I MADE SUMANTRA I was born in Payogan village, near to Pucak Payogan temple from the parents named I Wayan Darpa and Ni Nyoman Suandi. Now, I live in Lungsiakan village, Kedewatan, Ubud, Gianyar. I have been interested in mysterious and mystical things since I was in childhood. Secretly, I kept looking for a spiritual teacher to guide me. When I was a child, the people in the village blamed me as a strange boy because I always spent my time in Pucak Payogan temple. 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.

I MADE SUMANTRA
I was born in Payogan village, near to Pucak Payogan temple from the parents named I Wayan Darpa and Ni Nyoman Suandi. Now, I live in Lungsiakan village, Kedewatan, Ubud, Gianyar.

I have been interested in mysterious and mystical things since I was in childhood. Secretly, I kept looking for a spiritual teacher to guide me. When I was a child, the people in the village blamed me as a strange boy because I always spent my time in Pucak Payogan temple.

Yoga can be generally defined as unification and relationship. What kind of unification? It means the unification of one self, in this case the soul (Atman) with the mighty god so that the life of the creatures will be based on the divinity awareness. By practicing it, hopefully the peaceful in the world can be created. Yoga is a life practice which is the application of Veda containing the life guidance and also soul evolution. Veda is the vision of god to holy man called Rsi in the past, and compiled by Maharsi Wyasa which is also known as Hyang Kresnadwipayana, with the assistance of his students: Rsi Pulaha (Paila) who compiled Rg Veda, Rsi Jaimini compiled Sama Veda, Rsi Waisampayana compiled Yajur Veda, and Rsi Sumantu who compiled Atharwa Veda. The development of this theory happened in the valley of holy river 'Sindhu', located in Bhatarawarsa, India. The theory of Veda generally guides us to believe in five things:

1. Brahman, believe in the mighty God and all of the aspects.
2. Atman, believe in soul which is the spirit that makes the creatures alive.
3. Karmaphala, believe in the law of cause and consequence of everything we do.
4. Punarbhawa, believe in reincarnation.
5. Moksa, believe in eternal happiness, the unification of the soul with the mighty god.

Furthermore, the development of the theory of Veda in India was divided into four period, they were:
1. Veda period (2500 BC) Veda was started to be taught to the Arya people and then began to spread
in the valley of Gangga and Yamuna. In this period, the theory of yoga was centralized on the
sense of devotion towards God. Worship was the main characteristic of the application of this Yoga.
At that time, people really hanged themselves on God, not because of afraid, but it was caused
by their sense of whole-hearted devotion.2. Brahmana period (1000 BC) At this time the application of Yoga was centralized on whole-hearted
sacrifices or offerings. There was a belief that holy offerings would bring the supernatural power of
god to protect the human being. Then, various kinds of ceremonies based on the need and situation
began to appear. It aimed to vibrate the balance of this world.3. Upanisad period (800 BC) Upanisad itself means sit near to teacher. At this period the theory of
Yoga began to be taught by the holy men (teachers). The people started to bring themselves closer
to the teacher to practice Yoga and Spiritual. They started to learn about God and all of his
creations through thinking capacity and synthesis analysis. People wanted to know what god is and
why should we be in this world. What is that for? The people tried to understand about the essence
of life in the world.

4. Tantrayana period (600 BC) At this period, the theory of Yoga was centralized on supernatural
power. People yearned for the power owned by the god and wanted it to be theirs. They want to be
as powerful as the god. That was why, the practice of Yoga and all its branches then appeared.
At this time, Siwa and and supernatural power became the object of the Yoga practice.
The spreading of Yoga from India to Indonesia was handled by Maha Rsi Agastya who came from
Kasi, Benares, India. The spreading of Yoga in Indonesia couldn't be separated from the history of
the kingdoms in Indonesia, such as:


  • The kingdom of Kutai, with the king named Mulawarman, the son of Aswawarman, the


grandson of Kudungga in the year of 400.


  • The kingdom of Tarumanegara in west Java including the area of Bogor, Jakarta, and


Banten/ Lebak Munjul, with the king named Purnawarman in the year of 400-500.


  • The kingdom of Kalingga in the middle part of Java with the queen named Ratu Sima in the year of 650.
  • The kingdom of Sriwijaya in Sumatra, with the king named Hyang Sri Jayanasa in the year


of 684.


  • The kingdom of Mataram in the middle part of Java with the king named Sanjaya in the year


of 732.


  • The kingdom of Kanjuruhan in Dinoyo village, Malang, East Java with the king named


Dewasimha in the year of 760.


  • The kingdom of Isanawangsa in East Java with the king named King Sindok in the year of
