Abstract

TheBedhaya Dirada Metadance is performed by seven male dancersand is a symbol of
respect to soldiers who have died in battle. The number seven in the Bedhaya Dirada Meta dance
is closely related to the philosophy of Mankunegara I’s struggle. The basis of Mankunegara I’s
struggle in essence cannot be separated from the concept of leadership of the knights of Mataram
which promotes three aspects, namely religion, morality, and culture. Of these three aspects, its
seems that the main philosophy used as a basis for Mankunegara I’s struggle is the concept of
religious Islamic teachings in order to reach a level of perfection and to draw closer to God the
Creator.
Keywords: meaning, seven, bedhaya dirada meta.
