The development of Yoga until it reached Bali
It is mentioned in the history that Bali and Seleparang which is now famous as Lombok were floating. That was why at that time Bali was known as Nusa kambangan which means the floating island. Hyang Pasupati, a yogi from East Java pitied the condition of Bali which was very poor. He then meditated to ask for help from Bedawangnala ( a giant turtle), a dragon named Ananta Boga with the kundalini power from the water, a dragon named Taksaka with the kundalini power from the air, and the dragon named Basukih with the kundalini power from fire to move the part of Semeru mountain to Bali and Lombok. In Bali it became Agung Mountain, and in Lombok became Rinjani Mountain. It happened in the year of 89. In the year of 109, Hyang Pasupati asked his children, Betara Hyang Genijaya, Betara Hyang Putranjaya, and Betari Hyang Dewi Danuh to go to Bali and keep the island in balance and harmony. Betara Hyang Genijaya lived in Lempuyang mountain which is now becomes Lempuyang temple, Betara Hyang Putranjaya lived in Agung mountain which is now named Besakih temple, and Betari Hyang Dewi Danu hived in Ulun Danu Batur, which is known as Ulun Danu Batur temple. As they came to Bali, the condition of Bali was getting better. Then the other Hyang from Java also came to Bali, they were : Hyang Tenuwuh lived in Batukaru mountain which is now becomes batukaru temple, Betara Manik Gumawang lived in Beratan mountain Bedugul, Betara Manik Galang in Pejeng, and also Betara Hyang Tugu lived in Andakasa mountain which is now called Andakasa temple.Furthermore, Rsi Markandya meditated in the area of Demalung, Dieng Mountain. He then went to east and meditated in Raung Mountain, East Java with his 400 followers. He went to Bali to save the island, he went directly to Agung Mountain but unfortunately all of his followers died because of disease. Facing that fact, he returned to Raung Mountain and started to meditate again. After that, with 8oo followers he went to Bali again. He went to Tohlangkir which is now called Besakih. In his meditation, he got a vision from god to plant Panca Datu or five kinds of metals if he wanted his followers to be safe. Panca Datu are just like an antenna which is planted to access the energy of the entire world in order to keep it in balance. This ritual is still done until now in Bali. After doing this ritual, he continued his journey to the west in the area of Ubad which is now named Ubud. He was so attracted with the situation of this place; so that he chose this place as the first place he spread his theory. As the symbol of his origin, in the area of Taro, in the north of Ubud he built a temple named Gunung Raung temple which has the same name with the mountain in east Java. In the south of that temple, in the area of Payogan village he built a place for meditating and practicing yoga named Pucak Payogan temple (it is the place where Guru Made Sumantra was born). And in the area of Campuhan Ubud he built Gunung Lebah temple. It is also mentioned in the history that there were so many holy men (Rsi) from Java came to Bali in order to help the spiritual and peacefulness of Bali. All of the Rsi also spread the theory of Yoga. As the result, many ideologies of Yoga with various backgrounds such as Hindu, Buddha, Shinto and Tao then appeared. Those ideologies then melted and united, so that a unique Yoga named Ancient Bali Yoga came into being. The spreading of Yoga couldn't also be separated from the protection of the kings in Bali as what happened in the land of Java. Those kings were:
- Sri Kesari warmadewa in Bedahulu in the year of 882-915.
- Sri Ugrasena Warmadewa in the area of Bedahulu and Tampak Siring in the year of 915-942.
- Sri Candrabhaya Singha Warmadewa in the year of 942-991.
- Sri Dharma Udhayana warmadewa, in the year of 991-1018.
- Sri Whardana Markata pangkaja Tunggadewa in Gunung Kawi Tampak Siring in the year
of 1018-1049.
- Sri Aji Hungsu in Gunung kawi Tampak Siring in the year of 1049-1077.
- Ratu Sakalindhu Kirana in Gunung Kawi Tampak Siring in the year of 1077-1101.
- Sri Suradipha in Gunung Kawi Tampak Siring in the year of 1101-1119.
- Sri Jayasakti in Gunung Kawi Tampak Siring in the year of 1119-1150.
- Sri Jaya Pangus in Dharma Anyar asceticism in the year of 1150-1181.
- Sri Hekajaya in Bedahulu in the year of 1181-1200.
- Sri Dhanadhiraja in Bedahulu in the year of 1200-1204.
- Sri Masula Masuli in Bedahulu in the year of 1284-1328.
- Sri Yapolung in the year of 1328-1343, and finally the kingdom of Bali was attacked by the
kingdom of Majapahit. At this time, Gajah Mada proclaimed Palapa oath.
- Dalem Ketut Kresna kepakisan in the year of 1352-1380. At this time, Bali was defeated by
Gajah Mada and finally he chose Dalem ketut Kresna Kepakisan as a king.
- Dalem Ketut Smara Kepakisan in Gelgel, Klungkung in the year of 1380-1560.
- Ratu Sakalindhu Kirana in Gunung Kawi Tampak Siring in the year of 1077-1101.
- Sri Waturenggong in the year of 1458-1550. At this time, then Danghyang Nirartha from
Majapahit came to Bali to spread his Yoga theory until he reached Lombok and Sumbawa
Island. He owned an ashram in Mas village, Ubud Bali. He then built several temples around
Bali, such as : Purancak and Rambut Siwi temple in Negara, Pulaki and Ponjok Batu temple
in Buleleng, Tanah lot temple in Tabanan, Peti tenget temple in Kuta, Uluwatu temple in
Badung, Air jeruk temple in Mas Ubud, and also Batu Klotok temple in Klungkung. After that,
Hyang Dwijendra and Asthapaka from Blambangan, east Java also came to spread the theory
of Buddha Mahayana Yoga. They lived in Serangan Island with the temple named Sakenan
temple. Then, they moved to Karang asem Budha Keling. Until now, the Balinese people are
still discipline and obedient in practicing the theory given by their ancestors.
Those people didn't understand what I felt. Every day, I always isolated myself in this temple by praying and doing meditation only because I felt comfortable. At that time, I had no idea about what is called Yoga and Spiritual. I couldn't even explain them. All I knew was just I was attracted by the power of that temple. I really had no shame to be blamed as a crazy boy by the people around me. Finally, a white-bearded old man came and guided me mysteriously. It happens every day until now. Then, that old man gave me money which contained the core of spiritual theory. It was just like a holy book that he gave to guide me. I still keep this money in my meditation room. From the theory contained in the money I got guidance about Hindu Yoga, Buddha Yoga and Tao Yoga. From those kinds of Yoga, The Balinese Yoga that I teach now comes into being. Besides that, the theory of Dasa Vayu which can be used to heal and harmonize the world is also taught. Now, while practicing charity I learn a lot about Holistic Healing, Ayur vedic Healing, Balinese Healing (Usadha Bali), including the other kinds of Holistic Healing. All the things I learn improve my spiritual knowledge. I also found Windhu Siwa Yoga Foundation with several friends who have the same way of thinking with me. This foundation is used as a place to learn spiritual based on the noble universal spiritual and culture which is undefeatable. In my daily life, I am inseparable from my activities as a healer, spiritual advisor, and Yoga Instructor. There are so many kind-hearted people from this country and even the other countries come to be healed, to practice Yoga, and consulting about spiritual. I had been invited to various countries to train Yoga and conduct seminar concerning to Yoga. Hopefully, this lesson is useful for all of us and also the world.
The Yoga programs which are taught in Balinese yoga aim to reach the peacefulness and harmony in life, not only inside our body, but also in world society and in heaven. Reaching what is called Moksartham Jagadhita Ya ca Ithi Dharma (reaching mental and physical happiness). It is based on the attitude of Tat Twam Asi (realizing that all of the creatures are the creation of god) and practicing Tri Kaya Parisudha (think positively, talk positively, and act positively), balancing and harmonizing the law of Rwa Binedha (the Balinese concept of dualism). The Yoga programs taught are Balinese Hatha Yoga, Balinese Tantra Yoga, Balinese Karma Yoga, Balinese Bhakti Yoga, Balinese Mantra Yoga, Balinese Yantra Yoga, and Balinese Jnana Yoga based on the culture of Indonesian archipelago and the discipline of Asthangga Yoga. In the teaching practice, it will be emphazised on the discipline of Tapa, Brata, Yoga and Semadi with high level of self control.
