Method in Mabuk

Why ??? Method in mabuk

Anyone who has witnessed an authentic kuda kepang performance will be left with an unshakeable sense that there is more to kuda kepang than meets the eye. But what is it about the kuda kepang that is so captivating ? Hmmm .. perhaps it is the allure unknown.

Beyond and through the movement and music spurred by the sound of the whips wielded by the danyang and badal, as well as the presence of the masked creatures the dancers arrive at an elevated state, some expressing intense euphoria and others falling into trance. Kuda kepang practioners refer to this elevated state as mabuk.

Hmmm okey .. there's too long. I will continue it later since i think you all will be sleepy if i wrote too long.
