Lontar Sarasamuscaya is one of the Hindu religious literary texts rich in moral and ethical teachings. This text serves not only as a spiritual guide for Hindus but also contains universal values that are relevant to character formation, especially in educational contexts. This study aims to identify and describe the ethical values contained in Sarasamuscaya, as well as to analyze their relevance to character education in the modern era. The research employs a qualitative descriptive method with a content analysis approach. Data were obtained through textual analysis of the Sarasamuscaya and supported by relevant literature studies. The findings indicate that the Sarasamuscaya contains various ethical values such as honesty (satya), self-control (dama), compassion (karuṇā), patience (kṣamā), and the obligation to uphold dharma. These values align with the core pillars of character education promoted in Indonesia, such as religiosity, honesty, discipline, and responsibility. Therefore, the teachings of the Sarasamuscaya are highly relevant as a source for strengthening character education, particularly for students in Hindu-based educational institutions. This research is expected to contribute to the development of value-based curricula and encourage the preservation of lontar literature as a source of noble moral teachings.
