[Tesis ini membahas pemaknaan terhadap situs Gunung Kawi dan ritual ngalap berkah. Terdapat dua makam yang dikeramatkan di Gunung Kawi, yaitu makam Eyang Djoego dan Eyang Soedjono. Situs yang terkenal dengan situs untuk mencari pesugihan ini merupakan sebuah ruang yang di dalamnya terdapat berbagai narasi dan persilangan kekuasaan untuk mempertahankan kepentingan pihak-pihak yang berkelindan, yaitu Yayasan Ngesti Gondo, Pemerintah Desa Wonosari, Pengurus Padepokan, dan Pramuwisata. Ritual ngalap berkah tidakhanya dilakukan oleh para tamu kepada kedua makam, tetapi juga para pihak yang berkepentingan kepada para tamu. Data diperoleh dengan pendekatan etnografi (field study) termasuk in-depth interview di Dusun Wonosari, Desa Wonosari, Kecamatan Wonosari, Kabupaten Malang, Jawa Timur dari bulan November 2014—Maret 2015. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa situs Gunung Kawi merupakan situs yang sangat menguntungkan bagi pihak-pihak yang berkepentingan jika ditinjau dari sisi ekonomi.
