The second process is symbolization, which is
a standard feature of how cultural values, teachings, or philosophies manifest in daily life. The
symbols can be in the form of artifacts, which
remind people about the existence of these

Tugu Monument on the unity between citizens

signifies the MTKKS (Mt. Merapi-Tugu (the
landmark)-Kraton (the Sultan’s Palace)-Krapyak
(the stage) -South Java Sea) philosophical axis.
This symbolization is a non-linear process. As

process is continually connecting with different
forms of CEK.
