The Joged Mataraman contains characteristics namely sawiji, greged, sengguh, ora mingkuh, the implementation of which are wiraga, wirama and wirasa. The basic idea of these is the conviction of the unity of man and God. This study of sulukan wayang is aimed to understand, (a) the sulukan wayang; (b) the catageries of sulukan; and (c) the essence of its aesthetics and ethics, and (d) the relevance of aesthetics to the morality of the people.

The composition of the sulukan is based on special metrics, namely kakawin, kidung, and macapat. Based this matrics there are still found other special matrics. In the actual performance the sulukan wayang communicates moral teaching, namely the keeping of promises, the ethics of leadership, the pursuit of perfection.
