Eittss,,,do you know abaout stories behind the beauty of the kelud mountain?.
This story happened in period of the Majapahit kingdom during the rule of King Brawijaya.
That time the king Brawijaya famous for his policies to lead Majapahit.
The King is also famous because of the beauty of her daughter named
'Dyah Ayu Pusporini'. The Princess beauty makes many nobles and young
people in the region and even outside the territory of Majapahit wanted
to marry the princess.
This situation made the king confused, as king he should be fair and
should not be favoritism to youth who wants to prupose marriage the
princess. For that, he held a contest. The competition was open to all
people and not just limited to the nobility. Essentially anyone who is
able to lift two Gong (a type of Javanese musical instrument which way
to ring it sounded way) it will serve as king Brawijaya law. Two gong
was a government-owned heritage and famous Majapahit miracle. One such
name is 'gong Kyai Sekar Delima'. None of the young man who tried to
contest it and managed to lift the gong Kyai Sekar Delima. Until the
time limit, and the contest will be closed comes the young man said
could move two gongs heritage and hopes to join the competition king.
The king, duke and many peoples in contest surprised by the presence of
the young man. The young man who has a stout body and a tangible head of
'OX' named Lembu Suro . The king invited Lembu Suro to try to lift the
two Gongs. And beyond expectations, Lembu Suro so easily raised both
belonging to the royal heritage of Majapahit. The whole cheering
applause for the success of Lembu Suro.
But unlike the case with the Princess,Dyah ayu pusporini. She cried and
complained to the assistant that she does not want to have a husband
like Lembu Suro.
A time, after the contest princess asistant give advice to Kanjeng
Dyah Ayu Pusporini to challenge back the Lembu Suro to make a 'well' in
the top of the mountain kelud before he became her husband in overnight.
Something that they think is impossible to do by Lembu Suro. And hope
Lembu Suro fail, so do not be married to the princess dyah ayu.
Lembu Suro agreed that the princess request. Finally, to follow the
desire of the princess, Brawijaya king, duke, warriors, the princess and
lembu suro together to the summit Kelud to make 'wells'. Unexpectedly,
make a well in the peak Kelud is not difficult for Lembu Suro.
The princess began to worry, and when the lembu suro will finish the
job, princess cried and complained to the king that he does not want to
have a husband like Lembu Suro. King Brawijaya hesitated, as a father he
did not want to see her daughter grieve. But on the other hand, as a
king he must keep his promise to the Lembu Suro. And after thinking,
Brawijaya order his soldiers to seal the hole that has been created by
Lembu Suro with a stone. Warrior king agreed orders, and all the
soldiers deployed to seal the well hole with stones, forming a mountain
peak. Lembu Suro inside moaning for help. But the groaning Lembu Suro
was ignored by the king, princess and the soldiers. Until finally come
out of the Lembu Suro oath. That the king and Princess would receive
retribution for heinous acts. "Just wait a moment later times growing so
very crowded so I will mTake KEDIRI become a KALI, BLITAR become LATAR
and Tulung Agung become GUNUNG", said Lembu Suro.
King and his entourage worried about the Lembu suro oath, and eventually
made a huge dike to block the oath Lembu Suro (large embankment was now
well known 'gunung pegat') and make the event 'larung sesaji' or
'condrosengkolo' to avoid bad thinks caused by Lembu Suro oath.
Friends,.. We can take the moral of the story above. That:
1. Do not underestimate someone just because of their physical look.
Like a famous quote "Dont just the book by the Cover". because may be
something ordinary stored the power / intelligent extraordinary,,,like
Lembu Suro
2. what we sow so shall we reap. plant kindness to expect kindness. And
do not do evil to others if you do not want to get a similar reply
