Sabbath, Nyepi, and Pandemic: The Relevance of Religious Traditions of Self-Restraint for Living with the ‘New Normal’

Wednesday Forum – 03 November 2021

This study focuses on the relevance of religious traditions of self-restraint, particularly Sabbath and Nyepi, in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. From an economic perspective, the pandemic interrupts a lifestyle marked by an unceasing process of production and consumption that affects almost all aspects of life. Such a lifestyle, known as ‘productivism’, has been confronted with ‘antiproductivism’ promoted by groups of Marxism-inspired intellectuals and activists. Employing the method of public theology, this study reveals that religious traditions of self-restraint prepare humanity to anticipate interruptions of regularity, such as a pandemic, in a way that is critical of productivism yet distinct from antiproductivism. From a spiritual perspective, the pandemic and religious traditions of self-restraint should be perceived as synergistic appeals to a balanced lifestyle that is socially, economically, and ecologically harmonious.

Yahya Wijaya is professor of public theology at Duta Wacana Christian University, Yogyakarta, Indonesia, and affiliated faculty member ICRS. He holds a ThM from Princeton Theological Seminary and a PhD from the University of Leeds. He has authored and co-authored books on public theology and Christian ethics in English and Indonesian; and published in several international as well as Indonesian journals in the areas of theology, business ethics, and philosophy.

L A B E L Seberapa penting sebuah label? Bagi makh L A B E L
Seberapa penting sebuah label? Bagi makhluk modern, label itu penting walau bukan yang paling penting. Ia menjadi jendela informasi sekaligus penanda diri. Dalam kacamata masyarakat legalis, label juga berarti penerimaan dan perlindungan. Namun, seringkali label itu disematkan oleh entitas di luar diri, terlepas ada persetujuan atau tidak. Karenanya, tak jarang label juga menjadi penghakiman. Dalam silang sengkarut semacam ini, perebutan kuasa bahasa atas label menjadi vital, terutama bagi kelompok rentan yang dimarjinalkan. Kalau kata teman yang alumni dusun Inggris , "label is rebel!"
