Abstract
This article attempts to elaborate Eliade’s thought on a tradition in Java, namely Nyadran—one of the religious rituals or ways to respect and celebrate the spirits—as it presents the manifestation of the sacred or what Eliade calls as hierophanny. This way is maintained by traditionalists as they are open for something sacred and should even achieve the stage of hierophanny which reveals chastity and eternity. It discusses first about Mircea Eliade, particularly the critics and analysis on his works as well as the explanation on his views on the sacred and the profane and also on the myth and symbol; it then discusses Nyadran ritual itself in relation to Eliade’s conception.
