History of the Kraton Yogyakarta



Jogja city government began to discharge Chronicle palihan villages is about power sharing mataram area into two regions, namely the region of Yogyakarta and Surakarta sultanate. The emergence chronicle because the government led by the king of Mataram Mataram and the new Third Sunan Pakubowono continued political policy in favor of the Dutch East Indies government. Tensions continued with the prolonged war between the Kingdom fully backed by the VOC against Mangkubumi princes allied with Raden Mas Sahid.Apparently before it happens, has a lot of conflict between the royal family itself mataram. Starting from the reigning king has prepared a replacement candidate, but after the king died, the change does not occur smoothly. Many factors that cause change does not occur smoothly, namely, the concept of Javanese culture or revelation by revelation Cakraningrat palace is still deeply rooted in the minds of the candidates to replace the deceased king. In traditional Javanese society is determined by the legitimate ruler who has received revelation yag.Conflicts that occur between the royal family Mataram create loopholes for VOCs to make sneaky tactics to try to overthrow the legitimate ruler of the Sunan Mas or Amangkurat III. Sunan Mas which was finally defeated and exiled to Sri Lanka must let tahhtanya the younger brother of Prince Puger Amangkurat II father of Sunan Mas. After Prince Puger successfully staged a coup he was crowned as the Sunan Pakubuwono I. Assistance resulted in the reduction of VOC Islamic Mataram territory should be given to the local VOC Cirebon, Priangan, and the area east of Madura (Dwiyanto, 2009; 7)Since VOC comes in Java, has dozens of times they made a contract agreement with the kingdom of Mataram. The agreement initially concerned only in the field of trade, which does not touch politics. But since the reign of Sunan Pakubuwono II VOC piecemeal meddle Kraton Mataram. With the soul "can be bought" to borrow a phrase from Kustiniyati, VOC managed to put the effects in the political kingdom of Mataram.Revolt by Prince Raden Mas Said Mangkubumi and forced Pakubuwono II to the VOC for help again, because at that time no Pakubuwono II defeated the rebellion had succeeded in occupying the palace that is in Kartasura. For consideration in 1744 was moved from Kartasura to Kraton Surakarta area. But the relief of VOCs must be redeemed by the permissibility of intervention VOC Mataram future impact on the delivery of the VOC Mataram region (Purwadi, 2006; 10).Pakubowono Sunan that the illness is managed by the VOC forced to sign an agreement which is in essence a "handover State Mataram 'cause disappointment parties. One the one hand that it is disappointed the Prince Mangkubumi. With the disappointment of Prince Mangkubumi the greater rebellion waged. The rebellion consumes power and great power. Creating political stability and governance chaotic and troubled kingdom disrupt the economy, which resulted in a double debt interest in VOC.Open and guerrilla war between the two sides lasted for 6 years (1749-1755), the war resulted in many casualties on both sides. On February 13 1755 the agreement reached between the Sunan Pakubowono III with Prince Mangkubumi. The agreement was named the Chronicle palihan villages. Half ruled by Susuhan Pakubowono III with capital Surakarta, the other controlled by Susuhan Kebanaran which has since changed its title into the lane I, with its capital Ngayogyakarta (Dwiyanto, 2009; 10-14).The division of the country as administraif also affect the growing culture. Surakarta Culture Yoggyakarta culture as if competing hard, which often creates disputes. Although after the agreement Giyanti Prince Mangkubuni and Sunan Pakubuwono III has a clear territory of VOC not influence wane but has intensified as political provoke them have managed to reduce the power of Mataram.Prince Mangkubumi officially became king of Yogyakarta with a degree Ngarsa Sampeyan Dalem Dalem Ingkang Sinuwun Kanjeng lane Senopati Ing Ngalaga Khalifatullah Ngabdurrahman Sayiddin Panatagama Ingkang Jumeneng Ing Negari Ingkang Jumeneng sepisan Yogyakarta Sultanate.

The system was also adopted from the Hindu-Buddhist religious system that had evolved. Kraton Yogyakarta Culture is evolving since its establishment in the kingdom of Mataram, but also after the Chronicle Giyanti undergone many changes and developments. Due to several factors that exist in the Sultanate government and Kasunanan.Aspects are often referred to as Java or Javanese religious system. The system adopts the system of Hindu-Buddhist and Islamic aspects of the procedure and a bit on the spiritual aspect. The Javanese believe that God is the center of the universe and the center of all life because before everything happens in this world is God's first time there. God not only created the universe and its contents but also acts as a regulator, because everything is moving according to plan and with the permission and His will.Central question in this sense is a source that can provide livelihood, balance and stability, which can also give life and connecting with people the world over. The views of the Javanese is commonly referred Manunggaling Lan Gusti subjects, namely the view that assumes that human moral obligation is to achieve harmony with the strength and the unity of last last, the man handed himself as the servant of the Gustinya.The mountain peaks in Javanese culture is considered a high place and closest to the world above, as at first believed that the spirits of ancestors living in the mountains. Most of the people of Java included in the class who has tried mixing some concepts and ways of thinking of Islam, with the original view of the natural world (this world) and the nature of supernatural (occult or supernatural).Outlook on life is an abstraction from life experience. Outlook on life is a mental adjustment from life experiences can then develop an attitude towards life. Javanese worldview characteristic of reality that leads to the formation of the unity between the numinous real nature, society and nature are considered sacred supernatural. Nature is an expression of power that determines life. The Javanese believe that their lives have no line, they just run its course (Soenarko, 2007; 132).Basic Java or Javanism confidence is the belief that everything that exists in this world is essentially one, or a unity of life. Javanism view of human life is always closely adrift in the cosmos of the universe. Thus human life is a journey filled with religious experiences.Java formulate the minds of human life in two cosmos (nature) is the macrocosm and the microcosm. Understand also what we might call the philosophy of Java, which is mixed with religion in the religion of Islam. Religion Islam itself does not know the system Macrocosm and Microcosm. Macrocosm in Javanese thought the attitude and outlook on life in the universe, which contains supernatural powers (supernatural). The main goal in life is to find and create harmony or balance between the macrocosm and the microcosm of life (Purwadi, 2003; 89).In the center of the macrocosm of the universe is God. The universe has a hierarchy devoted to the natural level and the level of life more perfect world (the world over - the human world - the world below). The universe consists of four main directions plus a center that unites God and give balance.Attitudes and views of the real world (the microcosm) is reflected in the lives of humans and their environment, the structure of human society, governance of everyday human life and everything that appears to the eye. In the face of human life that is good and right in this world depends on the strength of mind and soul.For the Javanese past, the center of this world was the leader or the king and kingdom, God is the center of the macrocosm, while the king is considered the embodiment representative of God on earth, so that in him there is a balance of these two forces of nature. So the king is seen as a community center in the world as the king's representative microcosm of the Lord as the residence of the king's palace. Kraton is a royal and sacred center bersemayamnya king because rajapun considered a source of cosmic forces flowing into the sovereignty and bring peace, justice and the fertility of the region.It is the above overview of the nature of mind and attitude and outlook on life that is owned by the Javanese in the kingdom era. The mind has been deeply rooted philosophy and the foundation of all that is in the order of realization of Javanese life.Jogjakarta court figures who spread many Javanese ideology embraced by the public is Notoroto RP. He was the court poet Sultanate of Yogyakarta, Sri Sultan lived during Hamengku Buwana V. The work he is:a. fiber bayanullahb. musyawaratan the trusteesc. kridha deer Martanad. fiber purwakanthiAll of them are religious magic that we often call the servant Manunggaling understand Gusti (purwadi, 2003; 156).

Candi Bajangratu


Temple Bajangratu Kraton terletah in Hamlet, Village Temon, District Trowulan, Mojokerto, about 3.5 km from the Temple Wringinlawang and about 600 m from the Rat Temple. This temple still keeps a lot of things not known with certainty, whether the year of manufacture, the king who ordered its construction, function, and other aspects.
Bajangratu name first mentioned in Oudheidkunding Verslag (OV) in 1915. Archaeologists suspect Sri Soeyatmi Satari Bajangratu name Jayanegara nothing to do with the King of Majapahit, because the word 'bajang' means dwarf. According to the Pararaton and folklore, Jayanegara crowned bajang or when the age is still small, so the title of Queen Bajang or Bajangratu attached to it.
Regarding the function of the temple, it is estimated that the temple erected in honor Jayanegara Bajangratu. Basis of these estimates is the relief of Sri Tanjung in the foot arch depicting peruwatan story. Relief that includes a story peruwatan also found, among others, in the Temple Surawana. The temple was built Surawana alleged connection with the death Bhre Wengker (late 7th century).
In the Book of Pararaton explained that Jayanegara died in 1328 ('sira ta Kapopongan dhinar Meng, bhiseka ring ring csrenggapura Pratista Antarawulan'). It also said the king Jayanegara, the return to nature Vishnu (died) in 1328, made a sacred place in the kedaton, made the statue in the form of Vishnu in the plot and Bubat Shila, and made a statue in the form Amoghasidhi in Sukalila. According to Krom, Csrenggapura the same Pararaton Antarasasi (Antarawulan) in Negarakertagama, so it can be concluded that the 'dharma' (shrine) located in King Jayanegara Kapopongan Csrenggapura alias alias alias Antarawulan Crirangga temple, which is now called Trowulan. Arca embodiment of the king in the form of Vishnu is also present in Bubat (Trowulan). Only the location Shila Plots (Selapethak) is not yet known.
In addition to the above opinion, there are other opinions about the functioning of the temple Bajangratu. Given its Paduraksa gate or gate is roofed with stairs up and down, Bajangratu allegedly one Majapahit palace gates. This estimate is supported by its location not far from the site of the former palace of Majapahit.
Bajangratu expected founded between the 13th century and into the 14th, given: 1) forecast function as a temple peruwatan Jayanegara King who died in 1328 AD, 2) form similar to the temple gate framed in at Panataran Blitar 3) Relief trimmer frame doors similar to the Ramayana reliefs on temple Panataran; 4) Shape dragon reliefs that show the influence of the Yuan Dynasty. J.L.A. Brandes estimates that Bajangratu built at the same time as the construction of the temple in Overlapping Jago, Malang, judging from the reliefs of lions that flank either side of the head of Kala, who was also present in Jago Temple. Jago temple itself was probably built in the 13th century.

Candi Bajangratu occupy large areas. The entire temple is made of red brick, but the steps and inside the roof. With respect to the shape that is roofed gate, Candi Bajangratu facing both directions, ie east-west. The height of the temple to the top of the roof is 16.1 m and a length of 6.74 m. Gate Bajangratu have wings on the right and left. On each side there are stairs flanking ornate lion and the long-eared animals. At the foot of the temple wall, flanking the staircase, there is a relief Sri Tanjung, while on the left and right of the front wall, flanking the door, there is a relief Ramayana. Temple door decorated with relief when the head is just above the threshold. At the foot of the doorway is still visible plugging holes where the frame. Perhaps the first door is equipped with a door.

The temples formed hallway stretching from west to east. The stairs and hallway floors are made of stone. The inside of the roof of the temple is also made ​​of stone blocks are arranged longitudinally north-south, forming a narrow space at the top.
Shaped temple roof meru (mountain), similar tiered pyramid, with the top square. Each layer is decorated with carved patterns and patterns of plant inverted pyramid. At the center of the layer-3 there is a relief to the sun, is said to be a symbol of the kingdom of Majapahit. Although the temple is facing east-west, but the shape and decoration on the north and south is similar to the other two sides. In the north and south is the niche that resembles the shape door. At the top of the temple are carved eagle head and enclosed sun dragon.

The entrance to the womb Graha (the space within the body temple) is equipped with a walk along the viewer about 1.5 m. The entrance is wide enough to garnish kalamakara above the threshold.

In the temple there is an area of ​​approximately 5.53 x 3.67 meter2. In the middle of the room there is a phallus and yoni, which is a symbol for fertility. On the walls around the room are small niches containing statues that seem initially.
