptoms despite the occurrence of diseases, there is a special outbreak of Vata and Kapha. This disease can be reconciled in Janpadudhwansh janya diseases, Visham jwara and Vatshleshmic jwara.

Il velo del silenzio. Abusi, violenze, frustrazioni nella vita religiosa femminile by Salvatore Cernuzio

Reviewed by: Il velo del silenzio. Abusi, violenze, frustrazioni nella vita religiosa femminile by Salvatore Cernuzio Claudia Giampietro, JCL Il velo del silenzio. Abusi, violenze, frustrazioni nella vita religiosa femminile. By Salvatore Cernuzio. Edizioni San Paolo, 2021. Pp. 208. €20. A veil of silence lies on the reality of abuse that torments many women who embrace the path of religious life. Superiors general, novice mistresses, treasurers, and other members of female religious communities of both apostolic [End Page 208] and contemplative life are described as thirsty for power and perpetrators of unbearable discriminations in the eleven short stories anonymously told to journalist Salvatore Cernuzio by current and former religious sisters. They come from different countries, sometimes transferred to places very far from their homeland to join an international novitiate. Not even an unshakeable ability to adjust to challenges would be enough to deal with the intolerable conditions recounted, in which a life of spiritual perfection, total submission to authority, and denial of fundamental freedoms seems to be the wished-for goal by their major superiors who lost the vision and understanding of the radical following of Christ. The stories collected by C., an Italian reporter who works for the Holy See's media office, leave one astonished in reading about the incredible pain experienced by women who are defined as "departed" (72) because of their decision to leave their congregations to receive care and assistance once they fall prey to burnout and psychiatric disorders. Such decisions are harshly judged by their superiors and sometimes justified with a distorted interpretation of biblical passages and criticism of the younger generations who, in their words, would not be generous enough to follow God with an undivided heart. Many of the women C. interviews find themselves having to choose between being forced "to remain in a place that they do not see any more as ideal to seek God's will" (154) or enter into a kind of non-existence outside the institute, where they have few resources to help themselves. It is easy to imagine the "departed" members as a new category of souls lingering in Dante's Limbo, a place that materializes on this earth whenever women who choose to leave a given institute are labeled as lost for the rest of their lives, or unworthy of being listened to because they could only be capable of expressing anger and desire for vengeance. The sad reality is that often religious institutes do not plan any support measures for the members who leave and who therefore find themselves without family or friends to rely on for a safe shelter. In some cases, they are told to gather their belongings overnight and leave without any money or the possibility to have further contact with people with whom they shared a considerable part of their life journey (38). There are a few structures that provide former religious sisters and nuns with the help needed. This is the case of the Chaire Gynai (in English "Welcome, woman") integration project in Rome, managed by the Scalabrinian Sisters to welcome women in conditions of fragility and of any status, age, or origin (45). In the eyes of their major superiors, hesitation, mental issues, difficulty in bending one's will to all-powerful leaders represent dead ends after years of impeccable commitment and self-giving (81). While evaluating the causes of such abuse, Italian psychiatrist and psychotherapist Prof. Tonino Cantelmi [End Page 209] affirms: "In female congregations the incapacity of authentic integration is very frequent, and above all it is possible to identify a clamorous short-sightedness of superiors general in handling the talents of sisters or nuns" (171–72). C.'s narratives indicate there are institutes that do not consider the diversity of talents of their members, and in this way hinder a new flourishing of the institutes. This is an evil from both an individual and collective perspective. There is a common frustration among religious women forced to satisfy senseless demands imposed by a tunnel-visioned leadership. For those who do not follow this unspoken rule by manifesting their skills and desire to improve them for the sake of the institute, the consequence is being marginalized or...

Access to Services for Children and Youth With Special Health Care Needs and Their Families: Concepts and Considerations for an Integrated Systems Redesign.

Access to services for children and youth with special health care needs (CYSHCN) have typically emphasized coverage, service, timeliness, and capability. Yet families of CYSHCN continue to describe a fragmented health care system with significant unmet needs. For many years, the concept of access to services has focused on the services themselves, rather than starting with the needs of CYSHCN and their families. Meeting these needs should be grounded in health equity, address systemic racism and ableism, and emphasize the life course and journey of those with such needs and their families. In this paper, we start with the simple concept of asking that care is available for CYSHCN regardless of when, where, and how they need it. Access to services is built on relationships instead of a series of transactions. Opportunities for innovation include creating a single point of service entry; determining services based on need instead of diagnosis; and emphasizing service continuity, transition, and a place-based approach. The innovations reimagine access throughout the life course, centering care around a proactive, human-centered system that addresses health and all of its determinants. The landscape of antipoverty investments, cultural humility, workforce changes, technology, and human-centered thought in design have the potential to further transform the conceptual framework to improve access to services for CYSHCN and their families.

월리스 스티븐스의 시학으로 셰이머스 히니 시의 블랙버드 사유하기

The paper is to analyze and apply to Seamus Heaney’s “blackbird” poems with Wallace Stevens’s poetics on “Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Blackbird.” The latter is distinguished from the romantic traditional bird-related poems and does not demonstrate common personification or immersion in emotions. Regardless of prejudice of the number 13 and black, which symbolize ominous signs or death images, Stevens attempts to represent the true characteristics of symbols in nature without exaggeration or extended interpretation, presenting the reality of nature as it is, challenging human abstractions of nature. In “Blackbird of Glanmore,” which Heaney’s traumatic memories are immanent, a blackbird gives an opportunity to meditate on his life journey. The fable-like poem, “St. Kevin and Blackbird” provides our understanding and contemplating his coexistence with the bird. As an envoy of nature, blackbirds offer a variety of material, intellectual, philosophical and spiritual meanings to poets and humans. A sense of fatality, cyclical life, and ontological nature of nature which is unmatched by any human culture, are clearly connoted in the works of both poets. (Mokwon University)

Representasi Pergolakan Batin Perempuan dalam Film Little Women (Analisis Wacana Kritis Sara Mills)

The issue of gender is still a debate in society today. Women cannot enjoy a free life, and are often constrained to follow the rules that exist in society. Film as one of the mass media that can convey messages widely, has become a medium used by feminist fighters to raise the issue. One of them is Greta Gerwig's Little Women. The film tells the story of the author's life journey with 3 sisters, each of whom has a dream when they grow up, but has to deal with the rules that limit them, which of course becomes an inner struggle for the March brothers, between achieving their dreams or living in a marriage.

Intended to find discrimination, as well as stereotypes contained in the film, as the cause of the inner turmoil of women in the film Little Women. The conclusion of this film represents the position of women as marginalized and not getting equal opportunities with men. Various aspects of life limit women's space for movement and place women in a women's social construction, causing inner turmoil in living life between following their wishes, or the rules in society.

Unveiling Symbolic Meanings: The Panggih Ceremony in Traditional Java-nese Weddings

This research unveils the symbolic depth of the Panggih Ceremony, a central component of traditional Javanese weddings. The ceremony is a living canvas upon which intricate symbols are painted, embodying the core values and beliefs of Javanese culture. Through a detailed exploration of the symbolism inherent in the ceremony's elements, this research offers an illuminating journey into the heart of Javanese traditions. The traditional attire of the bride and groom, marked by the pristine white of the kebaya and the vibrant batik sarong, signifies purity, unity, and balance. The siraman, a ritual of purification, prepares the couple with spiritual and emotional clarity, highlighting the importance of starting their journey with pure hearts. The exchange of gifts, including twin hairpins and a ceremonial dagger, symbolizes promises of love, protection, and support, reinforcing the commitment to mutual well-being. The seserahan, the ceremonial exchange of gifts between families, signifies unity and the merging of households, with each item exchanged carrying specific meaning. The Serimpi dance, celebrated for its grace and harmony, emphasizes coordination and mutual understanding in the marital relationship. The orientation of the couple facing west symbolizes the end of their individual journeys and the commencement of their shared path. The Panggih Ceremony embodies the essence of purity, unity, and balance, celebrating the enduring values and traditions of Javanese culture. It transcends borders and speaks to universal themes, emphasizing the power of tradition and symbolism in commemorating love and unity.
