Our
ancestors in the past have done many kinds of traditional ceremonies
since in mother’s womb, birth, adulthood, marriage, until death.
The series of Javanese traditional ceremonies are the heritage in
which our ancestors pass to us. We should preserve these traditions
as cultural events that characterize us as a region and nation in
general. Unfortunately, with the development of the ages, traditional
ceremonies are abandoned by younger generations to search for an easier
practice. This fact is very concerning towards the preservation of
our tradition. Tjokrosuharto as a store that sells various attributes
of traditional ceremonies and crafts tries to preserve Javanese tradition
by supplying various products for traditional ceremonies ranging from
equipment to traditional dresses. We also provide information to our
customers about series of Javanese traditional ceremonies such as
Tingkepan Ceremony (mitoni-marking of 7th pregnancy month), Tedak
Siten, Marriage ceremonies, and etcetera. For this reason, we gather
various sources and literature related with Javanese traditional ceremonies.
The procedures of these traditional ceremonies symbolize daily life
of Javanese people which are careful for the reason to achieve physical
safety and mental wellness in life. If we go deeper in the meaning
of various traditional ceremonies, we will find that all acts of life
are prayers to God. It all excludes itself from superstitions.
