PESAN DAKWAH DALAM PAGELARAN WAYANG WONG LAKON “DURGA RUWAT”
Budaya Jawa dewasa ini dipandang sebelah mata di beberapa kalangan, entah hal tersebut disebut kuno atau sudah ketinggalan zaman. Namun yang perlu diketahui, ajaran Jawa memiliki nilai dakwah yang luar biasa. Penelitian ini berfokus pada isi pesan dakwah pementasan wayang wong yang mengambil tema ruwatan sudamala, dikemas dalam bentuk pegelaran, dengan lakon “Durga Ruwat”, yang dipentaskan di Lotus Garden, Desa Ketanon, Kecamatan Kedungwaru Kabupaten Tulungagung. Metode deskriptif kualitatif merupakan metode yang digunakan dalam peneltian tersebut, yang terfokus pada pesan dakwah yang tersirat didalam pegelaran tersebut. Berdasarkan hasil yang didapat, ajaran Islam dan Jawa memiliki kesinambungan atau kesamaan yang tidak jauh berbeda. Jauh sebelum agama masuk, masyarakat Jawa sudah mengenal ajaran Ketuhanan, yang dikenal dengan ajaran Sangkan Paraning Dumadi. Agama Islam masuk bertujuan untuk menyempurnakan ajaran Jawa, kemudian pendakwah pada saat itu melakukan akulturasi budaya, yaitu memadukan dakwah Islam, menggunakan media pewayangan. Cerita wayang pada saat itu sudah mengalami banyak perubahan, serta sudah disisipkan pesan dakwah Islam, ajaran pokok yang disisipkan yaitu, Akidah, Syariah, dan Akhlak

Introduction
The small intestine is where most conventional oral formulations are mostly absorbed. This restricts their usage in the treatment of several colon disorders since the medicine must act topically at the site of inflammation. This opened the door for the development of an intelligent colonic drug delivery system, which enhanced therapeutic effectiveness, decreased dosing frequency and potential side effects, and increased patient acceptance—particularly in situations where enemas or other topical preparations might not be sufficient to treat inflammation alone. This study's primary goal was to develop a smart medication delivery system based on pH-sensitive polymeric formulations made using a free-radical bulk polymerization technique. In the formulations, 5-amino salicylic acid was used as a model drug and Capmul MCM C8 was added to increase bioavailability. The in vitro swelling and release evaluation showed that the developed system may be able to delay drug release under conditions that mimic the stomach and small intestine while triggering it under conditions that mimic the colon, indicating its potential usefulness as a smart colonic drug delivery system.
Materials and Methods
Hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA), Methacrylic acid (MAA), Dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA), 5-amino salicylic acid, ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA), disodium hydrogen phosphate dodecahydrate, azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN), potassium chloride, sodium chloride, potassium dihydrogen phosphate, BRAND® stopcock grease, sodium dodecyl sulphate, and sodium hydroxide were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich. Capmul® MCM C8 was purchased from ABITEC. Hydrochloric acid (37%) was purchased from Biosolve Chimie.
Preparation of Intelligent Pellets: Nine pellet formulations based on HEMA, MAA, and/or DMAEMA monomers were prepared utilizing a free-radical thermal bulk polymerization technique [1]. The pellets were loaded with 5-amino salicylic acid and capmul MCM C8 as a dissolution enhancer and model drug, respectively. Pellets' Swelling Studies: The pellets' in vitro swelling behavior was examined in a biobase thermostatic shaking water bath SWB-A at 37 °C in buffers with equal ionic strengths at pH 1.2 and pH 7.4. The equilibrium swelling ratio and swelling behavior were examined as previously described by Bayan et al [2]. Pellets' Release Studies: The in vitro release of the model drug (5-amino salicylic acid) was examined using a modified Heelan and Corrigan method in a biobase thermostatic shaking water bath SWB-A working at 100 rounds per minute and 37 °C in buffers of equivalent ionic strength, at pH 1.2 and pH 7.4 [3]. After fitting the first 60% of the release data to the Korsmeyer-Peppas model, the release rate and mechanism of the medication were studied. The two-way analysis of variance test and Tukey's multiple comparison test (n = 3, p 0.05) were used to statistically examine all of the data. The graphics and statistical analyses were created using the GraphPad Prism software, version 9.4.0.
Results and Discussions
Figures 1-2 show the in vitro swelling profile and equilibrium swelling ratio of the pellets at each pH. When comparing the swelling profiles of HEMA-co-MAA pellets at pH 7.4 and pH 1.2, a significantly higher swelling was observed at pH 7.4. This may be attributed to the fact that these polymers' anionic pendant groups (MAA) were more ionized in the simulated intestinal fluid than in the simulated gastric fluid, resulting in stronger electrostatic interactions and increased swelling. At pH 1.2 compared to pH 7.4, the swelling profile for the HEMA-co-DMAEMA pellets was much higher. This may be related to the fact that these polymers' cationic pendant group (DMAEMA) were more ionized in the simulated gastric fluid than in the simulated intestinal fluid. Figures 3-4 display the in vitro release profiles of the produced pellets at each pH. In comparison to the HEMA-co-DMAEMA based pellets (F7-F9), the HEMA and HEMA-co-MAA based pellets (F1-F6) showed a greater ability to delay the release of the model drug at pH 1.2. When compared to the other formulations, the HEMA-co-MAA-based Pellets (F3-F6) showed a greater release rate at pH 7.4. With a cumulative release of almost 75% after 12 hours, F4 had the largest cumulative drug release at pH 7.4. After five hours at pH 1.2, this formulation attained a cumulative release of about 25%. An n value more than 0.5 and less than 1 was obtained for all pellets at pH 7.4 and for F7-F9 at pH 1.2, indicating an anomalous mechanism of drug release. This implies that diffusion and polymer swelling control the drug release in these formulations. At pH 1.2, F1–F6 pellets exhibited a n value lower than 0.5, indicating a Fickian diffusion mechanism.
Conclusions
The in vitro swelling and release investigations showed that F4 may be able to postpone the drug release while it is present in the stomach and small intestine, while triggering its release in the colon. This makes it promising to achieve a colonic-specific delivery for the potential treatment of colon-associated diseases, such as inflammatory bowel diseases. Further work is required to evaluate the in vivo behavior, biocompatibility, and safety of this system.

MANIFESTASI INEN PAER: KETERHUBUNGAN PEREMPUAN DAN ALAM PADA MASYARAKAT ADAT BAYAN LOMBOKDITINJAU DARI WACANA EKOFEMINSIME KRITIS
In ecofeminism, the feminine qualities in the relationship between women and nature become a subject of debate between two views: accepting or rejecting their closeness. Acceptance is seen as essentialist for idealizing feminine traits, while rejection risks affirming patriarchal subjugation. Critical ecofeminism offers a middle path, this approach is an integrative project developed by the author, inspired by the intellectual spirit of Val Plumwood, who coined the term "critical ecological feminism" emphasizing critical self-affirmation to explore oppression systems without romanticizing the connection. This perspective forms the basis of the author’s reflection on the relationship between women and nature within the Indigenous Bayan community, analyzed through the lens of critical ecofeminism. The research employs a reflective-critical approach. The findings of this study reveal the following: 1) Nature and Earthothers within the Bayan Indigenous community are seen as active agents, regarded as subjects with their own souls, emotions, and unique characteristics. 2) The community respects diverse female experiences through the concepts of Gumi Nina, Gumi Bayan (Bayan Earth, Women's Earth). The term nina (women) reflects the unique characteristics of the Bayan Indigenous community, which upholds principles of non-domination, non-aggression, non-capitalization, non-ownership, and non-privatization in their leadership and environmental management systems. 3) The Bayan Indigenous community, through the concept of Inen Paer, does not view the closeness between women and nature as directly identical, as seen in the feminization of nature, such as the concept of Mother Earth, which implies that the mother is the Earth. Instead, Inen Paer means the Earth has a mother, namely Neneq Kaji Saq Kuase (the One Almighty God). 4) The domination of nature in the Bayan community, particularly against women, creates situated knowledge that becomes limited. Domination over nature by the state, through restrictions on traditional management spaces, has led to epistemic injustice. 5) The emancipatory politics advocated by the Bayan Indigenous community and their partners address not only the recognition of rights but also the fight against structural and epistemic injustices stemming from state domination.

MANIFESTASI EKUILIBRIUM DALAM KOSMOLOGI MASYARAKAT ADAT BAYAN DITINJAU DALAM PARADIGMA ECO-PHILOSOPHY
The phenomenon of environmental degradation is inseparable from every human activity that has consequences. This is further exacerbated by modern conservation and industrial logic, which view nature solely as a resource, thereby depriving nature of moral consideration. In this framework, humans become the center of value, where nature and other non-human entities only hold value when aligned with human benefits and measured by human interests. This contrasts with the understanding of indigenous communities, who are able to build an integrative relationship with nature and possess a romantic perspective in understanding their connection with it. This includes the principles of the Bayan indigenous community, whose livelihood depends on natural resources, leading to an intense social practice with nature. This has shaped the Bayan people's ethical view that nature is not merely understood as a resource asset but as part of a broader biotic community, including humans who are interconnected as part of that community. This intense relationship has existed for a long time and continues to be passed down, so that wetu telu as the philosophical basis of the Bayan people has become a social identity that not only teaches about relationships with God and fellow humans, but also encompasses human relationships with nature, which implicitly forms the ecological consciousness of the Bayan indigenous community. This study examines the cosmology of the Bayan indigenous community as a form of philosophy of life that is not only spiritual but also manifests itself in social practices and ecological management, particularly through the philosophy of wetu telu.
This type of research falls under the category of field research, which explores phenomena in their natural environment. This study employs a triangulation data collection method, comprising observation, interviews, and documentary analysis. Data findings are processed through data reduction, classification, presentation, interpretation, and conclusion-drawing. The data is then analyzed using Henryk Skolimowski's echophilosophy theory. In this theory, Skolimowski explains several key concepts such as Life Oriented and Values, spiritually alive, concerned with wisdom, environmentally and ecologically conscious, politically aware, socially aware, individually responsible, and tolerant of transphysical phenomena. These key concepts are used by the author to explain the relationship between humans and nature in the cosmology of the Bayan indigenous community.
The research findings explain, first, the Bayan cosmology, which is passed down through the wetu telu philosophy, becomes a lelakaq story that shapes human moral understanding as custodians, that is, preservers, protectors, or beautifiers. Second, the interpretation of nature as gumi nine or gumi mengina affirms the identity of women in traditional rituals. In Bayan customary practices, women are not only positioned as symbols of fertility or biological reproduction, but also as active participants and holders of authority in customary rituals. Third, Bayan cosmological praxis is reflected in daily activities such as land clearing, agriculture, and selametan rituals, which are based on customary norms such as the concepts of pemaliq and awiq-awiq. Fourth, with strong local characteristics, such as land, springs, forests,
and climate, Bayan cosmology has the potential to be a form of contextual bioregionalism philosophy rooted in the ecological experiences of the Bayan indigenous community. This is also pursued through the establishment of the Bayan Customary School as a space for internalizing customary values, and the community's participation in organizations to respond to ecological phenomena. This makes Bayan cosmology not only emphasize conce
