Abstract

This article aims to analyze Sansankudo tradition and its meaning among the Buddhist communitisin Wonomulyo which can be observed from the behavior and traditions carried out by these communities. Sansankudo tradition is conducted by the Buddhist community at Wonomulyo from time to time and already entrenched as one of the forms of the social identity of Buddhist communities as a unique community, and can be accepted by other groups outside the community. Sansankudo tradition, performed a marriage ceremony or ritual carried out by the Wonomulyo Buddhist community has a meaning of an association of two people bound in a family relationship to equally carry out the task of spreading the great law of “Namyohorengekyo” (Nichiren Daishonin Buddhism).
