Borobudur and Prambanan

by Heroe Bagoes on Wednesday, December 16th, 2009

Borobudur is a ninth-century Mahayana Buddhist monument in Magelang, Central Java, Indonesia. The monument comprises six square platforms topped by three circular platforms, and is decorated with 2,672 relief panels and 504 Buddha statues. A main dome, located at the center of the top platform, is surrounded by 72 Buddha statues seated inside perforated stupa.

The monument is both a shrine to the Lord Buddha and a place for Buddhist pilgrimage. The journey for pilgrims begins at the base of the monument and follows a path circumambulating the monument while ascending to the top through the three levels of Buddhist cosmology, namely Kamadhatu (the world of desire), Rupadhatu (the world of forms) and Arupadhatu (the world of formlessness). During the journey the monument guides the pilgrims through a system of stairways and corridors with 1,460 narrative relief panels on the wall and the balustrades.

Evidence suggests Borobudur was abandoned following the fourteenth century decline of Buddhist and Hindu kingdoms in Java, and the Javanese conversion to Islam. Worldwide knowledge of its existence was sparked in 1814 by Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles, the then British ruler of Java, who was advised of its location by native Indonesians. Borobudur has since been preserved through several restorations. The largest restoration project was undertaken between 1975 and 1982 by the Indonesian government and UNESCO, following which the monument was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Borobudur is still used for pilgrimage; once a year Buddhists in Indonesia celebrate Vesak at the monument, and Borobudur is Indonesia’s single most visited tourist attraction.

A tired old grandmother

by Heroe Bagoes on Thursday, December 10th, 2009

So just remember with my grandfather and grandmother … and it turns out life values could not be obtained with the bustle of life and all its complexity, these values can be obtained from a simplicity and adherence to the values of life itself… As evidenced by this grandmother.
A tired old grandmother….. Carrying on a labor market Yogyakarta Beringharjo… and grandmother (70 years). His daily living by providing services in carrying groceries Beringharjo market.

All this is done because of compulsion by the state. She was desperate to make a living in the market to survive Beringharjo feed themselves and their families.

Beringharjo market is a traditional market in Yogyakarta, located at the end of Jalan Malioboro, famous for its traditional snacks “Javanese snacks”.
