Suyanto (1990) in her book "Pandangan Hidup Jawa", that the cultural characteristics of Java are religious, non-doctrinal, tolerant, accommodating, and optimistic.
These traditional characteristics of Java give rise to javanese such as belief in the almighty god as a Sangkan Paraning Dumadi with all his qualities and greatness, with idealistic features belief in something immaterial and supernatural and inclined toward mysticism, putting more emphasis on substance than formal and ritualistic aspects.
Putting love as the foundation of human relationships, belief in fate and submissive nature, convergent and universal, and non-sectarian, leaning toward symbolism, cooperative, united, and peaceful.
