The location of the temple is approximately 100 km southwest of Semarang and 40 km northwest of Yogyakarta. This temple was founded by the Mahayana Buddhists around the year 800 AD the dynasty during the reign of Syailendra. In ethnic Tionghoa, this temple is also called 婆罗 浮屠 (Hanyu Pinyin: po luo fu tu)<br /><br /><span class="fullpost"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 230px;" src="http://indo-island.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/borobudur.jpg" alt="" border="0" />Many theories attempt to explain the name of this temple. One of them states that the name is probably derived from the word Sambharabhudhara, which means "mountain" (bhudara) where the slopes situated terraces. In addition there are some other folk etymology. Suppose that the word comes from the greeting Borobudur "the Buddha" who due to sound shifts to Borobudur. Another explanation is that the name derives from two words "coal" and "beduhur". The word supposedly comes from the embers of the monastery, while there is also another explanation where the coal comes from Sanskrit which means temple or monastery complex and beduhur meaning is "high", or to remind the Balinese language means "above". So the point is a monastery or hostel located on high ground.<br /><br /><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 230px;" src="http://cache.virtualtourist.com/2604442-Stupas_at_the_Borobudur_Temple-Central_Java_Province.jpg" alt="" border="0" />Historian J.G. de Casparis in his dissertation to obtain his doctorate in 1950 argued that Borobudur is a place of worship. Based on the inscriptions and Kahulunan Karangtengah, Casparis estimate the founder of Borobudur was named king of Mataram dynasty Syailendra Samaratungga, which they will build around the year 824 AD The giant new buildings can be completed at the time of her daughter, Queen Pramudawardhani. Borobudur Development estimated a half-century time-consuming. In the inscription Karangtengah also mentioned about the bestowal of land sima (tax-free land) by the CRI Kahulunan (Pramudawardhani) to maintain Kamūlān called Bhūmisambhāra. Kamūlān term itself comes from the first word that means place of origin, the sacred buildings to glorify the ancestors, the ancestors of the dynasty Sailendra possibility. Bhumi Sambhāra Casparis Bhudhāra estimates that in the Sanskrit language which means "Hill of the set of ten levels boddhisattwa virtue," was the original name of Borobudur.<br /><br /><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 230px;" src="http://biancatours.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/borobudur-32_resize.jpg" alt="" border="0" />Borobudur is a ten-story clearly illustrates the Mahayana school of philosophy. like a book, Borobudur described ten levels of Bodhisattva which must pass to reach the perfection of the Buddha. Kamadhatu symbolizes the foot of Borobudur, the world is still dominated by kama, or "low desire".

It represents a level of natural top, where the man was free from all desires and commitments shape and appearance, but have not reached nirvana.

Have you ever heard Dreamland beach in Bali.? I never asked you this time a trip to Dreamland Beach. Dreamland beach in the area called Pecatu. Still on the southern island of Bali. More precisely, a few miles before the Uluwatu Temple from Denpasar. Dreamland beach surrounded by cliffs towering, rock and surrounded by a fairly large around the beach. There was a video tape last one on the beach situation dreamland Bali is not natural as those who have been there. Pecatu area is now being built golf course and housing complex.

Living in the hill that contains lime, making them truly livelihood from agriculture that can not be expected to result. Then came Pecatu Graha project, sponsored by Tommy Suharto (the program said the people Kalao ga salah sih) in the time before his father was still in power. The plan, Pecatu Graha will be made of a housing complex and other tourist attractions other than land used pantai.Walaupun Pecatu Graha project is a land of "coercion", but residents are hoping Pecatu completed projects, and they could pursue other business tourism sector. That's why land around the beach called Dreamland (dream land), and its beach called Dreamland Beach. But it eventually abandoned the project because the rulers at that time already stepped down. Uh, the truth of this story was just 99%, so do not believe this fake story he he he.<br /><br /><br /><center><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/3bZOap5zGrU&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0x006699&color2=0x54abd6"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/3bZOap5zGrU&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0x006699&color2=0x54abd6" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></center><br /><br /></span>Adminhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17530740988152444715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1409073392240714565.post-18876657835174993522009-10-30T07:36:00.000-07:002009-10-30T08:03:20.884-07:00Lower Natural Beauty Coast Sea Manado Bunaken, North Sulawesi - Indonesia<img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLw17jdq997n-AWJW38Lijbt7uDV2LHapNx_q5rz4VQTG5Czd2ippnlGs2-dKfuR0xapjGx4OUcwXXsYuKYtQP4e7Xx_UPatgd47HUR0nHcoNnmrjAp15ZzQDo7_a4nvbsL_NYUPXFNjs/s320/bunaken-1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5398402710705726002" border="0" /> <br />Bunaken National Park is representative of Indonesian tropical water ecosystems of the mangrove ecosystems, seagrass, coral reefs, and land / coastal ecosystems.

Javanese gamelan has a softer tone and slow, unlike dynamic Balinese gamelan and Sundanese gamelan lilting flute and voice dominated. The difference is reasonable, since Java has its own view of life that is expressed in the rhythm of gamelan music.<br /><br />Javanese worldview expressed in gamelan music is the harmony of physical and spiritual, harmony in talking and acting so as not to create an expression that explosive and create tolerance.

Further development after named gamelan, the music was used to accompany wayang performance, and dance. Time was not until later on some independent music and equipped with the voice of the sinden.<br /><br />A set of gamelan consists of several instruments, including a set of similar musical instrument drum called drums, fiddle and zither, xylophone, gongs and bamboo flutes. The main components that make up musical instruments in the gamelan is bamboo, metal, and wood. Each instrument has its own function in gamelan music show, for example, closing a gong played music and gave long after the previous balance was decorated by the rhythm of the music gising.<br /><br />Javanese gamelan is music with pentatonic melodies. A complete gamelan game consists of two rounds, namely slendro and pelog. Slendro has 5 tones per octave, ie 1 2 3 5 6 [C-D E + GA] with a small interval difference. Pelog has 7 tones per octave, ie 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 [C + D E-F # G # AB] with a large difference intervals. Gamelan music composition created with some rules, which consist of several rounds and pathet, bordered by a gong and the melodies were created in a unit consisting of 4 tones.<br /><br />You can see gamelan as an independent music performance as well as a dance or performance arts such as wayang kulit and ketoprak. As a performance, gamelan music is usually combined with the voices of the singers of Java (called wiraswara male singers and female singers called waranggana or sinden). Gamelan music performances that performance can be classic or contemporary gamelan. One form of contemporary gamelan music is jazz-gamelan as a combination of music with pentatonic and diatonic.<br /><br />One of the places in Yogyakarta where you can see the performance of gamelan is the sultan's palace.
