Rasa

Oleh : Rifti

Sebelum saya menjelaskan masalah rasa lebih lanjut, sebaiknya kita mendasari
pembicaraan ini dengan QS.surat Al hijr : 29;

Maka apabila Aku telah menyempurnakan kejadiannya , dan telah meniupkan kedalamnya RUH-KU, maka tunduklah kamu kepadanya dengan bersujud.

Berbicara mengenai rasa, sulit bagi sebagian orang memahaminya dengan baik, karena
terkadang bahasa tidak mampu mengungkapkannya makna rasa yang sebenarnya. Namun kita bisa memahami jika mengerti asal kejadian manusia. Yang pada awalnya menusia tidak memiliki rasa "ADA". Setelah dihembuskan ruh-Ku, manusia itu merasakan "ADA" Ruh-Ku ini menjadi sumber konflik antara kita. Sehingga banyak yang tidak berani membahas apa itu "RASA JATI", Dalam surat Al isra’:85 " katakan bahwa ruh itu amar Tuhanku " ada yang menterjemahkan bahwa ruh itu adalah rahasia Tuhanku.

Didalam Alqur’an surat Al Qiyamah:14, Akan tetapi di dalam diri manusia ada Bashirah ( rasa tahu )

Baiklah saya akan mencoba merunut asal rasa itu dari fisik yang kita rasakan sekarang.

Apabila panca indra seseorang mengamati dan menangkap perangsang dari luar, maka perangsang ini oleh pancaindra diubah menjadi tenaga listrik yang disebut kesan. Kesan ini dikirim melalui syaraf tepi kepada syaraf pusat. Syaraf pusat lalu memberi perintah-perintah melalui syaraf tepi kepada urat daging untuk melaksanakan perintah. Bila syaraf pusat tidak memberikan perintah ,maka urat daging tak mungkin bergerak. Dengan demikian tidak terjadi suatu perbuatan.


Sampai mana arus itu mengalir, sampai itu pula kesadaran kita mencapai tingkatannya. Oleh sebab itu kesadaran manusia bertingkat-tingkat.

1. Jika arus ini mengalir sampai hanya pada pangkal otak, kesadaran nya dinamai kesadaran pendahuluan. Ini terdapat pada bayi atau hewan yang berderajad rendah,

2. Jika arus ini dapat mengalir sampai kepusat kesadaran dan pusat ingatan, maka dinamakan kesadaran sederhana. Contoh: anak-anak pada masa usia 1-6 tahun, bangsa-bangsa primitif, dan binatang-binatang yang berderajat lebih tinggi

3. Kalau arus bio-electric dapat bergerak samapai ke pusat akal dan pusat kemauan, berarti bahwa seseorang telah menemukan "AKU" nya. Mengenai ini dapat dilihat pada anak-anak yang mencapai akhir masa hayatinya (pubertas) . dalam keadaan serupa ini kesadarannya disebut kesadaran diri-sendiri

4. Apabila manusia di dalam sadarnya dapat berhubungan dengan rohaninya, maka kesadarannya meningkat menjadi kesadaran luhur (kesadaran jiwa). Kalau hubungannya sudah konstan , tetap, tingkah lakunya pun menunjukkan ketulusan hati yang dalam. Terhadap kesadaran ini dapat kita saksikan pada orang-orang yang menjalankan zuhud (melepas segala ikatan materi), dan sudah sampai ke derajat yang mukhlasin.

5. Lebih jauh lagi, bilamana kesadarannya sudah dapat menghubungkan diri kepada dzat mutlak (meta kosmos), maka disebut kesadaran Ruh (AKU SEJATI) atau rasa jati. , yaitu rasa yang hakiki yang mengetahui semua rasa (alam), Aku inilah yang mengetahui segala rasa, sedih, rasa takut, rasa marah, rasa benci, rasa capek, rasa lapar, rasa ngantuk dan seluruh alam rasa. Sebab semuanya tidak ada manfaatnya jika sang Aku tidak ada.

Sebelum anda menyadari rasa jatinya , anda mengira sakit itu yang merasakan adalah tubuh ini, kemudian kita merunut keatas, dari sentuhan fisik yang dihantar oleh bioelectric yang menghasilkan kesan ditangkap oleh pangkal otak ..dari pangkal otak kita menyadari siapa yang merasakan setelah sampai pada pusat otak !! Ialah AKU sejati yang melihat (merasakan ) itu, ialah pusat pengetahuan tentang rasa, dia berada meliputi fisik bukan didalam fisik. Sehingga jika sang Aku telah meninggalkan fisik maka rasa itu tidak ada dalam fisik ini (mati) , anda perhatikan saat orang tidur ..walaupun otak dia tetap bekerja,namun Aku tidak merasakan lagi sebagai fisik ini..akan tetapi pindah dari kesadaran fisik menuju kesadaran jiwa, begitu seterunya .

Mungkin dibawah ini membantu menambah pengertian atas rasa tadi :

Sebelum anda bisa mengendarai (menyetir) mobil, menurut perasaan anda mobil itu besar sekali dan jalanan sepertinya sangat sempit, sehingga tampak terpisah antara mobil dan pikiran..anda menjadi gugup saat berpapasan dengan pengendara sepeda motor

Lama- kelamaan rasa anda meluas meliputi body mobil, seakan tubuh anda menjadi mobil itu sendiri, sehingga jika berjalan kencangpun terasa mengikuti irama perasaan anda. Reflek otak anda menggerakkan rem, kopling, wiper, bunyi knalpot, dan getaran mobil, sehingga jika ada sesuatu yang ganjil terhadap bunyi mesin itu terasa menyentuh langsung kepada perasaan anda (otak). Jika mobil itu terantuk batu yang besar .ADUH !! anda merasakan kesakitan. Mengapa anda yang menjerit kesakitan ..padahal anda dengan mobil itu berbeda..anda bukanlah sebuah mobil itu. Siapa yang merasakan enak tidaknya membawa mobil .mobil itu tidak bisa merasakan apa-apa. tapi saya bisa merasakan mobil itu enak atau tidak ..itulah gambaran rasa jati ..asalnya segala rasa, yang meliputi segala sesuatu.

Serat Dewa Ruci

This version of the "Dewa Ruci" is taken from the Sêrat Cabolek (The Book of Cabolek), and is popularly thought to have been written by Raden Ngabehi Yasadipura I, the pioneer of modern Javanese verse, who died in 1729.



This is only one of the many versions of the story, which is also a very popular shadow theater story, often performed under the name Bima Suci (The Holy Wêrkudara, by which is intended the Dewa Ruci), in that after his enlightenment Wêrkudara changes his name to Bima.



This is a truncated version, leaving out Wêrkudara's trials under a wicked guru who intends him harm and confining itself to the encounter between the rude knight Wrêkudara and his inner self, or spirit, the Dewa Ruci. Dewa means something akin to "Hindu god," while ruci, according to the dictionary, means "quick to anger." This appears not to fit, except that Bima does mean "frightening," so the word is sometimes explained as "little" or as a synonym of rucira, which means "shining" or "beautiful to look at."

This translation is based on the Sufi concept underlying the text of tripartite man made up of body (raga), soul (pramana), and spirit (suksma) equivalents of the Javanese jasmani or wadhag, napsu, and roh. The Dewa Ruci is seen as the embodiment of the spirit, which guides the body and soul of the seeker, symbolized by Wêrkudara, to an understanding of the Perfection of Life and Mystic Union with the Divine.


CANTO VIII.
In the Dhandhanggula Meter


1. (14)

Wuwusira Dewa Suksma Ruci,
The Dewa Ruci -- the human spirit -- said:
payo Wêrkudhara dipun-enggal,
"Come, Wêrkudhara, hurry,
manjinga garbengong kene,
enter into my abdomen here."
Wrêkudhara gumuyu,
Wêrkudhara laughed
pan angguguk turira aris,
a restrained laugh and said softly:
dene paduka bajang,
"As for you, my lord, you’re a midget,
kawula gêng luhur,
[while] I am great and tall,
inggih pangawak parbata,
a veritable man-mountain.
saking pundi margine kawula manjing,
From what direction is there a way for me to enter?
jênthik mangsa sêdhênga.
Not even my little finger could possibly manage it."
NOTE: Wêrkudhara or Wrêkudhara is the youthful name of Bima, the hero of this tale, before the experience of *unio mystica* described in this passage.


2. (15)

Angandika malih Dewa Ruci,
Again the Dewa Ruci spoke:
gêdhe êndi sira lawan jagad,
"Which is larger, you or the world?"
kabeh iki saisine,
All its contents here,
kalawan gunungipun,
with its mountains,
samodrane alase sami,
seas, and forests
tan sêsak lumêbuwa,
would not be overcrowded if they entered
guwa garbaningsun,
my abdomen."
Wrêkodhara duk miyarsa,
Wêrkudhara, when he heard [this],
êsmu ajrih kumêl sandika turneki,
seemed frightened and calmly expressed his humble agreement.
mengleng sang Ruci Dewa.
The Dewa Ruci bent sideways.
3. (16)

Iki dalan talingan ngong kering,
"Here is the way -- [through] my left ear."
Wrêkodhara manjing sigra-sigra,
Wêrkudhara hastened inside.
wus prapteng sajro garbane,
Once within the [god’s] abdomen
andulu samodra gung,
he saw a great sea,
tanpa têpi nglangut lumaris,
shoreless. He went away, almost out of sight,
lêyêp adoh katingal,
until he was like something seen far off in a half-sleeping state.
Dewa Ruci nguwuh,
The Dewa Ruci called out:
heh apa katon ing sira,
"Hey, what do you see?"
dyan sumahur sang Sena aturna têbih,
Then Sena replied from a distance,
tan wontên katingalan.
"There’s nothing to be seen.

4. (17)

Awang-awang kang kula-lampahi,
"The spaces I’m passing through
uwung-uwung têbih tan kantênan,
are empty and unimaginably vast.
ulun saparan-parane,
No matter where I go,
tan mulat ing lor kidul,
I can’t tell north from south;
wetan kilen datan udani,
I can’t tell east from west.
ngandhap nginggil ing ngarsa,
Nadir from zenith, front
kalawan ing pungkur,
from back,
kawula botên uninga,
I can’t distinguish.
langkung bingung ngandika sang Dewa Ruci,
I’m totally confused." Said the Dewa Ruci,
aja maras tyasira.
"Don’t let yourself feel uneasy."

5. (18)

Byar katingal ngadhêp Dewa Ruci,
Suddenly seeing he was face to face with the Dewa Ruci,
Wêrkodhara sang wiku kawangwang,
Wêrkudhara looked closely at the holy ascetic
umancur katon cahyane,
radiating visible light,
nuli wruh ing lor kidul,
and then knew north from south.
wetan kilen sampun kaeksi,
East from west he could distinguish,
nginggil miwah ing ngandhap,
zenith from nadir.
pan sampun kadulu,
All were now apparent.
lawan andulu baskara,
And, seeing the sun,
eca tyase miwah sang wiku kaeksi,
he was in delight, with the holy priest visible
aneng jagad walikan.
inside the parallel universe.

6. (19)

Dewa Ruci Suksma angling malih,
The Dewa Ruci -- the human spirit -- spoke once more:
aywa lumaku anduduluwa,
Don’t move around. Observe
apa katon ing dheweke,
what is appearing to you.
Wrêkodhara umatur,
Wêrkudhara said,
wontên warni kawan prakawis,
There are four colors
katingal ing kawula,
appearing to me.
sadaya kang wau,
All the things [I saw] before
sampun datan katingalan,
are now invisible.
amung kawan prakawis ingkang kaeksi,
I see only four things:
irêng bang kuning pêthak.
black, red, yellow, [and] white.
7. (20)

Dewa Ruci Suksma ngandika ris,
The Dewa Ruci -- the human spirit -- spoke softly:
ingkang dhingin sira anon cahya,
The light you saw first --
gumawang tan wruh arane,
very clear -- whose name you did not know --
pancamaya puniku,
the five radiances --
sajatine ing tyas sayêkti,
is the reality of the true mind,
panguriping sarira,
the self’s life-giver.
têgêse tyas iku,
The meaning of mind,
ingaranan mukasipat,
is that which is called *mukasipat* (the foremost of attributes)
kang anuntun marang sipat kang linuwih,
which leads to the excellent attributes,
kang sajatining sipat.
which are the most genuine of attributes.
8. (21)

Mangka tinula aywa lumaris,
But weigh it, don’t go running off.
awasêna rupa aja samar,
Observe the colors. Don’t be afraid.
kawasaning tyas êmpane,
The power of mind, its function,
tingale tyas puniku,
is its ability to see,
anêngêri maring sajati,
to discern that which is genuine.
enak sang Wrêkodhara,
Wêrkudhara was delighted
amiyarsa wuwus,
to hear those words.
lagya mesêm tyas sumringah,
He smiled. He was relieved.
dene ingkang irêng abang kuning putih,
As for the black, red, yellow, [and] white,
iku durgamaning tyas
they are dangerous obstacles to the mind.
9. (22)

pan isining jagad amêpêki,
Why, they fill to overflowing all that is in the world --
iya ati kang têlung prakara,
those three [aspects of] mind do

pamurunging laku dene,

Lamun nora kawilêt ing katri,
“unimpeded by the three,

It is where grace is received [and]

Marbudengrat Dewa Ruci angling,
The world’s enlightener, the Dewa Ruci, said:

The Dewa Ruci replied softly,

without [outward] appearance: the invisible God.
61. (74)

Sang pêrmana denira angringgit,
The way the soul performs the shadow play
ngucapakên ing sariranira,
is by being made to speak out.
tanpa aji sêsanane,
Its [own] teaching would be without value.
wibuh pan ora tumut,
It is powerful because it does not follow
ing sarira upamaneki,
its own self. It can be compared
kang menyak munggeng puhan,
to the cream at the top of the milk,
gêni munggeng kayu,
the fire within the wood.
andrêpati tan katêdah,
Fearless of death, without being taught,
sang pêrmana lir gêsênging kayu panggrit,
the soul is like the fire ignited by a tree’s rubbing,
landhêsan sami wreksa.
rubbing against another tree.
62. (75)

Panggritane polah dening angin,
The tree is moved by the wind.
gêsênging kayu kukuse mêdal,
The wood, igniting, gives off smoke.
datan antara gênine,
There are flames everywhere,
gêni kalawan kukus,
fire and smoke
saking kayu wijile sami,
both issuing from the wood.
wruha eling duk kala,
See, if you remember back
mula-mulanipun,
to the beginning of
kabeh iki kang gumêlar,
all this [world] spread out,
pan saking heb manusa tinitah luwih,
it is by the Hidden One man was made an excellent creature
apan ingakên rahsa.
acknowledged to be the center of all meaning.
63. (76)

Mulya dhewe saking kang dumadi,
Most noble of all creatures,
aja mengeng ciptanira tunggal,
Never lose vigilance; keep your thoughts unfragmented,
tunggal saparibawane,
and your power unfragmented
isining buwaneku,
over everything in the world
anggêp siji manungsa jati,
The oneness of the true human being’s outlook
mêngku sagung kaanan,
envelopes all that befalls
ing manusa iku,
humanity.
den-wruh wisesaning tunggal,
To become aware of the one high power
anuksmani saliring jagad dumadi,
penetrating the whole universe of creation
tekad kang wus sampurna.
is the most perfect of all aims.
64. (77)

Wus mangkana Wêrkudhara mulih,
With that, Wêrkudhara returned.
datan mengeng ing batin gumawang,
He did not relax his vigilance. His inner self was illumined.
nora pangling sarirane,
He did not forget his identity
panuksmaning sawujud,
as the embodiment of all being,
nanging lair sasab piningit,
but outwardly he concealed it.
reh-sareh kasatriyan,
The rules of his knightly caste
linakon winêngku,
he obeyed, and he held in mastery
pamurwaning jagad raya,
that which could initiate all the world.
kalairan batine nora kasilib,
His inner and outer selves were not at odds.
satu menggeng rimbagan.
They were like a newly-stamped brick [still tight] in its mold.
65. (78)

Wêrkudhara lampahira,
Wêrkudhara’s journey
jroning kitha Ngamartadipura,
[took him] into the city of Amarta.
wus panggih kadange kabeh,
[where] he met all his family.
langkung sukaning kalbu,
Joyful of heart
Darmaputra lan para ari,
were Darmaputra and the younger brothers.
ngluwari punaginya,
They fulfilled their vow
bujana anayub,
by holding a banquet with tayub dancing.
tanbuh sukane tyasira,
Their happiness was indescribable
dene ingkang rayi praptane basuki,
that their younger brother had succeeded [in his quest].
sirna subrangtanira.
[and] his deep longing was satisfied.

WIRAYAT JATI

Translation by M. M. Medeiros and Mastoni


Anenggih punika pituduh ingkang sanyata, anggelaraken dunung lan pangkating kawruh kasampurnan, winiwih saking pamejangipun para wicaksana ing Nungsa Jawi, karsa ambuka pitedhah kasajatining kawruh kasampurnan, tutuladhan saking Kitab Tasawuf.

Panggelaring wejangan wau thukul saking kaweningan raosing panggalih, inggih cipta sasmitaning Pangeran, rinilan ambuka wedha ing pangandikaning Pangeran dhumateng Nabi Musa, Kalamolah, ingkang suraosipun makaten:

"Ing sabener-benere manungsa iku kanyatahaning Pangeran, lan Pangeran iku mung sawiji."

Pangandikaning Pangeran ingkang makaten wau, inggih punika ingkang kawedharaken dening para gurunadi dhumateng para ingkang sami katarimah puruitanipun.

Dene wonten kawruh wau, lajeng kadhapuk 8 pangkatan, sarta pamejanganipun sarana
kawisikaken ing talingan kiwa.

Mangêrtosipun asung pepenget bilih wedharing kawruh kasampurnan, punika boten kenging kawêjangaken dhateng sok tiyanga, dene kengingipun kawejangaken namung dhumateng tiyang ingkang sampun pinaringan ilhaming Pangeran, tegesipun tiyang ingkang sampun tinarbuka papadhanging budi pangangen-angenipun (ciptanipun).

Awit saking punika, pramila ingkang sami kasdu maos serat punika sayoginipun sinembuha nunuwun ing Pangeran, murih tinarbuka ciptaning saged anampeni saha angecupi suraosing wejangan punika, awit suraosipun pancen kapara nyata yen saklangkung gawat.

Mila kasêmbadanipun saged angecupi punapa suraosing wejangan punika, inggih muhung dumunung ing ndalêm raosing cipta kemawon.

Mila inggih boten kenging kangge wiraosan kaliyan tiyang ingkang dereng nunggil raos, inggih ingkang dereng kepareng angsal ilhaming Pangeran.

Hewadene sanadyana kangge wiraosing kaliyan tiyang ingkang dereng nunggil raos, wedaling pangandika ugi mawia dudugi lan pramayogi, mangertosipun kedah angen mangsa lan empan papan saha sinamun ing lulungidaning basa.

Menggah wontening wewejangan 8 pangkat wau, kados ing ngandhap punika:

Wewejangan ingkang rumiyin, dipun wastani: pitedahan wahananing Pangeran, sasadan pangandikanipun Pangeran dhateng Nabi Muhammad s.a.w. Makaten pangandikanipun:

Sajatine ora ana apa-apa, awit duk maksih awang-uwung durung ana sawiji-wiji, kang ana dhihin iku ingsun, ora ana Pangeran anging ingsun sajatine kang urip luwih suci, anartani warna aran lan pakartiningsun (dat, sipat, asma, afngal).

Menggah dunungipun makaten: kang binasakake angandika ora ana Pangeran anging Ingsun.

Sajatine urip kang luwih suci, sajatosipun inggih gesang kita punika rinasuk dening Pangeran kita, mênggahing warna nama lan pakarti kita.

Punika sadaya saking purbawisesaning Pangeran kita, inggih kang sinuksma, tetep tinetepan, inggih kang misesa, inggih kang manuksma, umpami surya lan sunaripun, mabên lan manisipun, sayekti boten saged den pisaha.

Wewejangan ingkang kaping kalih, dipun wastani: Pambuka kahananing Pangeran.

Pamejangipun amarahakên papangkatan adeging gesang kita dumunung ing dalem pitung kahanan, sasadan pangandikanipun Pangeran dhateng Nabi Muhammad s.a.w. Makaten pangandikanipun: Satuhune ingsun Pangeran sajati, lan kawasan anitahaken sawiji-wiji, dadi padha sanalika saka karsa lan pêpêstheningsun, ing kono kanyatahane gumelaring karsa lan pakartiningsun, kang dadi pratandha.

Kang dhihin,
Ingsun gumana ing dalem awang-uwung kang tanpa wiwitan tanpa wekasan, iya iku alam Ingsun kang maksih piningit.

Kapindho,
Ingsun anganakake cahya minangka panuksmaningsun dumunung ana ing alam pasenedaningsun.

Kaping telu,
Ingsun anganakake wawayangan minangka panuksma lan dadi rahsaningsun, dumunung ana ing alam pambabaraning wiji.

Kaping pat,
Ingsun anganakake suksma minangka dadi pratandha kauripaningsun, dumunung ana ing alaming getih.

Kaping lima,
Ingsun anganakake angen-angen kang uga dadi warnaningsun, ana ing dalêm alam kang lagi kena kaumpamaake bae.

Kaping enem,
Ingsun anganakake budi, kang minangka kanyatahan pencaring angen-angen kang dumunung ana ing dalem alaming badan alus.

Kaping pitu,
Ingsun anggelar warana kang minangka kakandhangan sakabehing paserenaningsun. Kasebut nem prakara ing dhuwur mau tumitah ana ing donya iya iku sajatining manungsa.





Yes, you may trust these premonitions, which describe the essence and extent of knowledge of the prefection of spiritual enlightenment, and this enlightenment eminates from the wise ones of the Isle of Java. It is their desire to reveal the truth of enlightenment as set forth by the Sufistic books.

The revelation of these teachings come from a quite and peaceful mind as you become one with God. Divined through the teachings of the Prophet Moses, God says to his people:

"In truth, mankind is the reality of the Lord, and the Lord is one with mankind."

The word of the Lord is the essence of the message imparted by spiritual teachers to their followers.

These teachings are then divided into 8 levels. The message of each is whispered into the left ears of the faithful.

This practice is observed as a reminder that the teachings of spiritual knowledge should not be revealed carelessly. They should be heard only by those who are open and have been blessed with enlightenment from God.

For this reason, those who are interested in learning about these teachings should pray to God for an open mind so that they may go beyond the texts into an understanding of their deeper meaning. To do otherwise can be truly dangerous.

In order to achieve the complete understanding of these teachings, one must surrender oneself completely to one's own consciousnes.

It is not permissible to discuss these teachings with those who have not had a revelation of spiritual unity and received divine inspiration.

If it is necessary to share these teachings with those who are not yet prepared, then one must exercise great cautions and wisdom by choosing the proper place and time and by carefully explaining the deep symbolism and parables.

As for the eight levels of these teachings, they are as follows:

The first lesson is called:
The knowledge of the the Lord.
One must learn that this great knowledge is delivered through the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad:

"Peace be unto him, In truth nothing existed in the universe, except God. There is no other God. And God exists in utter holiness and perfection throughout all realms of essence, attributes, names, and works."

The importance of what we have just revealed can be understood by the Lord's words "There is no Lord but I."

Life is indeed holy and in truth, our lives are completely imbued with the presence of the Lord in all matter, names, and deeds.

In reality, all life originates from the creation at the hand of God. These creations are inextricably connected in a continuous cycle. For instance, the sun is inseparable from the sunshine, and honey cannot be parted from its sweetness.

The second lesson is a preface which speaks of the existence of God.

It describes our life is divided into seven levels. The Lord told the Prophet Muhammad, "Peace be unto him."He said, "I am the very God, and at My command I have created everything, and it all came into being at once as I ordained and decreed. This creation unfolded at My command and it is a sign."

First,
I was isolated in the heavens, in My untouchable world, without beginning or ending.

Second,
I created light as a spiritual means so that I could manifest Myself and to leave My untouchable realm.

Third,
I created shadows as a means of manifesting Myself in the hidden places of the universe so that I could be present in the genosis of all things.

Fourth,
I gave a living soul to the blood that causes through the world as a sign that I am alive in all things.

Fifth,
I created thoughts as a vehicle for Myself so that I may live in the realm of imagination.

Sixth,
I created the capacity of the mind to discern right from wrong. The mind is the seat of the soul and separate from My presence in the physical body.

Seventh,
I unfolded a screen as a home within which I could rest. All of the six lessons I have stated above were created as a true reflection of the nature of humanity.
