OUR SUBUD WORLD<br />

CONNECT MAGAZINE <strong>2018</strong><br />

Besides these material aspects<br />

of the archives as stated above,<br />

Subud archives have a function to<br />

preserve and make available for future<br />

generations information about the<br />

latihan kejiwaan as it was passed on<br />

to us by Bapak and to preserve the<br />

historical evidence of the coming of<br />

the latihan.<br />

The intended use of a Subud Archives<br />

would be for incoming officers and<br />

helpers who wish to learn more<br />

about their job and what others have<br />

done before them; to help those who<br />

work in wings, affiliates, and related<br />

entities; to provide source material<br />

for Subud historians wanting to write<br />

the history of their country, region, or<br />

group; and for Subud members who<br />

want to progress in their personal<br />

development on the spiritual level as<br />

well as to understand more about<br />

Subud and its history.<br />

An archivist can tie together two<br />

or more subjects that are located<br />

in different parts of a collection to<br />

make the findings of the researcher<br />

broader or more specific. The use<br />

of name, place, and subject access<br />

points in the cataloging record draw<br />

collections and items together and<br />

complement information in ways that<br />

cannot be easily done in the usual<br />

time the archives user has to gather<br />

the information.<br />
