TARI REJANG LILIT DALAM UPACARA DEWA YAJÑA SEBAGAI DAYA TARIK PARIWISATA BERBASIS BUDAYA DI TANAH EMBET LOMBOK BARAT
Abstract
The art of rejang lilit dance performed by Hindu women in Dusun Tanah Embet as a
complement to the dewa yajña ceremony has a very important position in carrying out
Hindu religious ceremonies. In this regard, this rejang lilit dance also has the potential to
be a cultural-based tourist attraction, especially related to the implementation of Hinduism.
This study was designed in a qualitative descriptive method in order to describe the
performance of the rejang lilit dance in relation to the implementation of Hinduism and
also as a tourist attraction. Based on the results of this study, two findings were found
related to the performance of the rejang lilit dance. First, the rejang lilit dance as one of
the sacred dance types owned by the Hindu community in Dusun Tanah Embet is very
important in completing the dewa yajña ceremony activities which are carried out in
temples managed by the Hindu community of Dusun Tanah Embet. This rejang lilit dance

is a form of embodiment of a sense of devotion to Ida Sang Hyang Widhi Wasa and at the
same time embodies the splendor of the implementation of the dewa yajña ceremony.
Second, the performance of the rejang lilit dance in a series of dewa yajña ceremonies also
has the potential to attract tourists visiting the area. The rejang lilit dance performance at
the time of the melasti ceremony on the beach has the potential to be watched by tourists
who are traveling in that location. In this regard, it is necessary to think ahead that this
potential can be used as an aspect in the development of cultural tourism related to the
implementation of Hinduism
