I do not believe in coincident occurrences. There are always Purpose behind Cause and consequence. However, when it comes continuously, it will mean different….

Day 1: Saturday, March 21, 2009 afternoon,

I visit my uncle Prof. Dr. I Gusti Putu Phalgunadi, M.A,Dr.Litt. in Puri Gerenceng, Denpasar to invite him for a small ceremony I am going to held in my own house. He left Bali in year of 1978, for almost 25 years to study History of Hindu in New Delhi, India and honored with Gold medal, Certificate in Karma Kandha (Reciting of Vedas and Performing Yajna).

I was impressed with his remark (after I expressed my recent works and achievements, an effusion of my dedication),

“Aja Wera Ila-Ila Dahat Tan Siddhi Phalanya…”

Knowledge only can be teach to they who believed and faithful, or otherwise it will be dangerous, never succeed in everything they did

“Only appeared mostly as a foot note in every of Ciwa Siddhanta and Ciwa Bhairawa manuscript and in Tantrayana (worshiping Cakti/Power or Devi/Dhurga)”

“Written in Bhuwana Kosa manuscript, during Empu Sendok Era”

Day2: Sunday, March 22, 2009 afternoon,

Day3: Monday, March 23, 2009,

I grabbed ‘Suardi’ -a local magazine focused in ‘the voice from world of Art’- from the very corner of my table, and it was there for weeks. Open it up, my eyes astonished to a profile article of Jay Subyakto, one of a view ‘bigwig’ to myself.
