BATARA GURU'S PLAN TO ATTACK THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL

Batara Guru in Tengguru Heaven with his sons, namely Batara Sambu, Batara Brahma, Batara Indra, Batara Bayu, and Batara Wisnu were discussing plans to attack the Bani Israel Kingdom and spread the religion of God there. Apparently Batara Guru is still curious because until now he has not been able to conquer the land of the prophets.

Batara Vishnu begged his father to undo the intention, because it is not good to impose religion on others. After all, the Kingdom of Israel is now a colony of the Roman Empire, and no longer an independent country.

Batara Guru was angry and accused Batara Vishnu of conspiring with the Children of Israel. Batara Guru remained on the stand to impose the religion of God to the inhabitants of Bani Israel, in retaliation for the actions of Prophet Solomon who had destroyed the island of Gods long ago.

Regarding the Kingdom of Rum that is currently in power, it can be arranged later. If necessary, after conquering the Kingdom of Israel, the army of the gods will move to conquer the Kingdom of Rum.

Batara Wisnu did not dare to argue anymore. Batara Guru then ordered Batara Sambu to gather and lead the army of the gods and start the attack.


THE ARMY OF THE GODS ATTACKS THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL

 Batara Sambu and his younger brothers, namely Batara Brahma, Batara Indra, Batara Bayu, and Batara Vishnu, as well as several cousins, namely Batara Wrehaspati, Batara Kuwera, Batara Yamadipati, Batara Surya, Batara Candra, Batara Temburu, and Batara Kamajaya arranged an attack plan against the Bani Israel Kingdom according to Batara Guru's orders.

Actually, Batara Sambu also disagreed with this plan. However, he did not have the courage like Batara Vishnu in defying his father's orders. He can only hope that this time the war can go well without causing many casualties. When they had had enough, they prepared an army of Gods and set out to the West.

Arriving in the territory of the Kingdom of the Children of Israel, the army of the gods began to carry out destruction. The inhabitants were forced to abandon the religion of the Prophet and convert to the religion of the Gods. Only Batara Vishnu seemed silent with a very concerned feeling.

The army of the Kingdom of Israel with the help of the army of the Kingdom of Rum held a fight, but they were all unable to face the power of the gods. The army of the Gods continued to advance over the territory of the Children of Israel.


JESUS CREATED THE VENOMOUS DOVE

 At that time there lived a descendant of Hadrat Anwas named Prophet Isa. He came to the disciples who asked Jesus to intervene to save the Kingdom of Israel from destruction. Jesus then took the clay and shaped it into a dove doll.

After blowing it, miraculously suddenly the clay doll came to life as a real pigeon that can fly in the sky, of course by the permission of Almighty God.

The magical dove rushed into the sky and attacked the gods. Its beak is capable of spitting out hot venom that injures the skin of the gods. In addition, the bird was also able to fly fast and was so agile that the gods were unable to catch it. Seeing that the situation had turned around, Batara Sambu ordered the dewata (god) troops to retreat back to mount Tengguru.


BATARA GURU FLED TO THE EAST

Batara Sambu and the army of the gods have returned and are facing Batara Guru to convey what has happened. Unexpectedly, the magical pigeon kept chasing and damaging the building of heaven. The gods and apsaras Helter-Skelter running exposed bursts of hot venom from its beak.

Batara Guru himself also had difficulty catching the Dove created by Jesus. In this desperate situation Batara Guru realized his mistake that had violated Sanghyang Padawenang's message not to disturb the people of Bani Israel.

Batara Guru felt very sad and immediately ordered all the gods and apsaras to evacuate from the Tengguru Heaven. The gods then entered the Marcukunda Hall, while the apsaras entered the Marakata Hall. The mighty Batara Bayu then lifted the two halls and carried them flying as fast as they could to the East by exerting the force of the wind.

After crossing the Indian Ocean, Batara Bayu reaches an island that stretches long from its north-western tip and turns east. The island is none other than a combination of Sumatra, Java, and Bali in the present which was still a unity. Batara Guru then ordered Batara Bayu to stop in the Land of Padang,on the island of Sumatra now.


BATARA VISHNU DESTROYS VENOMOUS DARA

After Batara Bayu lowered the two halls, unexpectedly the magical Dove was still chasing and again spouting heat towards the gods and apsaras. Batara Guru was suspicious to see Batara Wisnu who remained fit, completely unharmed by the hot blast.

Batara Vishnu was forced to admit, that he secretly formed a friendship with the priest Usmanaji from the Children of Israel, and had exchanged knowledge with that person so that he was able to ward off the hot bursts of the pigeon. Batara Guru was furious and accused his youngest son of treason.

Batara Wisnu mourned the accusation. He then asked permission to face the pigeon. Batara Ramayadi reported that he had completed a powerful weapon called the Sudarsana Chakra. The weapon took the form of a sharp-toothed disc, which was then loaned to Batara Vishnu with the permission of Batara Guru.

Batara Vishnu forward received the Sudarsana Chakra, then threw it towards the venomous pigeon while saying a prayer of supplication to Almighty God in the heart. This time the bird could no longer escape. Once hit by Sudarsana Chakra weapon, the magical bird was immediately shattered into pieces into embers that fell at the foot of Mount Marapi.

Batara Guru was very happy to see the success of Batara Vishnu and apologized for the accusation. He also determined that the Sudarsana Chakra weapon from this time officially became the personal heirloom of Batara Vishnu. Batara Vishnu was very grateful and accepted it with joy.


THE GODS WERE EXPOSED TO CALAKUTA POISON

There was a demon king named Danghyang Calakuta who controlled all venomous animals in the Wisabawana Kingdom located at the foot of Mount Marapi. He was very surprised because suddenly there were a number of pieces of embers that fell on his residence. As a result, there was a severe fire that made many venomous animals of his men killed.

Danghyang Calakuta was furious and investigated what had actually happened. After knowing that the embers came from the dead pigeon killed by the gods, then he planned a corresponding revenge. With his power, Danghyang Calakuta then mixed the violent poison into a clear well at the foot of Mount Marapi.

Meanwhile, the gods and apsaras felt very thirsty due to being chased by the venomous pigeon. They then found a clear lake at the foot of Mount Marapi and immediately drank their fill with joy. It was strange, as soon as they drank the lake water, they all collapsed unconscious.

Batara Guru who had not had time to drink the lake water immediately conducted an investigation. After knowing that the lake water contains poison, then he inhaled the poison in the lake and stopped it in the esophagus. As a result, since then Batara Guru also has a blue striped neck as the number two defect, so he gets a new nickname as Sanghyang Nilakanta.

Batara Guru then healed the poisoned gods and apsaras using Lata Mahosadi. After recovering and rising from dying, they are welcome to drink again because the lake water is now free of toxins.


BATARA GURU AROUND PANJANG ISLAND

 Batara Guru then met Danghyang Calakuta who had spread poison in the lake earlier. There was a battle between them that ended with the victory of Batara Guru.

Danghyang Calakuta asked for forgiveness and told what had happened to his residence in Wisabawana, so he was desperate to take revenge by poisoning the lake water that the gods wanted to drink.

Batara Guru, who is currently experiencing a period of concern, feels that there is no point in prolonging the misunderstanding. He accepted Danghyang Calakuta's plea for forgiveness, and asked him to be his guide. Apparently Batara Guru was interested to see the Long Island and wanted to take a walk around it.

Danghyang Calakuta gladly escorted Batara Guru inspect the state of the island from the North-West End towards the South-East. The island is very beautiful and lush, with mountains lined up, but the inhabitants only consist of the bekasakan and spirits only.

After completing the tour, Batara Guru thanked Danghyang Calakuta and appointed him as a member of the gods with the title Batara Calakuta.

Batara Guru then gave the name of Pulau panjang where he lives now as the island of Java.


BATARA GURU BUILT THE ARGADUMILAH HEAVEN

 On his way around the island of Java, Batara Guru was attracted to a beautiful mountain called Mount Mahendra, which in modern times is called Mount Lawu. He felt fit to be there and wanted to build a new heaven as a temporary residence. Later if it is safe, he will certainly return to Tengguru Heaven in the Himalayas.

With his power, Batara Guru also built a heaven on the top of Mount Mahendra, which he later named Argadumilah Heaven. After it was enough, Marcukunda Hall and Marakata Hall were placed in the new heaven, so that the view in Argadumilah Heaven is now exactly the same as the view in Tengguru Heaven.


JAKA SENGKALA BECOMES KING

Meanwhile, in the Kingdom of Surati, King Iwasaka had heard the news about the move of Batara Guru to Java because of being chased by a venomous pigeon created by Nabi Isa. King Iwasaka felt very concerned and intended to follow there. He returned to Batara Anggajali and handed over the throne of Surati Kingdom to his son, Jaka Sengkala.

Jaka sengkala succeeded his father to become the leader of the Surati Kingdom with the title of King Ajisaka. After his son's inauguration ceremony was completed, Batara Anggajali then flew following Batara Guru to the island of Java and joined the gods in the Argadumilah Heaven.
