Sasi Sebagai Locus Theologicus
Kearifan Lokal Untuk Etika Ekologis Dan Kepemimpinan Pastoral
Keywords:
Sasi , Locus Theologicus, Local Wisdom, Ecological Ethics, Pastoral LeadershipAbstract
The global ecological crisis highlights that environmental degradation is not merely a technical or policy issue, but reflects a deeper relational crisis between humans and nature rooted in moral, spiritual, and cultural dimensions. This article aims to analyze the transformation of the sasi tradition in Maluku from a practice grounded in ancestral beliefs into a theological interpretation within the Christian faith, and to examine its implications for pastoral leadership ethics. This study employs a qualitative approach through literature review and contextual-theological analysis, integrating perspectives from ecotheology and local wisdom. The findings show that sasi functions not only as a traditional ecological conservation system but also embodies ethical and spiritual values that can be reinterpreted within contextual theology. These values such as stewardship, communal responsibility, and ecological balance provide a foundation for developing a more holistic and ecologically oriented model of pastoral leadership.
