why there punakawan?

Figure punakawan that consist of semar, nala gareng, petruk, and bagong, figures always menunggu-tunggu in every leather puppet presentation at java. actually, in original leather puppet story there is no figure punakawan. punakawan only" soft language" and " communicative language" created by sunan/guardians at java soil. figures punakawan made in such a manner medekati multifarious java society condition kind. guardians in islamic religion distribution always see condition masyarakat--baik from also from culture that bloom moment that. leather puppet is a effective media to submits this mission. but, guardians looks at that leather puppet story that carried from country originally, indians, obvious a lot smell hindu, animism, and menamisme. they also see pakem indians leather puppet less communicative. only asked to sit quiet see the mastermind perfomings lakon. sure not everybody want to enjoy scenes by scene a kind of this all night long. so, guardians creats a figure sekira can to communicate with onlooker, flexibleer, can to accommodate onlooker aspiration, funny, and above all, in perfoming figures punakawan this the mastermind can freeer submit the mission because can not too bound in pakem.

Figure punakawan memainkkan in session flutter. if payed accurately there resemblance in every puppetplays between one lakon and lakon other. in every leather puppet game beginning usually there is no scene bunuh-membunuh between tokoh-tokoh up to lakon flutter perfominged. why? in javanese philosophy, this matter is interpretted that don't our emotion memperturutkan in overcomes every problem. do all quietly, without pertumpahan blood, and major meeting. cermati formerly existing problem, don't conclude before detect the problem. when lakon flutter finished perfominged, then there scene that describe battle and pertumpahan blood. that can be interpretted that if meeting can not be done so there is a way of other that be goed in maintained truth. in islam even also, every religious proselytizing that done must use stages not differ from existing stages in the world of perwayangan this. in invite in truth/prevent kemungkaran, proselytizers initially must give warning (bi lisani) well; otherwise want, send a warning hardly; otherwise want, we can use our maximal ability in strive for penega truth (belong jihad, may be). well, lakon flutter describe crystal clear or open all errors, from dimly appear clear. this be a result from a famous prayer allahuma arinal haqa warzuknat tibaa wa'arinal bathila warzuknat tinaba. [yes allah tunjuki true appear true and give to me strength to run it, and tunjuki wrong appear wrong and give strength to me to avoid it. all be clear which true and wrong. up to end from leather puppet story, the figures that reside in white stripe will beat battle will oppose crime, after genuinely detect which true road and understand the problem.

figure name meaning

does meaning that implied in every figure punakawan this? let us perceive one by one:

semar: the original this figure comes from arabian language ismar. in word java tongue is--biasa read se. take example istambul be setambul. ismar mean nail. this figure is made pengokoh (nail) towards all existing truths or as. advicer in look for truth towards all problem. nail here can also memfungsikan as alive guide, pengokoh human life. what pengokoh that human life? bone other than religion. so that, semar not figure that mempuja, but creation semar only symbolization creation from religion as alive principle every people haves.

nala gareng: also mengadaptasi from arabic words naala qariin. in also word naala qariin be nala gareng. word naala qariin, mean to get many friends, this is as according to religious proselytizing guardians as religious proselytizing expert to get as much as possible friend (people) to return kejalan allah the almighty and most worthy of praise with wise attitude and good hope.

petruk: mengadaptasi from word fatruk. this word is base word from a mysticism advice that sound: fat-ruk kulla maa siwallahi, with the meaning: leave all anything besides allah. advice then be character guardians and missionary at that time. petruk also often called kanthong perforated mean hollow pocket. the meaning that every human must menzakat the treasure and extradite the body soul to allah the almighty and most worthy of praise sincerely, selfless and sincere, like the perforated pocket without hindrance.

bagong: come from word baghaa that mean to struggle. that is struggle towards evil and keangkaramurkaan. in version other word bagong come from baqa that mean eternal or eternal, will mean all only eternal alive after at hereafter later. only allegorized to call on ngombe world (merely call on to drink).

figures punakawan also functioned as pamomong (nurse) for another leather puppet figure. in principle every human wants the name pamomong, remember the weak human. pamomong can be interpretted also as patron. every human should always ask protection to allah the almighty and most worthy of praise, as introspection attitude towards all weakness in self. here's attitude philosophy pamomong that described by figures punakawan.

how does lamentable if several figures punakawan like semar mempuja-puji within reason god by partly belief follower. while all existing figures only is creation guardians to symbolize a conditon in their religious proselytizing mission distributes islam. for example semar told as a god (bathara ismaya elder brother bathara teacher) that go down to earth with incarnate to be human usually to run a holy mission. this matter is actually enough correct to describes allah manner the almighty and most worthy of praise demote islam in mankind without present direct allah figure as god on earth. undoubtedly all humans will be islam, if direct allah distributes islam under the sun. then at where does human independence location, if it does? human is let to choose all existing teachings. remember, human is given freedom to determine the destiny later at hereafter, as according to the choice at world. so, figure semar as god even also must be transforminged as human figure formerly, for permanent watch over human god's will as free creature chooses. look at also word semar badranaya. badra mean happiness and naya mean policy. to aim happiness, that is by lead people wisely and drive it to beribadah to allah the almighty and most worthy of praise. country stable if semar bersemayam at turtle stable hermitage. the meaning hold penyuwunan (penyu-) or allah presence request the almighty and most worthy of praise. religious proselytizing mission that consist in here, told and interpretted self the meaning by the maker that is guardians.

as to bathara antaga (togog) and bathara ismaya (semar) final delegated to go down to earth (human world) to be adviser, and life true meaning prompter guardian and virture in human, which is on final semar chosen as guardian to knights berwatak good (pandawa)dan togog delegated as guardian to knights with bad character.

In story pewayangan especially yogyakarta and surakarta known figure existence panakawan. pana mean to detect, realize troubleshoot that faced and can to give solusi-solusi. while friend or conjugate besides mean to number four, also can memaknai as friend or friend. they are semar along with third the child, that is; gareng, child oldest, petruk second child and the youngest in the family nameds bagong.
Principal task panakawan menghantar and memomong knight figure in look for and achieve the alive aim. connection between panakawan and knight figure connection very bent. sometimes their connection likes slave and bendara, serve and served. sometimes their connection likes within reason king and the people, the and subject, worshipped and worshipped but correcter connection between panakawan and knight likes second friend mutual communicating, interacted, discuss with the idea to finish and remove problems that get in the way in the effort achieves a aim. they are mutual grind (to sharpen mind and idea), asih (compassionate and love), bring up (to watch over and take care).

Knight figure success in achieve the aim very base on panakawan. if the knight poseds low heart can to build harmonic connection with panakawan, want to open heart to listen and carry out suggestion from figure panakawan, and poor alive willing, undoubtedly success reached. but if happen on the contrary, failure that got. because so the dominant character panakawan in determine success the knight, so then appear a question siapakah actually figure panakawan? symbolize to what them? why number four?

By dozens article and opinion that elaborate figure panakawan. mengantaranya that figure panakawan god or nature universal administrator ngejawantah is poor human to cooperates and help human effort so that can achieve noble aim. there also that have a notion that figure appearance panakawan this concurrent with a low class movement that want to demo people strength sesunguh. king and nobles (knight) that, will not ever success deliver the country towards welfare and welfare otherwise supported and at emong by people. such as those which described in leather puppet story that is a success and win in a wrestling gets ‘wahyu’ figure always followed by panakawan.

Meanwhile there that elaborate that to four panakawan be simbol from create, taste, karsa and work. semar has characteristic juts that is white tuft. white tuft at head as simbol from idea, clear brainchild or create, . gareng has characteristic that jut that is knotty kero, bertangan cekot and berkaki lame. to three physical defect symbolizes taste. eye kero, vigilance taste. hand cekot accuracy taste. lame foot carefulness taste. petruk simbol from wish, willing, karsa that described in second his arms. hand in front of looped with the index finger, hind hand in position holds. if moved, second hand like second one who cooperate well. hand in front of indicate, choose what mengehendaki, hind hand has held tight what chosen. while work is symbolized bagong with two hands fifth wide opened the finger, mean hard worker. create, taste, karsa and work be one unitary inseparable. create, taste, karsa and karsa stay in one area that named individual or man innermost, symbolized knight figure. ideal human description is human individual description intact, where create, taste, karsa and work can occupied the function masin-masing harmonicly to then walk along aim noble aim. thereby be clear that between knight and panakawan has connection significant. knight figure success in the alive and achieve ideal aim if is provided a clear idea (create)s, honest heart (taste), wish, round determination (karsa) and want to strive (work).

Allegorized a coachman (human spirit) drive a carriage that pulled four horses (creates, taste, karsa and work). how does that carriage walk to achieve aim very depend on ably coachman in restrain and optimize the eazel. if the skilled coachman undoubtedly to four the horses compact berderap will face to aim target. hindrance that intercept at road will not make carriage will fall and not can to get up to return. most carriage will decrease speed a moment to then will face to return.

Up to now skin puppetplays besides to be also be one part of the custom ceremonies like: clean village, ngruwat and others.
To stage skin puppetplays in its entirety wanted approximately as much as 18 supporters. one person as mastermind, 2 person as waranggana, and 15 person as penabuh gamelan tevens wiraswara.

As before play, tetabuhan there is no the connection with main story, so has only as atmosphere warmer or messenger to step into to show actually.
As guide in will present skin puppetplays usually a mastermind will use pakem puppetry shaped puppetry book.
But there also mastermind that use note from old masterminds the erudition is got via breed. bevertheless, a mastermind is given to chance also to berimprovisasi, because pakem puppetry actually only full main story kernel.
To be more bring to life atmosphere and make to show to be more interesting, improvisation with this mastermind creativity holds part vitally. face makeup colour in has symbolic meaning, but there is no general rule here.
Red makeup colour for for example face, a large part show angry rude character, but figure setyaki that has high colour makeup colour not angry rude figure. so leather puppet character is not determined by face makeup colour, but also determined by element other, like form for example (pattem) itself leather puppet.
figure arjuna, both for has black face colour also yellow, Permanent arjuna with sifat-sifat that we have known. face colour difference likes this just for distinguish space and the appearance time. arjuna with yellow face colour mempentaskan for scene in kraton, while arjuna with black face colour is showing that he on the ro. such also the things of with figure gatotkaca, kresna, werkudara and others.
This leather puppet face colour difference will not be known by onlooker that see to show from hind sail.

Semar - Ponokawan(Java shadow play figure)


Semar Badranaya figure punakawan in java/sundanese leather puppet has character principaler than leather puppet babon (leather puppet with indians original figure). be incarnation from bambang ismaya eldest child from the hyang single.

Birth semar
The hyang wenang berputra one that named the hyang single. the hyang single then bigamous goddess rekatawati giant crab daughter that named rekata. on a certain day goddess rekatawati lay eggs and with strength from the hyang single. egg fly to look out on the hyang wenang, final egg hatch self with various miracle that espouse it, where does the egg skin be tejamantri or togog, white the egg is bambang ismaya or semar and yellow the egg is manikmaya then be teacher god.
in story other egg hatch menajadi sky, earth and light or twilight. so that said that semar dominant figure as earth patron.

Rivalry on successful in lead

They are bertiga very magic and all want to have the authority to like the father the hyang single, but be debate causing falling-out. narrated on (intelligence (? ) or keculasan (? ) manikmaya) actually he has willing equal to they, manikmaya submit race suggestion to gulp mount then vomit up it to return. from here many lessons that can be taken because that mount be a certain to implant or mengokoh earthing position but raced to gulped although then to vomitted up to return. then lesson that taken don't memperebut something that bot his right with don't incited by suggestion apparently good and logical.
Tejamantri that begin first race obvious fails to gulp mount, caused by insufficient the science so happen change towards the mouth. bambang ismaya then out for gulp a mount and success but something that has been gulped certain will change and bambang ismaya can not vomit up it to return so that happen physical change in the stomach that expands. according to science memadai but less to vomit up it to return.
Because gulp mount here's so form semar be big, fat and round. the body proportion in such a manner so that visible as a dwarf. the body proportion in such a manner so that visible as a dwarf, he is informed even go to tell periha second the elder brother to the hyang wenang. on message from manikmaya the hyang wenang will make that manikmaya that will get mandate as router and be king gods.

Consequence is eaten provocation and can not self

Bambang ismaya and tejamantri must go down kebumi, to take care breed manikmaya, both only may look out on the hyang wenang when manikmaya act inequitable. from here seen with eaten play one against another rumors obvious bambang ismaya and tejamantri go down only as breed patron manikmaya, good we can take lesson here and good our nation is this don't wants mengadu sheep again.
In story semar accuse to happen disagreement between teacher god that camouflage to be receipt wisuna with semar where does teacher god lose the batural existence because affection taste towards time god the child. semar experience duel with receipt wisuna bone other than teacher/the younger brother god self, where semar hitted weapon trisara so that causes semar accuse to the hyang wenang.

To go down degree and replaced name
The hyang wenang then replaced their names.
1. Manikmaya be teacher god.
2. Tejamantri turn into togog.
3. Bambang ismaya change name is semar.

Task and function

Elder brother from teacher god that dominate swargaloka. reside in earth to give advice or advice advice both for kings pandawa and also to audiens of course knight. has heritage hyang kalimasada menitipkan to yudistira that be principal heritage pandawa. has three childs from the wife sutiragen, in also east central java version: gareng, petruk, bagong. while in the sundanese version nameds: astrajingga (cepot), dawala, and gareng (the youngest in the family).
Semar badranaya village-head figure from village (cliff) tumaritis that be part from kingdom amarta under leadership yudistira. although the part village-head yet it is often memintai aid by pandawa and the children knight even by god kresna self when happen difficulty.

Intensity semar

Here only be unfolded just part from intensities semar, is;
This figure is with figure punakawan another is made by guardians mengantaranya sunan kalijaga in menebar islamic religion at java that pass culture acculturation. with figure existence punakawan, leather puppet story performance is more alive caused by dialog and interaction between mastermind (leather puppet) with audiens with be central masterminds in submit advice advice in lakon or exhibition may be can not by when not use figure figure punakawan. heritage term hyang kalimusada be epitomizing two creed sentences.
Another intensity has vision tejamaya, very memperebutkan by pandawa also kurawa or whoever that want to lead this nature, best dominate vision tejamaya this.
Because semar gulp mount so there that consider that semar be lamabang from also universe, equally semar assumed equal to fair queen intelligence, although part semar as assistant, the deed shows that he principal figure or main and not he is marginal figure or little chaffy. modesty in general javanese consider as sign that that man get of best of self and vinicity and has also earthly desire curb strength every time and not influenced by it. as eldest figure but semar doesn't want to hold worldly power desire.
Basically follow miracle myth semar this only just limited
