Adigang Adigung Adiguna

Nation of Indonesia , including Javanese , is known to have delicate sensibilities , as well as a high tolerance . That's why they do not like arrogant people . Namely , the proud, arrogant , haughty , arrogant , self-respect and tend to underestimate excess ( degrading ) the other person . In Java , arrogant considered a bad trait ( not commendable ) , and should be avoided because it will be a serious disruption to the community and the environment

In the view of the Java community , the proud have properties as unen unen - ( proverb ) , which reads : ' adigang adigung Adiguna ' . That is, the properties boast in strength , power , and skill possessed . Adigang , is a picture of a deer character who boasts tremendous power flight . Adigung is the arrogance of the nobility , descent , nobility , rank , position , or power possessed . Elephant is like a big and barely challenged by the other animals . Adiguna while boasting cleverness ( ingenuity ) like a snake that has the character of a lethal poison bite .

This proverb warns that excess often makes a person arrogant , forgetting self , so bad for the people concerned and others . Examples deer . No matter how fast his run too often overtaken by a lion or tiger , and if it is so his fate will be the only meal of the forest king . In the children's story is told also how big elephant was defeated by ants bite your foot to slip in the gap , or when the legs of the elephant pierced by a thorn . Meanwhile, the much-feared killer snake that was going to suffocate , broken bones , if the thug branches ( branches ) ori bamboo ( Bambusa arundinaceae ) .

Thus , the advantages of a person is something that is " useful " and " dangerous " . Useful if harnessed for the good , treacherous if only used for personal satisfaction and encouragement sheer lust . For example , sharp objects such as knives , sickles, machetes , and so forth . A sharp knife so it should be easy for slicing meat or vegetables when cooking . However , if used carelessly can hurt your fingers . Moreover , because of the sharp , strong , and pointy , a kitchen knife can also be misused to kill people .

As usual strategy in Javanese culture , generally every maxim does not stand alone and is often associated with other proverbs . For example , adigang - adigung - Adiguna had a close correlation with the vanity in the context of advising " wrote dumeh " . Meaning : do not be pretentious or just because .

Free translation is not like to show off and use what they have to hit , belittle , or insult others . For example : aja dumeh sugih ( not just because he is rich ) , and used his fortune to act arbitrarily . Why is that , because the property was not sustainable and can disappear at any time ( no longer owned ) . Aja dumeh kuwasa ( not just because he is in power when an officer / leader ) then do as they wish themselves . Why is that , because if people do not like again led in question can be removed from his office .

In Java, there is a belief that all humans have just deposited God . Thus ownership and even then is mortal . Without Countenance ( permission ) of God , might not have them concerned . In addition, the wealth of one's own reality also obtained the services ( delivery ) of others. For example , where traders may profit and abundant wealth without doing transactions with the public ? Based on the above opinion , this proverb advises anyone snobs do not have a nature .

Just because the rich refuse menyedekahkan part of his property to the poor . So just because the leader does not want to work together with neighbors . According to Javanese tradition , such an attitude is very disgraceful and hurtful to others. Thus , by combining the above two proverbs possible payload messages delivered dimudah will be parsed , in addition to the stronger power breakdown also entered the consciousness of thought , feeling , and heartstrings .

For example , the advice would be: " Aja dumeh SEKTI mandraguna pour duwe rich character Adiguna ula . Ora ketang wisane bath , nanging kesabet branches will pring ori wae bathang selawase dadi . " ( Free translation : " Just because magic then like a snake character . Though usually lethal , but hit just gebuk bamboo branches ori carcass will be forever . " ) .

Arrogant people can be analogized as a deer crossed in front of a crowd of a lion or tiger in the jungle , an elephant who accidentally trample anthill prickly shrub or bush , a snake that has been intentionally or not go to the home page of people in the township . Maybe once or twice survived . However , for all time so that pride will definitely be a stumbling block that makes him fell forward and kissed the earth can not bounce back ?

Aja Gumunan, Aja Getunan, Aja Kagetan, Aja Aleman

That's a philosophy that Java is still firmly held by the public until now . Although this seems simple , but the sentence has a meaning so deep and advice . In general, the meaning is " not easily astonished ; regret not easy : do not easily shocked - shock ; easily spoiled or not spoiled " .

Have you ever witnessed a phenomenon in our society , which is where most of the people among us are someone who gumunan or easily amazed . For instance when he saw the rich collections of his car lot or when looking businessman with assets scattered everywhere . Or were astonished to see people with physical or mental limitations , but able to prevail and famous . Among us there are still people who are so easily amazed to see all of it . Surprised the hell was natural , the problem is how you address the sense of astonishment it wisely. Surprised the heck is fine , as long as it do not necessarily think the short / shallow , much less prejudice . Remember , that everything it takes the process , nothing is instant !

On the other hand , there is also the meaning of " Aja Gumunan " with many people experiencing culture shock ( culture shock ) . Simply put it , try looking at some people who suddenly ngetop / fame , suddenly conglomerate , suddenly so important people / officials and so on . See and observe whether there are changes in attitude and behavior that sudden drastic ? As well as speaking style , the clothes , eating places, interaction , and so on . If there is a visible change drastically , then the fact that they have had the name culture shock . Of course there is nothing wrong , because it is the choice of every person's life . However we must remain very clever in putting yourself wisely . Do not get complacent !

" Aja Getunan " ! Yep, we as human beings must always be ready to face destiny and all things that befall us . Because we are not able to predict things that are beyond the limits of the human race . We will also never be able to fight his destiny . Suppose we lent a friend / neighbor a valuables or money , in the belief he would return it . But it turns out he actually eh pretend to forget or even evasive . Well in this case , we are trained to learn willingly , legowo or gracefully. Everything there will be consequences and retribution. So basically do not easily regret when you do something or anything positive .

" Aja kagetan " , meaning do not kagetan or do not easily shocked . We must learn to be introspective , vigilant and flexible . Because there is nothing impossible in this world . Everything that could happen round . Never underestimate the fellow ! Be fair and wise .

" Aja Aleman " , meaning do not be spoiled or pampered . Nan magic of this simple word , we can learn the lessons that life does not need to be mad compliments , little - bit 'm flattered , a little sigh and so on . People who tend aleman / spoiled / pampered normally would exaggerate little thing like an understatement / trivialize something that is big / important . Well of magic words " Aja Aleman " we learn that life must be fought with great tenacity , but also flows flexibly and wisely .

Such a simple interpretation can share the author of a Javanese philosophy of meaning and full of advice. Hope can be an inspiration for us all to live a life that is completely modern . We are sorry if there is one word in this interpretation .

Sura Dira Jaya Jayaningrat, Lebur Dening Pangastuti

I just found a piece of those words by accident in the motor plate someone on the street , at first I wondered why the Java language is so meaningful to the owner of the motor , because the sticker containing the word width to cover the numbers in such a vehicle . I remember those words and so until boarding a few minutes ago , I immediately turn on the computer , search on Google and found several references to the Javanese proverb . Apparently it is quite popular in the Google engine . My interest is getting stronger when reading briefly the meaning behind the Javanese proverb .

Broadly speaking , Sura Dira Jayaningrat , Melting Dening Pangastuti means is anger and hatred will melt with kindness or tenderness . Is one of the teachings of Raden Rangga Ngabehi Warsita (1802-1873) , a great poet of Surakarta .

Further elaborated that anger synonymous with violence , hatred synonymous with conflict , a combination of both causes division , hostility , conflict , struggle , and destruction of others.

While softness synonymous with peace , friendship , friendship and peace .

With tenderness , then feelings of anger , hate will erode. Infighting erased into friendship . Opposition to peace , and hostility to peace . And always remember that all forms of insolence would have lost by kindness .

Urip iku urup

A Javanese philosophy .....
One of the many Javanese philosophy guides us to the right person . However do not be surprised if it is minimal for the philosophy we can do given the very strong aurora worldly and thick envelop us .
Urip iku Urup ( Life 's flame ) has the meaning of life should membei benefit others around us , the greater benefit we provide would be better for us and for others , but no matter how small the benefit we give to others lest we be plaguing the society .
This extraordinary philosophical meaning , that we are born in this world not to stand alone , powerful and all just for ourselves, but we were born for each other , help and help others without any sense of self-interest . All religions peel it bahwasannya many humans as social beings have to one another and help to others .
Benefits that we give is like a blazing fire , the fire does not mean embers burn and destroy everything , but the fire has a meaning as a light that is always lit and illuminates every human step on the right path . Therefore we should have a value of life that always give the benefit of bright light that every step we and our brothers can walk toward the truth .
Do not our lives always make people restless , disturbing the peace because it does not fit our nature as a noble creature .
If we do something wrong it is to forget , but if the error is repeated a second time means it's a character .
Let's fill our lives with useful benefits and let's keep each step can be useful for all of us .

Wong jowo ki gampang di tekuk-tekuk.

This philosophy is also an expression which in Indonesian proverb is 'The Javanese it easy to bend-bend'. This expression shows the flexibility of the Java in life. Ease of ability to get along and live in any level either poor, rich, officer or messenger once. People who hold this philosophy will always work harder and always tenacious in achieving its goals. Philosophy is what makes Java tribal communities scattered all over the country and cherished by another tribe.

Mangan ora mangan sing penting ngumpul

'Eating is not important meal together'. This philosophy is a proverb. Maxim sentence is not appropriate if the actual mean. This philosophy is essential to democratic life. If we base our nation's democracy with the above philosophy I believe our country should be secure, peaceful and prosperous. 'Manganese manganese ora' symbolizes the euphoria of democracy, one party may gain something (power) and the other party does not. Unresponsive to anything keep legowo. 'Sing important collector' cling to symbolize unity, which means united for a common goal. I think the philosophy of 'Mangan ora important manganese sing together' is a philosophy that fits that could underlie the democratic life of the nation of Indonesia that goal is achieved.
