Encyclopedic overview

A depiction of the Garuda Pancasila on a poster; each tenet of the Pancasila is written beside its symbol.

Pancasila ( Indonesian: [pantʃaˈsila] ) is the official, foundational philosophical theory and state ideology of Indonesia. The name is made from two words originally derived from Sanskrit: pañca 'five' and śīla 'principles; precepts'.
