The Story of Den Bagus Yudha Wastu Pramuka

Ki Tauhid Nur Azhar

The tale of Den Mas Yudha is that of a heroic warrior who was forged in the crucible of education, mastering the science of olah kanuragan until he became invincible. Who knows how many times he fought for the sake of his beloved Motherland, which was often threatened by enemies from both foreign lands and his own country.

Fortunately, Den Bagus Yudha Pramuka, also known as Bintoro Gajah Oling or Toro Goling, possessed the stored knowledge of Lembu Sekilan, which made his skin impervious to sword and spear attacks, as hard as a rocky cliff.

The power of Lembu Sekilan was extraordinary, and when combined with the Siladri martial art, which was the foundation of the Pagaruyung silat, Toro Goling became a formidable warrior with a strong and agile body, making many girls swoon. He was as fierce as a tiger and as strong as an elephant.

History records that since the civilization of Mohenjo Daro in the Indus Valley began to develop pottery technology, humans have been seeking ways to create weapons.

The end of the Copper Age marked the birth of the metal age, and the Mycenean people, who built the Acropolis, became an elite group of warriors, feared by many for their long swords and sharp spears.

Mohenjo Daro, 4000 years before Christ, and Mycenean, Minoa, and Arkadia, around 3000 years before Christ, and the two Egyptian civilizations before Christ, with the great temple of Abu Simbel built during the era of Menes, followed by the era of the Pyramids of the Ramses and Amenhotep, up to Nefertiti, show that civilizations, aside from relying on metal, also did not stray far from river deltas.

Since 4000 years ago, the ancient Egyptians had built dams and irrigation canals, taught by the gods Sis and Osiris.

Behold, the Sphinx at the House of Temple Freemasonry in Washington DC, built in the 18th century, with one eye open and the other closed, fascinated by the phenomenon of the universe and contemplating the meaning of existence.

Thus, Toro Goling’s warriors were always identified with the desire for power, and the principle of “si vis pacem, para bellum” (if you want peace, prepare for war).

The best defense is to attack, as Johan Cruyff and others later applied in total football and Tiki Taka.

Until a great king, the founder of the Babylonian civilization, Hammurabi, created a universal law that, among other things, stated that the strong should not oppress the weak.

A new power emerged, the semiotic power of Phoenicia, and industrialization, which began with the discovery of the wheel and silk from the Mulberry silkworm by the wife of Xi Huangdi, the founder of the first dynasty in China…

Halahala Nilakantha is the poison from Mount Mandara, supported by the turtle Akupa at the bottom of the Kserasagara ocean, 11,000 yojanas high, and pulled out by Sang Hyang Antaboga at the command of Lord Shiva. All because the gods wanted to live forever by drinking the Amerta water.

Finally, Mount Mandara or Mandala Giri was brought to the land of Java on the back of Kurma Akupa and formed into a row of volcanic mountains in Pasundan, while Mahameru was placed on the back of Brahma with the Penanjakan peak.

Thus, the origin of the flying island of Jawadwipa could land and be rooted on the face of the earth. Toro Goling understood that all of this was an unlimited source of power that made the Javanese knights unparalleled and unmatched.

Toro Goling’s martial arts school was not in the Tidar Valley, where Lurah Bodronoyo was buried, no. Toro Goling was a direct student of the great-grandson of Syech Datuk Kahfi, who mastered the knowledge from the Serat Pamungkas, uniting the essence of the universe and the human soul.

Toro Goling, also known as Den Bagus Yudha Pramuka, was a foster child of Caruban Larang, who trained in the Baruna martial art on the Kejawanan beach and absorbed dark energy particles at one of the peaks of Mandala Giri, Ciremai.

At the time of Toro Goling’s birth, the Muria Peninsula, which was once separated from the island of Java by a narrow strait, shook. The Kadipaten Pati and Kawedanan Juwana were in an uproar.

The Samin people from the karst mountains of Kendeng spread the news, which was heard by the dry teak leaves in Perdikan Randu Blatung. Ki Ageng Samin Sentono whispered to his beloved student Batoro Koplak from the village of Bumi Ayu, “A great hero has been born, and the earth shook when he was released into the world… like the Chondrodimuko crater that refused to release Jabang Tutuko, alias the stainless steel human with fiber optic nerves, the knight of Pringgodani. The grandson of Antaboga through Dewi Arimbi, the super sexy goddess who successfully captivated the heart of Werkudoro, alias Jagal Abhilawa, in the story of Pandawa Sudra, where they were deceived by the Kurawa.”

Toro Goling, alias Den Bagus Yudha Pramuka, was indeed special. He was conceived for 45 weeks and born with a caul. There was no paraji from the western region (Pajajaran) or the eastern region, alias the country of Damar Wulan, Blambangan, which had a wise king named Minak Jinggo or Bhre Wirabhumi, but was opposed by Wikramawardhana from Majapahit because of his criticism of the throne for the people.

The Osing culture with its Gandrung is a resistant culture that fights against oppression not with armed anarchy, but by offering values of freedom of expression, able to open the caul of Toro Goling.

Until one day, while resting from exhaustion, watching over his wife and newborn child, Toro Goling’s father, Toro Margen, Bintoro Marai Gendheng, had a dream and received a revelation from an old grandfather who claimed to be Lengser Pamomong Rakyan Mandi Minyak from Galuh Kalingga, that only Nanggala Baru Klinthing, owned by the descendants of Dora and Sembada, abdi dalem Aji Saka, who were loyal, could tear open the caul of Toro Goling.

This was quite difficult because the descendants of Dora were currently wandering around the world with Boots, their monkey. Toro Margen didn’t lose his mind, he quickly sought out Panembahan Loring Pasar Klari, Senopati Giyarto Giyanti, because he had the knowledge of Dwi muka, alias Aji Banci Kaleng, with the mantra Posesif Naiff… the knight of Perdikan Baturetno who was excellent in guiding and broad in knowledge of olah bathin.

Under the guidance of Demang Prayugo from Kadipaten Ngantang Jenggolo, a skilled blacksmith from the foot of Mount Kelud who had meditated for 18 years in the upper reaches of the Kontho River, Senopati Giyarto Giyanti, who was often called GiGi Raffi, was indeed a capable figure.

Before Toro Margen conveyed his intention, he had already understood. Toro Margen was amazed. “Extraordinary…” he whispered. GiGi Raffi Soegi only smiled and said, “Extraordinary, what? I’ve already seen your status, what’s the point?”

In short, the heirloom Baru Klinthing was borrowed with strict conditions. The mantra had to be recited before Nanggala was inscribed on the caul. Baru Klinthing only accepted the mantra from Ayu Ting Ting… Apalah Cinta… which brought together the combined power of Pat Kwa Utara Selatan energy because it was sung together with the jawara Ustmaniyah, Raden Karemcem, who was skilled in playing the tempe bacem. Don’t bother, it’s not necessary… the closing was tangina ngina nginung den Inung nganggo sarung ketoke koyo lutung, katoke keri neng gunung…

Later, the story will continue when Toro Goling studies under Daeng Imang Salamang in the Bugis region, which will be continued on Mount Wurlali with Pendekar Ano Kodomo Molimo, who is an expert in the science of pelet. Good for lele or Nila. 🙏🏾

On a deserted beach at the tip of Tanjung Binga, precisely on the opposite side of the island of Kambing, a sleek Pinisi ship arrived, which seemed to have just crossed the vast ocean. Yes, it was true. The Pinisi ship had just arrived from a very long journey along the western coast of Swarnadwipa, starting from the Gandoriah Pariaman beach, passing through the Rakata Strait and splitting the Java Sea to reach Masalembu and Selayar.

Later, Mollingraff would attribute a false label to the sea, which he called Java. Because according to him, in the glacial era of the late Holocene period, this sea was originally just a river flow area. Which could be easily crossed.

Daeng Imang Salamang actually didn’t intend to end up in Bulukumba, he would meditate in the Leang Leang Maros cave, which had an aura much more powerful than Las Chaux and Altamira in the Andalusia region.

Daeng Imang Salamang, a brave warrior and master of all crafts, had just received new knowledge from Begawan Gandoriah Pariaman, Datuk Hendra Sutan Rajo Hutan. His return to Bulukumba was not without purpose, as he wanted to learn more about the hikayat (legend) of Nurdin Abdullah, which was hidden in a sacred cave in Bantaeng. This hikayat was similar to the Sureq i la Galigo, a source of human civilization’s first history in the world.

In the hikayat, King Langit La Patigana was worried about the succession in the world and called a limited meeting, which was attended by the leaders of the kingdoms of Senrijawa (Java) and Peretiwi (Mother Earth). The meeting ultimately chose La Toge Langit to become the king of the earth with the title of Betara Guru, and later married We Nyilit Timo, the daughter of the king of the invisible realm, Guru ri Seleng. Their twin grandchildren, Sawerigading, a boy, and Tenri Abeng, a girl, were separated since childhood.

Sawerigading, also known as La Madukeleng, fell in love with Tenri Abeng, but after discovering they were siblings, he wandered to heal his heart. He traveled to China, where he married I We Cu Dai and had a child named I La Galigo, a brave captain who became the commander of the 5 seas (including the Arctic).

During his journey, he encountered many strange creatures, which were recorded in the Sureq and the hikayat of Nurdin Abdullah, which Daeng Imang Salamang was searching for in Bantaeng.

Meanwhile, Raden Ian Mardikawan, also known as Agustusan, was lost in thought on the coast of Bulukumba. He had just received a message from his uncle, Bekel Toro Margen, asking him to prepare a sailboat to take his nephew, Toro Goling, to the Tukang Besi Spermonde Islands to be entrusted to Daeng Imang Salamang.

This was a heavy task for Raden Ian, who was gentle and melancholic, and often cried. But it wasn’t because his heart was touched, but because his eyes were irritated by the chili peppers in his post-harvest red onion industry.

After borrowing the magical Baru Klinthing pusaka from Dora the Explorer, Senopati Gigi Raffi Soegi, with the help of aji banci susu kaleci, asked for guidance on what to do with baby Toro Goling. And it was revealed that Toro Goling should be raised by Daeng Imang Salamang before studying under Syech Abdul Jalil from Tanah Merah and Syech Amongrogo in Gunung Dlepih Wonogiri.

Thus, Yosodipuro I fulfilled the mandate from Pakubuwono V to trace his history and report it in the form of the Centhini manuscript.

Demang Prayugo Ngantang, who was already very old, came with his young wife, Ayu Dewi, who was still a descendant of Dyah Sekartaji. Everyone would accompany and escort Toro Goling’s voyage from Bulak Amba. As a result, a small wooden ship, the Jung Jawa, was filled with powerful people: Demang Prayugo and his wife, Raden Ian Mardikawan, Senopati Gigi Raffi Soegi, and of course, Toro Margen and Toro Goling.

But fate could not be avoided, and luck could not be grasped. The Jung Jawa ship with the gulo klopo flag was suddenly attacked by a fierce storm in the Masalembu Sea. They were tossed about violently and drifted towards the island of Sapudi. Their relief at seeing the coastline was replaced by anxiety when they saw a sleek ship with a sharp bow and a black flag approaching. “Bajak Laut Bima…” Raden Ian whispered, stroking the hilt of his Kyai Prupen Geni keris, which could emit fire when dipped in spiritus and ignited.

It was a strange sight. Everyone was tense, Demang Prayugo was trembling and holding onto Ayu Dewi, while Toro Margen held Toro Goling tightly. Meanwhile, Senopati Gigi stared straight at the suspected enemy ship.

On the deck of the pirate ship, Kei Ano Kodomo, famous for his Komodo Jomblonya jurus, was giving orders to his crew, most of whom were not from Bima, but from the island of Sabu.

The people of Sabu, Adonara, and the children of the Sawu Sea were known for their bravery.

Let’s leave Daeng Imang Salamang’s journey in Bulukumba for now. We return to the open sea off the coast of Sapudi Island, where the Bima pirate ship was blocking the Jung Jawa ship from Bulak Amba, owned by Raden Ian Mardikawan, the son of a great ulama from the northern coast.

Kei Ano Kodomo, the pirate leader, with his sturdy build and Caucasoid features, looked through his binoculars and was shocked to see Raden Ian’s figure.

They turned out to be friends from the same school at the Padepokan Navigasi Laut Ngur Bloat Kei. Their teacher, Al Makmun, was a former Portuguese expedition Mualim who learned directly from Muhammad Idris in Sicily, who was the main cartographer of King Roger II around 1100.

Not only that, in Melaka, Al Makmun also studied under Ibnu Batutah, a fellow villager of Guru Idris from Morocco. The sea maps and secret routes were inherited as knowledge that was only taught to chosen students, and in the third generation, it was Raden Ian and Kei Ano Komodo.

There was a sea route that glowed with fluorescent algae at night, indicating the concentration of salt and the tidal current that could be used as an accelerator for ships when sailing.

The Kuroshiwa current outside Dasima Island, as well as the warm current at the outer edge of the Great Reef barrier, where the Aboriginal people lived, were all on the imaginary map inherited through oral tradition because it was very secret.

“Ahooooi….,” Kei Ano shouted. Not long after, the two friends met, and Kei Ano told them that he had intercepted all ships leaving from the direction of Masalembu because he hoped to get a metal cargo. “I’m making a flying chariot…” he said with sparkling eyes.

Jumping forward about 600 years, precisely on September 27, 1935, at Schipol Airport in Amsterdam, a handmade plane landed after flying for 18 days and being delayed in Dresden and Nifren Turkey due to technical issues.

The plane had the prefix code PK or Pax Kolonie, which means it came from the Dutch East Indies. The full code was PK-KKH, where KKH was an acronym for Kho Khe Hien, the owner of the Merbaboe supermarket in Bandung, who was the financier and pilot of the plane that brought PK-KKH to Schipol to participate in the Air Show.

The designer of PK-KKH was Laurent Walraven from the Luchtvaartafdeling or the Dutch East Indies aviation technical service.

PK-KKH was named W-2 because Walraven had previously made a series 1 with Captain Pattist.

Flying… it’s a human dream since the time of Icarus and Da Vinci in the Middle Ages. And Abbas Abu al-Qasim bin Firnas ibn Wirdas al-Takurini, a polymath from Andalusia who was also a skilled musician, was the pioneer of aviation and aerodynamics in physics.

He even tested his theory by jumping from a tower in the Mosque of Cordoba. He also discovered the “Miqatah” or water clock, which was very precise.

Ibnu Firnas, as he was called, was a figure who preceded Smeathon in calculating the lifting force and designing wings with fluid mechanics Bernoulli.

Kei Ano Kodomo exchanged stories with Raden Ian, saying that he received news from a Gujarati sailor that there was a prophecy about a hero from Jawadwipa who would master the knowledge of kadigdayan and the brilliance of the mind.

They both agreed that it might be a prophecy for Toro Goling. They also discussed news from a Pasai sailor about a strange ship that had docked in Barus, made from a combination of lightweight but strong metal alloys.

Alloy technology seemed to have been discovered centuries ago. Alloy is a combination, in a solution or compound, of two or more elements, and at least one of them is a metal, resulting in metallic properties.

Alloy is usually designed to have more advantageous properties than its components. But that’s not all, Kei Ano Kodomo had already started imagining a propulsion system inspired by the way squid swim.

Kei Ano carefully observed natural phenomena and thought that if air could be sucked into a special channel, compressed, and then expanded in a combustion chamber, and then continued to a turbine and exhaust nozzle, it would follow the Braython cycle in thermodynamics.

The hot compressed air released in the exhaust nozzle would produce a strong thrust to create speed, and in turn, would produce a difference in air pressure on both sides of the wing, resulting in lift.

Because they were so engrossed in their conversation, the two ships drifted away from the coast of Gayam on Sapudi Island. The strong current due to the pressure difference did not bring the two ships towards the coast of Bondowoso but rather towards the east, the Bali Strait.

The current strengthened as the ship entered the strait. The current was heading towards and at high tide, the direction of the current in February and August was the same, moving perpendicular to the coastline.

While the current to the north was at high tide. Meanwhile, at low tide, both in February and August, the current moved away from the Bali coast in the strait and moved parallel to the coastline in the northern waters of the Bali Strait.

The maximum current speed in August was 0.80 m/s, while in February it was 0.88 m/s. This current was also what brought the large family of Lemuru fish or Sardinella longiceps “visiting” Muncar Banyuwangi.

This fish is very high in Omega-3, or DHA/EPA, which is very good for heart and blood vessel health, as well as joints.

Lemuru and other pelagic fish, as well as the warm current at the edge of the Sawu Sea and the boundary of the Indian Ocean, brought the Balaenoptera family to Lamalera.

When they arrived, the brave men of Lamalera would shout; “Baleo, Baleo, Baleo…” Maybe the naming of the species as Balaenoptera also originated from there?

What’s clear is that Baleo is a whale, because Baleno is a car produced by Suzuki, and Balek No is when we borrow something and get charged by the owner .

This migratory journey is indeed a tradition for several species in the universe, not just whales. Salmon and Sidat do it too, although in the opposite direction.

Old Sidat will go to the ocean, while old Salmon will go upstream. Balaenoptera includes blue and gray whales.

According to the people of Lamalera, the blue whale is a blood relative and cannot be hunted. Pregnant whales are also not hunted. Such is the strong spiritual bond between the people of Lamalera and the giant sea mammals.

Toro Goling, the Malay Gurindam edition that never fades away.

When the Javanese junk ship with the gulo klopo flag and the Bima pirate ship drifted into the southern side of the Bali Strait, a Pinisi ship resembling Daeng Imang Salamang’s Pinisi landed in the kingdom of Lingga Riau.

Later, from one of the figures on the ship, Raja Haji Fisabilillah, the ruler of the Lingga kingdom, was descended. They were actually Bugis sea people.

As Syech Yusuf who set sail across the Indian Ocean and stopped by Madagascar and Mauritius to reach the land of Southern Africa, braving the Dutch East India Company, so too did the young Datuk Hamzah Fansuri’s spirit of rebellion against the colonial powers.

The Bugis Riau Kingdom, which later expanded to become the founder of the Selangor Sultanate in the Malay Peninsula, gave birth to beautiful and esthetic gurindam (poems) and tausiyah (advice). Who doesn’t know this story?

If one does not hold onto their faith, their name will not be remembered.
If one knows the four (pillars of faith), they are the ones who have ma’rifat (gnosis).
If one knows Allah, they will not go astray.
If one knows themselves, they have known the Lord of the universe.
If one knows the world, they will know what is fleeting.
If one knows the afterlife, they will know the harm of the world.

Thus, Datuk Hamzah Fansuri’s legacy will become a legend on the island of Penyengat, and his contributions to the structure of language will still be remembered today.

Datuk Hamzah arrived in Lingga not without reason, as news from the Bajau people in the Tukang Besi Islands had brought him to raise the sails to the west of Nusantara.

Since Tome Pires wrote about the spice islands with the Al Mamluk archipelago as the primadona, the Malacca Strait became crowded with various foreign ships.

The Portuguese Viceroy in Goa, India, became the ruler of the sea, controlling the silk road of the sea. It all began with the glorious victory of Admiral Alfonso de Albuquerque in 1511, conquering Malacca and building Fortaleza Malacca, which became a strategic outpost to monitor the Strait of Malacca.

It all started with the three legendary voyages of Vasco Da Gama and the implications of the Treaty of Tordesillas. The news from the Bajau people, the rulers of the sea, signaled that setting sail to the west was a blessing.

Datuk Hamzah, who was actually a relative of Karaeng Galesong and Sultan Mahmud Karaeng Pattingalloang, a brilliant scholar from Tallo, received the mandate as a leader since 1641.

Imagine that at that time, a young man from Tallo had knowledge equivalent to Galileo Galilei from Italy and Copernicus from Poland, who believed in a round earth and the sun as the center of the solar system. Meanwhile, Galesong or Maninrori Kare Tojeng Karaeng was the commander of Gowa who refused to surrender to the Bongaya Treaty of 1679 and continued to resist against the colonial powers.

In fact, Galesong had even occupied Mataram with a brave marine corps from Gowa.

Datuk Hamzah had a secret mission to prevent Portuguese influence in Nusantara by establishing a kingdom at the western entrance of Nusantara.

Toro Goling, Dark Energy

Two ships that drifted in the Bali Strait were carried by the combined currents of Ekman, Pasut, Termohaline, and Geostropic towards the east. Ekman is a surface current influenced by wind, while Pasut is a tidal current, and Termohaline is a current influenced by density (possibly due to salinity) and gravity.

Geostropic is a current caused by the Coriolis force at the equator. The two ships were stranded far away on the west coast of Sumba Island, near Bondokodi.

The night sky was clear, and all the stars in the Bima Sakti constellation shone brightly. Toro Goling cried out of hunger. Meanwhile, Raden Ian Mardikawan was deep in thought, remembering that several years ago he had ridden a horse from Bondokodi to meet Rato Angkasa Timur in the Lendo Ngara hills.

Was it fate that brought Toro Goling here? Before being taught by Daeng Imang Salamang, did Toro Goling have to master the universal catudaya knowledge first?

Centuries later, researchers would seek explanations from the knowledge possessed by Rato Angkasa Timur. In that era, the mystery of the universe revolved around matter and dark energy.

Have you heard of Oort and Babcock? They were astrophysicists around the 1930s who observed anomalies in galaxy curve rotation, where the speed of star revolution near the galactic center and outer stars was almost the same.

What does it mean? There is an antithesis where the inner stars should revolve faster due to their shorter trajectory and closer distance to the gravitational center. This condition is puzzling and not an anomaly, as it occurs in all galaxies.

It’s like the marketing gimmick “Orange is the new Black”. Different but not unusual. It turns out that there is a role for dark matter, which is estimated to be 6 times the amount of normal matter, whose elements are listed in the periodic table.

In fact, the elements mapped by Mendeleyev only account for about 4.6% of the total volume of the universe. Dark matter is the guardian of the functional stability of the universe, and what about dark energy?

Dark energy is hypothetically linked to the initial energy of the universe’s creation, just like the microwave background radiation discovered by Arno Penzias, which is believed to be the initial frequency of the universe’s creation.

Dark energy is also attributed by some scholars as the potential energy of the “empty” space in the universe. The interstellar and intergalactic space that contains mysteries.

It’s similar to the concept of antimatter, where the principle of complementarity places antiprotons paired with positrons, just like protons paired with electrons.

All elements in the universe are built on these principles.

Also, with the quantum interaction mechanism, which involves probability and uncertainty, as described by Heisenberg, opening up many alternative possibilities that can occur in time.

This interaction can sometimes negate the presence of space and time if using the quantum entanglement approach.

The position of two particles with superposition will result in spin similarity with opposite directions.

So it’s no wonder that Toro Goling can absorb Rato Angkasa’s knowledge about entanglement and dark energy, which can be utilized, making space and time relative, and the energy that will be generated will almost never run out.

(to be continued)
