        <title>Babad Bhuwana Winasa: The Turmoil and Decline of Bali&amp;apos;s Kingdoms</title>

        <guid>https://budayabali.com/babad-bhuwana-winasa-the-turmoil-and-decline-of-balis-kingdoms</guid>
        <description><![CDATA[ Babad Bhuwana Winasa is a babad manuscript numbered Va. 1565/4, originating from Munggu Village, Denpasar, written in Middle Old Javanese using the Balinese script, and consisting of 16 lontar leaves. The manuscript recounts historical events in the form of a kidung composed in Middle Old Javanese and performed in the Sekar Alit poetic tradition, describing the beginning of the decline of Bali&#039;s kingdoms in Saka 1840. The story begins with the King of Gianyar, Anak Agung Manggis, and his renowned attendant, I Made Pasek, and continues with the meeting of the rulers of Gianyar, Menguwi, and Badung with the Dalem in Klungkung to discuss their conflict with Apuan under I Gede Gejen, which ultimately resulted in Apuan&#039;s defeat. The chronicle then describes a series of conflicts across Bali, including unrest in Jembrana and Bongkasa, Badung&#039;s conflict with Menguwi, Karangasem and Singaraja against Payangan, and Sayan against Buduk, as well as the Tawan Karang incident in Sanur, which became a pretext for the Dutch attack on Badung. The story continues with the Puputan Badung and the involvement of Sanur, Intaran, Tanjung Bungkak, Kesiman, and the people of Badung as a whole. Ultimately, the widespread turmoil led to the kingdoms&#039; authority being taken over by the Dutch, while the rulers remained traditionally sovereign but were legally placed under Dutch authority. The chronicle concludes with Buleleng&#039;s defeat in the Jagaraga War in 1849, the defeat of Badung in 1906, and the Dutch takeover of the Kingdom of Klungkung in 1908. ]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[ The history of the Indonesian Archipelago is a history of the sea. In the 17th century, maritime kingdoms measured their power by the strength of their fleets to control trade routes and project influence across the seas. Among them, two kingdoms with very different characteristics emerged as dominant powers: the Kingdom of Gowa-Tallo (Makassar), which flourished as a cosmopolitan trading hub, and the Kingdom of Gelgel in Bali, which inherited the agrarian-maritime traditions of Majapahit. ]]></description>

        <title>Babad Usana Jawa: Chronicle of the Majapahit Kingdom&amp;apos;s Conquest of Bali Island</title>

        <guid>https://budayabali.com/babad-usana-jawa-chronicle-of-the-majapahit-kingdoms-conquest-of-bali-island</guid>
        <description><![CDATA[ Babad Usana Jawa is a babad (chronicle) manuscript preserved as part of the lontar (palm-leaf) collection at Gedong Kirtya, Singaraja, with several copies recorded in the institution&#039;s catalog with the script&#039;s number Va. 3438. The text is written in Old Javanese. Its story traces the history of the Majapahit Kingdom under a king ruling from Alas Terik, with Patih Gajah Mada and Sirarya Damar as the kingdom&#039;s two leading figures, before expanding to the affairs of Bali, then ruled by Sri Tapolung with Ki Pasunggrigis as his prime minister. The narrative continues through Majapahit&#039;s effort to conquer Bali, led by Arya Damar and Gajah Mada, with attacks launched from multiple directions until Bali fell into Majapahit&#039;s hands. Partway through the story, the arrival of an envoy named Kuda Pangasih bringing news of the state of the battle sets off a chain of events leading toward the end of the conquest. The story then continues to the point where the Arya brothers were each assigned to new territories in Bali, forming the final part of the narrative contained in this manuscript. ]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[ Not every story about Lake Tamblingan begins with the lake itself. In the area of Munduk Village, Banjar District, Buleleng Regency, Bali, stands  Dalem Tamblingan Temple, located around Lake Tamblingan and the forest area of Alas Merta Jati. Behind the calm atmosphere of this place lies a story of a disease outbreak, water believed to bring healing, and the journey of a figure named God Bahem. From a water source later known as Tamba Eling comes a tale believed to be connected to the name Tamblingan itself. This story is not only part of the history behind the name of a lake, but is also closely tied to  Tamblingan Dalem Temple and the ancestral land where the community has lived around Merta Jati since long ago. ]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[ In a sacred area of Banjar Adat Nyelati, Kuwum Village, there is a local story about water found around the roots of a tree. During the day, the place appears quiet and ordinary, much like a typical water source. However, when night falls, local people tell a story that the water can appear to float. Is this really a phenomenon that occurs, or is it part of a belief passed down from one generation to another? ]]></description>

Beginning with the journey of a pandhita and gradually developing into a traditional village, Cucukan has preserved its history and ancestral identity from one generation to the next. But how has a village with such strong ancestral roots managed to live side by side and maintain the spirit of menyama braya within a heterogeneous society? ]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[ Balinese traditional arts do not only thrive within formal performance spaces, but also grow organically through communities and family environments. One of the most important spaces in the process of preservation and regeneration of these arts is the sanggar (traditional arts studio). Sanggar Seni Guntur Madu is an example of a community-based sanggar that originated from a home environment and a banjar (traditional village unit), yet has successfully reached the international stage through its participation in embassy events in Vietnam. ]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[ The Ki Tambyak Chronicle is an ancestral tale recorded in an ancient Balinese lontar manuscript. The story begins with the miraculous birth of a baby on a rock by the shore of Lake Batur, son of the sage Begawan Maya Cakru, who then attained moksha (spiritual liberation) after naming him. The baby was raised by Kabayan Panarajon and the Bali Aga community until he was eventually summoned before Sri Haji Tapohulung. His victory in a duel against Kabayan Batu Sepih earned him the position of Patih (prime minister) during the reign of Sri Haji Bedhamurdi. Yet that glory did not last forever—the kingdom of Bedahulu fell to a Majapahit invasion led by Patih Gajah Mada, forcing Patih Tambyak&#039;s descendants to flee across Bali and disguise themselves as descendants of Arya Bandesa, until a new era of Balinese rule began under Sri Kresna Kapakisan. This chronicle is not merely a tale of mystical power, but a portrait of the Bali Aga&#039;s upheaval as it entered a new chapter of history under Majapahit&#039;s influence. ]]></description>

Set amid the grip of Dutch colonial rule in Buleleng, this Balinese language manuscript, written in the form of a Gaguritan, traces the growing tensions in the Kingdom of Banjar as its king, I Gusti Made Rai, makes a bold decision to reject the oppressive tribute system. As pressure from the Dutch envoys sparks anger and resistance among the people, can Banjar&#039;s defenses and the courage of its trusted patih withstand the assault of a war fleet approaching from afar? A story of struggle and the fate of a kingdom on the land of Bali. ]]></description>

The story begins with De Bandesa Kaywan’s grief over the death of his wife and continues through the arrival of Danghyang Kanaka from the Kling region, who would later pass down the swadharma teachings of blacksmithing to his descendants before returning to Java. The narrative then traces the ancestral lineage through the era of Prince Kayu Mas and Sira De Kayu Mas, who strengthened the blacksmithing tradition. Amid the dynamic movements of Arya figures and the displacement of people between regions such as Gelgel, Mambal, Sibang, and Jembrana, the Pande descendants’ bond of devotion persisted until Ki Pande eventually fled and settled in the village of Tista, Kerambitan. ]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[ On two bamboo poles reaching from knee to thigh height, Balinese children once learned something more than simply how to walk: how to keep their bodies steady while continuing to move forward. The game, known as Tajog, is simple in terms of its equipment, yet it carries valuable lessons about perseverance, hard work, and sportsmanship. As children become increasingly immersed in the digital world, Tajog can be brought back as a traditional game that encourages them to step away from their smartphone screens, stay physically active, and enjoy direct interaction with their friends. ]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[ A culture does not always disappear simply because people no longer know about it. Sometimes, it slowly fades when the generation meant to inherit it begins to choose a different path. But what happens when a culture has to survive far from the land where it was born, within a community of different backgrounds and among younger generations surrounded by countless choices? Who will make sure that the movements, values, and stories passed down from one generation do not stop with just one? And when no one is willing to learn it anymore, can a culture still be considered alive? ]]></description>

        <title>Babad Wisnuwangsa: Tracing the Lineage from Medang Kemulan to Bali</title>
        <link>https://budayabali.com/babad-wisnuwangsa-tracing-the-lineage-from-medang-kemulan-to-bali</link>
        <guid>https://budayabali.com/babad-wisnuwangsa-tracing-the-lineage-from-medang-kemulan-to-bali</guid>
        <description><![CDATA[ Babad Wisnuwangsa is a chronicle manuscript from the collection of 
Geria Kawan Sibetan, Sibetan Village, Bebandem, Karangasem. The 
manuscript is written in Old Javanese using Balinese script and 
consists of 38 folios. The story begins with a verse in Sanskrit 
along with its explanation in Old Javanese, then continues with the 
descent of Bhatara Hyang Dimaharaja Manu to Medang Kemulan in the 
year Çaka 530 (608 CE) by order of Sri Bhatara Guru. From Manu, the 
narrative traces the Wisnuwangsa lineage through a number of figures, 
including Sri Dharmawangsa, Sri Kameswara, Sri Erlangga, Sri 
Jayabaya, and Sri Jayasaba. The line of descent then continues down 
to Sirarya Kepakisan, who descended to Bali by order of Patih Gajah 
Mada and became patih adipati (regent-lord) Sri Kresna Kepakisan in 
Samprangan. From Sirarya Kepakisan, the lineage branched through 
Pangeran Asak and Pangeran Nyuhaya. The descendants of Pangeran Asak 
continued down to the kings of Mengwi, while the line of Pangeran 
Nyuhaya developed through a number of descendants connected to 
Karangasem, Sibetan, and Klungkung. This chronicle thus traces the 
long journey of the Wisnuwangsa lineage from Medang Kemulan through 
its development into various branches of descent in Bali. ]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[ The Babad Mengwi manuscript (Gedong Kirtya Collection No. Va. 1340/12), originally written on 66 palm leaves (lontar) in Old Javanese with Balinese script by I Gusti Putu Mayun, is a historical epic that records the rise and fall of the Arya dynasty&#039;s power on the Island of the Gods. This manuscript chronicles an extensive timeline, starting from the arrival of Sri Nararya Kresna Kapakisan and the golden era of the Gelgel Kingdom, to the emergence of political turmoils such as bloody rebellions and the Buleleng invasion that triggered the kingdom&#039;s collapse. Despite being fraught with intrigue, the diaspora of the royal family, and struggles over sacred heirlooms, this epic narrative ultimately culminates in a glorious resolution. Peace and the paramount glory of the Mengwi Kingdom were successfully restored under the wise leadership of Ida Cokorda Made Agung. ]]></description>

During his reign, he attended a royal assembly in Majapahit, and upon returning to Bali, he was escorted by 40 Muslim soldiers from Majapahit, who were then granted land in Gelgel as a place to settle. This marked the beginning of the oldest Muslim community in Bali, with Nurul Huda Mosque serving as their center of worship. His policies and leadership transformed Gelgel into the political and cultural center of Bali for centuries, leaving behind a significant historical legacy that contributed to intercultural relations on the island. ]]></description>
