Batik in Indonesia has experienced remarkable growth, emerging as a valued commodity from a profound artistic tradition rich in spiritual values. Through intricate symbols beautifully woven into a piece of batik, our ancestors, the original creators of these classic patterns, conveyed hidden messages and life lessons to future generations. This makes the classic batik designs not only aesthetically appealing but also profoundly meaningful.

However, it is unfortunate that the development of batik has not been entirely comprehensive. There is a growing concern that the younger generation lacks a deep understanding of these spiritual values inherent in these patterns. The knowledge of the symbolic meanings behind classic batik patterns is not being adequately passed down to the present generation. It is hoped that the explanations in this book, to some extent, can help pass down the spiritual values of classic batik, particularly to future generations.
