摘要：Environmental conservation in the Javanese-Indonesian community in the 19th century can be understood clearly from the ancient manuscript Serat Centhini. This manuscript was written during the reign of the Surakarta King, Sunan Pakubuwana V (1757 – 1881 AD). The original manuscript, written in Javanese script, is already damaged so this research instead uses a copy of the manuscript printed in Latin script and consisting of 12 volumes, published by Yayasan Centhini in Yogyakarta between 1988 and 1992. Following a careful process of reading, classification, and interpretation, it was found that (1) Serat Centhini contains two categories of conservation, namely natural conservation and social conservation. (2) There is more description about social conservation than natural conservation. Javanese cosmology views environmental conservation as a kind of union between man and God (manunggaling kawula lan Gusti) which is the pinnacle of the life philosophy of the Javanese. (3) Serat Centhini is an encyclopaedia of Javanese culture which contains information various fields of traditional Javanese knowledge that are still relevant to the modern life of today.
