THE FIRE EAGLE

430. The Garuda 31. Meditation in Leang Tedongnge Cave.

Shun Land drifted in his meditation one day getting nothing two days, up to three days to one Sunday. The day passed quickly.

On the 41st night of the Shun Land consciousness as if something was pulling strongly, he said, at that time the consciousness of Shun Land was forced by something so great that Shun Land could not do anything at the climax of Shun Land reached a dense forest, Shun Land stood looking around which only large towering trees could be seen.

"Where am I now". Shun Land muttered to himself, Shun Land finally traced the forest, somewhere the sensitive ears of Shun Land heard some people running towards him.

Some people carrying spears made of wood made pointy ends ran up to him, their clothes were made of animal skin their bodies were a little bigger and tall,

They passed in front of Shun Land they only glanced at Shun Land's face and then continued to pass without caring about Shun Land.

Shun Land curiously came running behind them, the men arrived at the mouth of a cave and went in there, Shun Land examined the mouth of the cave how surprised Shun Land was after realizing that the mouth of the cave was the mouth of Leang Tedongnge cave where he meditated.

While in confusion felt the shoulder of Shun Land someone patted as soon as Shun Land turned his head directly to kneel to the person.

"I'm sorry for my students' respect and devotion to the teacher". From Shun Land's mouth. The figure is the Batiniah Guru Shun Land Sanghyang Triloka. From her lips fell a gentle smile full of compassion.

"Stand we will see what happens in the cave but we must not say and act anything just to see it, because our slightest action will change the order of events in the future". Sanghyang Triloka said.

Shun Land followed the steps of Sanghyang Triloka who entered the cave, as soon as they reached the cave they were gathered in the middle there was a fire on top of which a Pig was roasted. One of them stood on the side of the cave wall his hand full of dye painted on the cave wall.

They just stared at Shun Land and Sanghyang Triloka for a while after that they did not care about it as if they did not see Shun Land and Sanghyang Triloka.

Sanghyang Triloka then hinted at Shun Land to get out of the cave, without refusing to let Shun Land follow him, although in Shun Land's mind many were questioned on the human group.

Shun Land was carried by Sanghyang Triloka in a cool open place, in a rock that is quite large and the surface of the stone is flat, flat, enough for the two of them to sit comfortably while looking at the trees around.

"Teacher what I actually took from the inheritance in the map made from Sanghyang Tunggal for me, the disciple was very clueless". Shun Land after sitting in front of the master of Batinaiah directly asked the subject.

In the thought of Shun Land there was a fear of him not having time to question this important matter because he could not meet the master of his Sanghyang Triloka Batinaiah with all his heart.

Sanghyang Triloka smiled as if understanding the worries in Shun Land's heart, then casually and affectionately replied.

"Single Sanghyang was my teacher and my father, and once I was led up to the back of the Fire Lord Legend and arrived at this place, Sanghyang Tunggal then made the map and gave it to me and ordered that the map be bequeathed to my descendants to be given to one of his descendants who was elected as the leader of this country,.....

"According to Sanghyang Tunggal the painting was made several thousand years from his time they are our Patriarchs scattered in every region of Sundaland, Sanghyang Tunggal also advised me that this painting is to be maintained because this painting is a legacy from our ancestors as well as evidence in the future that our Nation has existed, because this painting is a legacy from our ancestors as well as a future proof that our Nation has existed, it also confirms that our Nation is the native of Sundaland's vast landmass,.....

"We are not from anywhere but we are indigenous people inhabiting the land of Sundaland from the beginning of civilization, the, Sanghyang Tunggal said that the paintings of our ancestors are guarded by invisible forces so that cave caves like this will survive various disasters for tens of thousands of years". Sanghyang Triloka stopped talking his eyes looked at the sky where he remembered when he was still with the Father and the Single Sanghyang teacher.

Shun Land did not dare to say a word just silently waiting for the next information from his Batinaiah Sanghyang Triloka teacher. After a while Sanghyang Triloka continued speaking.

"My disciple meant by the legacy is a painting on the wall of the cave, that's an ancestral legacy that is incomparable with property, because with the heritage of paintings from ancestors, it is the legacy of ancestors, we can show the world that our Sundaland nation existed since the beginning of civilization in the world,....

"With the evidence of this painting we can also say aloud to the world that we are a great nation that existed since human civilization existed, he said, with the legacy of this painting from our ancestors we can also refute those who say that we are immigrants from our own Sundaland country, that is the meaning of the map heritage of my grandson Sanghyang Tunggal". Sanghyang Tunggal his Batinah teacher Shun Land ended his speech.

"Teacher kept what is in the second painting here listed there on the mainland of Nusa Kencana". Shun Land after understanding what the meaning of the inheritance map of the Single Sanghyang continued asking.

"The map is the same showing the paintings of our ancestors in the vast land of Nusa Kencana, this is also evidence that the vast Sunda mainland and the small Sunda have very close ties with the ancestors of the vast Sunda mainland,....

"The map is in Sangkulirang-Mangkalihat vast land of Nusa Kencana in the east, my grandson of my time, I think there's enough of a core description of the inheritance map of the Single Sanghyang and I've come to restore you to your meditation". With the sound of Shun Land's last sentence like being sucked into a hallway very quickly.

Shun Land's consciousness returned to his body slowly Shun Land opened his eyes, Shun Land moved his body slowly which felt stiff, stiff, by multiplying his profound energy throughout his body Shun Land felt his body recover the immortal flashes of fire that were keeping Shun Land's body had been lost as Shun Land's consciousness recovered completely.

(NB; a Few Notes. Lubang Jeriji Saleh is a limestone cave located in the Karst Sangkulirang-Mangkalihat region, East Kalimantan province, Indonesia which has the oldest believed figurative art in the world.

The oldest figurative painting: a depiction of a bull found in the Jeriji Saleh Hole with a date of more than 40,000 (perhaps as old as 52,000) years.

The hole of Jeriji Saleh contains many cave paintings. The oldest of these paintings, created over 40,000 (perhaps as old as 52,000) years ago,[2][3][4] and believed to be a bull.[[5] The bull is about 5 feet (1.5 meters) wide,[6] and is depicted from a reddish-orange ochre on the limestone cave walls.[[7]

There are three "phases" identified in the cave paintings. The first contains a picture of a bull and an ochre hand stencil. The second contains more stencils with "mulberry colors" along with depictions of humans. The third stage depicts humans, boats and geometric designs).
