10 KUALITAS KEPRIBADIAN BAIK

10 KUALITAS KEPRIBADIAN BAIK

Ketulusan
Ketulusan menempati peringkat pertama sebagai sifat yang paling disukai oleh
semua orang. Ketulusan membuat orang lain merasa aman dan dihargai karena
yakin tidak akan dibodohi atau dibohongi. Orang yang tulus selalu mengatakan
kebenaran, tidak suka mengada-ada, pura- pura, mencari-cari alasan atau
memutarbalikkan fakta. Prinsipnya “Ya diatas Ya dan Tidak diatas Tidak”.
Tentu akan lebih ideal bila ketulusan yang selembut merpati itu diimbangi
dengan kecerdikan seekor ular. Dengan begitu, ketulusan tidak menjadi
keluguan yang bisa merugikan diri sendiri.

Kerendahan Hati
Berbeda dengan rendah diri yang merupakan kelemahan, kerendah hatian justru
mengungkapkan kekuatan. Hanya orang yang kuat jiwanya yang bisa bersikap
rendah hati. Ia seperti padi yang semakin berisi semakin menunduk. Orang
yang rendah hati bisa mengakui dan menghargai keunggulan orang lain. Ia bisa
membuat orang yang diatasnya merasa oke dan membuat orang yang di bawahnya
tidak merasa minder.

Kesetiaan
Kesetiaan sudah menjadi barang langka & sangat tinggi harganya. Orang yang
setia selalu bisa dipercaya dan diandalkan. Dia selalu menepati janji, punya
komitmen yang kuat, rela berkorban dan tidak suka berkhianat.

Positive Thinking
Orang yang bersikap positif (positive thinking) selalu berusaha melihat
segala sesuatu dari kacamata positif, bahkan dalam situasi yang buruk
sekalipun. Dia lebih suka membicarakan kebaikan daripada keburukan orang
lain, lebih suka bicara mengenai harapan daripada keputusasaan, lebih suka
mencari solusi daripada frustasi, lebih suka memuji daripada mengecam, dan
sebagainya.

Keceriaan
Karena tidak semua orang dikaruniai temperamen ceria, maka keceriaan tidak
harus diartikan ekspresi wajah dan tubuh tapi sikap hati. Orang yang ceria
adalah orang yang bisa menikmati hidup, tidak suka mengeluh dan selalu
berusaha meraih kegembiraan. Dia bisa mentertawakan situasi, orang lain,
juga dirinya sendiri. Dia punya potensi untuk menghibur dan mendorong
semangat orang lain.

Bertanggung jawab
Orang yang bertanggung jawab akan melaksanakan kewajibannya dengan
sungguh-sungguh. Kalau melakukan kesalahan, dia berani mengakuinya.
Ketika mengalami kegagalan, dia tidak akan mencari kambing hitam untuk
disalahkan. Bahkan kalau dia merasa kecewa dan sakit hati, dia tidak akan
menyalahkan siapapun. Dia menyadari bahwa dirinya sendirilah yang
bertanggung jawab atas apapun yang dialami dan dirasakannya.

Percaya Diri
Rasa percaya diri memungkinkan seseorang menerima dirinya sebagaimana
adanya, menghargai dirinya dan menghargai orang lain. Orang yang percaya
diri mudah menyesuaikan diri dengan lingkungan dan situasi yang baru. Dia
tahu apa yang harus dilakukannya dan melakukannya dengan baik.

Kebesaran Jiwa
Kebesaran jiwa dapat dilihat dari kemampuan seseorang memaafkan orang lain.
Orang yang berjiwa besar tidak membiarkan dirinya dikuasai oleh rasa benci
dan permusuhan. Ketika menghadapi masa- masa sukar dia tetap tegar, tidak
membiarkan dirinya hanyut dalam kesedihan dan keputusasaan.

Easy Going
Orang yang easy going menganggap hidup ini ringan. Dia tidak suka
membesar-besarkan masalah kecil. Bahkan berusaha mengecilkan masalah-
masalah besar. Dia tidak suka mengungkit masa lalu dan tidak mau khawatir
dengan masa depan. Dia tidak mau pusing dan stress dengan masalah-masalah
yang berada di luar kontrolnya.

Empati
Empati adalah sifat yang sangat mengagumkan. Orang yang berempati bukan saja
pendengar yang baik tapi juga bisa menempatkan diri pada posisi orang lain.
Ketika terjadi konflik dia selalu mencari jalan keluar terbaik bagi kedua
belah pihak, tidak suka memaksakan pendapat dan kehendaknya sendiri. Dia
selalu berusaha memahami dan mengerti orang lain. posted by P.E.Saputra

Agan-Agan pernah denger Atlantis atau Lemuria, yang katanya benua dengan teknologi serba canggih dan maju. Nah artikel kali ini Ane mau menjelaskan tentang Benua atau Kota yang diyakini pernah ada Jaman Dulu tapi "Hilang" keberadaannya. CHECK IT OUT

"Lost Land" atau Tanah yang Hilang adalah benua, pulau-pulau atau daerah lain diyakini pernah ada selama prasejarah, tetapi mereka ini "hilang" karena hilang akibat dari fenomena geologi bencana atau naiknya permukaan air laut sejak akhir Zaman Es terakhir . Keberadaan tanah yang hilang ini diperkirakan telah tenggelam ke dasar laut, meninggalkan hanya beberapa jejak atau legenda dimana mereka diketahui. Istilah ini juga diperluas di dalam  ilmu Mitologi umum. Kenapa  tanah yang hilang diklasifikasikan dengan benua, pulau, atau daerah lain dalam beberapa kasus subjektif, misalnya, Atlantis  digambarkan dengan baik sebagai "Pulau yang Hilang" atau "benua Yang hilang". Teori tanah yang hilang kemungkinan berasal dari mitologi atau filsafat, dan teori-teori ilmiah seperti teori bencana geologi, yang nantinya bisa di tulis oleh siapapun atau penulis di luar akademisi. Okultisme dan  New Age writters banyak bercerita tentang tanah yang hilang, seperti halnya penduduk pribumi seperti Tamil di India. 

LYONESSE 

Many western cultures have myths of lost lands, where once lived our great ancestors. Typical is Lyonesse, a fabled land once said to exist between Land’s End and the Scilly Isles, off the British coast. 
On this land stood the city of Lions and some 140 churches. Folk tales, and later poets such as Tennyson, kept the fable alive by associating it with King Arthur. Thought to be the place of his birth, his death has also been associated with the lost land. Logically, it seems the fable arose from its association with the Breton town St-Pol-de-Leon, know to the Roman’s as Leo’s Castle




 

Jadi di atas menjelaskan bahwa pernah di sebutkan tentang dongeng Lyonessse sebuah kerajaan yang dihuni oleh Singa dan 140 gereja. letaknya antara Land's End dan Kepulauan Scilly (Lihat Gambar). Cerita ini menyebar oleh penyair Tennyson karena dihubungkan dengan Raja Arthur (Inggris) sebagai tempat lahirnya, juga tempat kematiannya. Secara logikanya sih ini bisa dijelaskan, cerita ini diasosiasikan dengan St- Pol- De Leon, atau orang-orang roma menyebutnya Leo's Castle. 

ATLAND 

Another such fable concerns Atland. First coming to popular attention in 1848, when antiquarian Cornelius Over de Linden first produced his Pera Linda Book, Atland is said to be an ancient land off the Dutch Frisian coast. With a sub-tropical climate and well advanced, happy population, a catastrophe struck in 2l93BC, destroying the land. Survivors went on to travel the world, founding Egyptian, Greek and Indian civilisations. The Oera Linda Book was written on cotton paper and de Linden claimed it came from 1256, copied from an even older work. Published in 1876, many people consider it a fraud.






Atland, populer di tahun 1848 saat seorang antiquarian Cornelius Over de Linden membuat buku Pera Linda Book, Atland disebutkan sebagai kota tua dari The Dutch Frisian Coast, dengan iklim sub-tropikal, maju dan damai. lalu sebuah tabrakan yang meluluhlantahkan menghancurkan kota itu, kota itu hancur pada tahun 2193 Before Christ (BC), orang-orang yang selamat pergi mengelilingi dunia, mendirikan peradaban Mesir, Yunani dan India. The Oera Linda Book ditulis di kertas kapas dan de Linden mengkalim bahwa bukunya ini berasal dari tahun 1256, di Copy dari buku yang lebih jadul dan diterbitkan tahun 1876, banyak orang menganggap buku ini BOHONG. (tapi namanya mirip-mirip atlantis nih broo)

LEMURIA 



Some lost lands are more modern, and said to be rationally theorised to have existed. For instance, there is a problem with a primitive group of primates called lemurs. They are found only on Madagascar, off the African coast. But they have close relatives in the bushbabies of Africa and the lorises of India. Prior to the understanding of continental drift, zoologists realised this was mysterious. How could such closely related species appear an ocean apart? The problem was first tackled in the 19th century by English zoologist Philip Sclater, who argued for a lost continent, which he called Lemuria.

In the 1870s, the idea was taken up by the likes of Huxley and Wallace, leading scientists of their day. Ernst Haeckel even went so far as to suggest Lemuria could be the origin of humankind. Mystics soon got into the act regarding this new ‘Garden of Eden’. Among them was Madame Blavatsky. Contacting her psychic ethereal beings, they told her that there had existed on Lemuria the Third Root Race of humanity. At this stage of their evolution they were brutish apes, Lemuria finally being destroyed in a cataclysm before humanity advanced and moved on to Atlantis. However, even though continental drift may explain the distribution of the lemurs, some still believe in the existence of this lost continent.



Lemuria adalah peradaban yang sangat maju, secara rasional dapat dijelaskan dan pernah ADA. Buktinya, bahwa ada masalah dengan sekumpulang primata yang dinamakan Lemurs. Mereka hanya bisa ditemukan di Madagaskar, jauh di pesisir Afrika. tapi mereka memiliki hubungan dengan Bushbabies ( nama primata atau monyet) dari Afrika dan Lorises ( nama monyet) dari India. Jika di lihat Menurut teori pergeseran benua, pakar zoologi menyadai bahwa ini sangat misterius. Kok bisa gitu species yang berkerabat dekat malah terpisah jauh? masalah ini bantah pada abad ke-19 oleh zoologi asal inggris Philip Sclater, yang membantah tentang benua yang hilang, benua itu bernama Lemuria. 

Di tahun 1870-an, idenya di ambil oleh orang-orang yang menyukai hal ini Huxley dan Wallace, ilmuan handal saat itu. Ernst Haeckel bahkan berpendapat bahwa Lemuria mungkin awal dari peradaban Manusia. Mystics(orang-orang yang percaya mistik) mengambil aksi atas berita ini 'Garden of Eden'. diantara mereka adalah Madame Blavatsky. yang telah berinteraksi dengan roh, dia berkata bahwa Lemuria adalah  the The Third Root Race of Humanity (Asal muasal manusia yang ke tiga). Tahapan dari evolusi, mereka dulunya adalah Bruthis Apes (Kera?), Lemuria akhirnya hancur sebelum lebih maju dan pindah ke Atlantis. Akan tetapi, walaupun teori pergeseran benua dapat menjelaskan penyebaran Lemurs, beberapa masih percaya bahwa Lemuria pernah ada.


MU = Lemuria

A further lost land is Mu, which, according to former Bengal Lancer, Col James Churchward, existed in the Pacific Ocean. Claiming to have found evidence in 1870 from clay tablets found in India, man first appeared here 200,000 years ago, advancing to a civilisation of ten tribes with some sixty million people. Also gaining knowledge from trance visits to previous lives, Churchward never produced any real evidence, but argued that the truth was found in legends throughout the world. Like Atlantis, Mu disappeared about 12,000 years ago following volcanic eruptions and tidal waves.



MU (Machester United kali eheheh gw gak tau bacanya) adalah salah satu benua yang hilang, menurut mantan Bengal Lancer ( atlet kuda tombak), Col James Churchward, Mu pernah ada di Samudra Pasifik. Dia juga mengklaim teleh menemukan bukti di tahun 1870 dari Tablet tanah liat yand dia temukan di India, Manusia pertama ada sejak 200.000 tahun lalu, memajukan 10 peradaban dengan 60 juta jiwa. Mereka juga mendapatkan pengetahuan tentang kembali ke masa lalu, Churchward gak pernah memperlihatkan bukti yang nyata, Mu "hilang" sekitar 12.000 tahun lalu karena Gunung Meletus dan Tsunami.

SHAMBHALA 

Shambhala was immortalised in the western mind by the hit film, Lost Horizon, based in the fantastic and mystical lost world of Shangri-la. A mythical land in many eastern traditions, it is most famously associated with the mysticism of Tibet. Shambhala is itself sanskrit for ‘the Source of Happiness’, as interpreted by Tibetan monks. In mythology it is a land hidden by a huge ring of snow-capped mountains. The kingdom itself is said to be shaped as an eight-petalled lotus blossom. The capital of Shambhala is said to be Kalapa, itself surrounded by a second ring of mountains. The inhabitants of Shambhala are said to be extremely healthy, wealthy and wise, having lived for hundreds of years in beautiful, gold-topped pagodas.




Shambhala di doktrinkan di barat dengan sebuah film rame, Lost Horizon, film ini diambil berdasarkan cerita dunia fantasi dan Mistik Shangri-la. Sebuah Dunia mistic yang banyak diketahui oleh orang-orang barat, terkenal karena dihubung-hubungkan dengan kemistikan Tibet. Shambala itu sendiri sanskrit untuk ' The Source of Happiness', seperti yang telah di interpretasikan oleh para Biksu di Tibet. Di mitos Shambala dikatakan sebagai sebagai dunia yang tersembunyi yang dikelilingi gunung-gunung besar bersalju. Istananya sendiri katanya berbentuk 8 daun lotus ( mirip cerita Sun Go Kong). Ibukota Shambala bernama Kalapa, yang katanya juga dikelilingi oleh gunung es. Habitat shambala sendiri katanya sangat sehat, subur dan makmur, hidup selama ratusan tahun dengan indah di dalam pagoda emas.

The Ark of the Covenant is described in the Bible as a sacred container, wherein rested the Tablets of stone containing the Ten Commandments as well as other sacred Israelite pieces. According to the Biblical account, the Ark was built at the command of God, in accord with Moses' prophetic vision on Mount Sinai (Exodus 25:9-10). God communicated with Moses "from between the two cherubim" on the Ark's cover (Exodus 25:22). The Ark and its sanctuary were "the beauty of Israel" (Lamentations 2:1). Rashi and some Midrashim suggest that there were two arks - a temporary one made by Moses, and a later one made by Bezalel (Hertz 1936) 


The Biblical account relates that during the trip of the Israelites, the Ark was carried by the priests ~2,000 cubits (Numbers 35:5; Joshua 4:5) in advance of the people and their army or host (Num. 4:5-6; 10:33-36; Psalms 68:1; 132:8). When the Ark was borne by priests into the bed of the Jordan, the river was separated, opening a pathway for the whole of the host to pass over (Josh. 3:15-16; 4:7-18). The Ark was borne in a seven day procession around the wall of Jericho by three priests sounding seven trumpets of rams' horns, the city taken with a shout (Josh. 6:4-20). When carried, the Ark was always wrapped in a veil, in tachash skins (the identity of this animal is uncertain), and a blue cloth, and was carefully concealed, even from the eyes of the Levites who carried it. 

No ancient relic causes so much controversy as the Ark of the Covenant. The subject of Spielberg’s ‘Raiders of the Lost Ark’, featuring the intrepid Indiana Jones, the film does not exaggerate the passions the mystery of its location and power entails. Believed to have been constructed from acacia wood by Moses on Mount Sinai about 1250BC, the wooden chest is overlain with solid gold on both the inside and outside. 3ft 9in long and 2ft 3in wide and high, it has a lid of solid gold with a pair of cherubim. Gold rings attached to the Ark’s sides allow poles to pass through to be carried. 



WHY AN ARK? 

Built according to Divine instructions, the Ark carried the two tablets upon which God scribed the Ten Commandments. Symbolic of the covenant God made between Himself and the people of Israel, it was said to be the focus of God’s presence. Carried by Levites, members of one of the twelve tribes of Israel, it always went ahead of the Israelites as they wandered through the desert, even going ahead of their armies as they waged war. When camped, the Ark was placed at the centre of a temporary sanctuary known as the Tabernacle. This centre became known as the Holy of Holies. Once the Promised Land was conquered and the Temple constructed at Jerusalem, the Ark was placed in the Holy of Holies of the temple. In this respect we can see the Ark as the central symbol of faith. Some mystical Jews have even drawn an analogy of the Ark, with its two tablets inside, with the brain and its two cerebral hemispheres. The Ark remained the centre of their religion until after the Exile to Babylon in the 6th century BC. 





OBJECT OF MYSTERY 


Today there are two central mysteries concerning the Ark of the Covenant - namely, where is it, and what strange powers did it have? The former enigma comes from its remarkable history. According to the Old Testament, some time around 1000BC the Ark was captured by the Philistines. For reasons we will narrate later, they eventually let it go, sending it away strapped to a cart pulled by two cows. Reclaimed by the Israelites, they took it to Kiriath¬ Jearim, with King David eventually taking it to Jerusalem. Here, in 955BC, King Solomon placed it in the Holy of Holies of the first Temple. At one stage one tradition speaks of it being stolen by Menelik, son of Solomon and Sheba and taken to Axum in Ethiopia. Another tradition speaks of it being taken by the prophet Jeremiah to an unknown cave prior to the Babylonian destruction of the Temple in 587BC. What exactly happened is not known - it could have been simply destroyed - but the Ark was never seen again. 





WHERE IS IT? 

There are several theories concerning the location of the Ark. In 1952 a scroll known as the Copper Scroll was found near the caves at Qumran where the famous Dead Sea Scrolls were found. The scroll purportedly contains a list of sacred items that used to reside in Herod the Great’s second Temple, destroyed by the Romans in 70AD. Among the listed items, it is thought, is the Ark. This discovery eventually fascinated American archaeologist Vendyl Jones. As director of the Institute for Judaic Christian Rsearch in Texas, Jones, who claims to be the real Indiana Jones, led an expedition to the area in March 1992. Claiming to have unearthed incense from the Temple, in May the Israeli Antiquities Authority suddenly stopped the excavation without explanation. Could the Ark be buried near Qumran? Graham Hancock thinks not. According to him, the Ark remained in the Temple at Jerusalem until about 650BC. 




CHURCH OF ST MARY 

At this time Judea was ruled by a pagan king called Manasseh. Fearing he would destroy the Ark, the priests clandestinely removed it to a new temple in Elephantine in Egypt. In 410BC this temple was destroyed. Rescued, Hancock claims the Ark was taken to Lake Tana in Ethiopia, and in 350AD to Axum. Being placed in a specially constructed Church of St Mary of Zion, except for minor removals during medieval times, it has remained there ever since. To this day the church is guarded by a single monk known as the guardian of the Ark, spending his entire lifetime protecting the relic and allowing no one inside. Whether the real Ark is really in the church, no one knows, but certainly a replica of the Ark exists here, and is carried in procession once a year during the feast of Timkat. However, apart from the mystery of its location, just as intriguing are powers that are said to be invested in the Ark. 



REMARKABLE POWERS 

The Old Testament speaks clearly of the Divine power of the Ark. When captured by the Philistines, they quickly got rid of it when they came down with a terrifying plague which caused cancerous tumours. At Jericho the Ark was marched around the walls, and it is said to have been its power that caused the walls to fall down. Others who inadvertently touched it were instantly killed, and only a chosen few could manage to carry it on its poles, well over a hundred yards ahead of the people. Moses himself is said to have had a face that shined, and usually wore a cowl, after building the Ark. Due to such powers, many theories have been offered as to what the Ark really was. Some even believe it was actually a small nuclear reactor, hence the cancerous boils, Moses’s ‘radiation effects’ and its seemingly miraculous power. 




POWERS EXPLAINED? 

Of course, easy answers can be placed on the powers of the Ark. It is well accepted that the walls of Jericho fell due to earthquake activity. Similarly, belief in its power was all that was needed for the Philistines to imagine disaster, possibly even causing some form of hysterically induced poltergeist activity. As for the dangers of boils from being too close to the Ark, suggestion can easily cause illness in such a superstitious culture. Curses are known to happen in many primitive societies, based on the absolute belief that a curse can work. But all this is irrelevant to the real power of the Ark. Thought of as the throne for the earthly power of an invisible God, it represented the very centre of faith to the people who birthed the idea of monotheism. In this, sense, whether real or imagined, the Ark of Covenant remains an icon of world-changing proportions. And there is no greater power than this.

BESARKAN HATI SESAMA

Demikian banyak jiwa baik
di dunia ini yang sedang galau
dan kecil hati mengenai
masa depan mereka.

...Mereka berdiri
di bawah sinar yang salah,
sehingga mereka melihat diri sendiri
sebagai korban,
yang harus selalu kalah,
yang tidak bernasib baik,
dan yang tidak boleh
mengharapkan lebih baik
dari sedikit yang telah diberikan
oleh orang lain.

Semoga Tuhan memampukan kita
untuk membesarkan hati sesama.

How to make Cropcircle 10 steps/Cara membuat crop circle dengan 10 langkah

Crop circles (a generic term for the phenomenon of flattened plants) form in many areas of the world, with visual effects ranging from irregular shapes to amazing geometric patterns. The source of their formation is surrounded by controversy (see How to Explain Crop Circles), but there are some crop circles out there that have definitely been made by people. If you've ever wanted to explore making crop circles as a skill and an art form, here's how!

Crop circles (sebuah fenomena pada tanaman-tanaman yang merunduk atau membentuk pola) terbetuk di banyak tempat di Dunia, dengan efek fisual jarak jauh, dan membentuk gambar-gambar yang tidak biasa ampe bentuk geometris yang luar biasa. Bentuk-bentuk itu pada dasarnya diselimuti kontroversi, tapi ada juga crop circle yang dibuat oleh manusia. jika kamu mau memahami cara membuat crop circle sebagai sebuah kemampuan seni, Ini dia!....

1
Choose a legal location for your crop circle. Obtain permission from the land owner before you start planning. Ideal choices are sloped fields that rise from public vantage points (a road for instance), or even an amphitheater-like valley.

1. Sebelum buat crop circle, pilih tempat dulu. MINTA IZIN! ama yang punya itu tempat, syukur ngasih sesajen (satu dus bungkus rokok wkwkwkwk....), tempat idelnya adalah sawah deket jalan mobil. tuh kan bener.

2
Touching circles form a basic design.
Touching circles form a basic design.
Plan your crop circle using a large scale map, to ensure access for both you and your audience.

Plot your straight-line or circular design. Mark on the map the directions you will be flattening, to avoid visible signs of passage (inexperienced circle makers can spoil a design by leaving stripes like a lawnmower would).
Initial access is normally through existing farm tracks and trails, so note the position of them before you start.

2. Rencanain Crop Circle kamu menggunakan peta yang gede, buat mastiin orang-orang bisa ngeliat itu crop circle.

buat dulu dasarnya dengan bentuk lurus ato bulet. tandai petanya. cari tempat dimana kamu bisa lewat ke tanda itu biasanya deket jalan setapak sawah dimana para petani jalan disitu.


3
True non-disc curves are much harder to achieve, and rarely if ever witnessed.
True non-disc curves are much harder to achieve, and rarely if ever witnessed.
Create your design on computer, and make amendments until you have the design you can be proud of
Use inspiration from state-of-the-art designs as seen on the internet (see External Links).
Practicing shape-making in the field will only result in people seeing your mistakes.
Start simple: consider making your first crop circle from an arrangement of discs in a geometric formation. More advanced curved lines can be created by overlapping partial circular arcs.


3. Buat disain gambar crop circle mu menggunakan Komputer, dan buat se-ajib mungkin.
Mending nyari inspirasi dari internet. Latihan membuat bentuk itu di sawah punya orang bakalan bikin orang marah kalo gak minta izin dulu.
jadi mending pertama-tama buat crop circle itu dengan formasi yang udah diatur dari bentuk luar ke dalem. Kalo bentuk yang agak melengkung bisa di buat dengan overlapping partial circular arcs.<--cari di google

4.Equip each member with the equipment listed under Things You'll Need.

4. lengkapi setiap orang yang mau bikin crop circle ato anggota kamu dengan perlengkapan yang kamu perlukan
  • A light plank (4-6 feet in length) with a rope (10-12 feet) knotted through holes in each end. Alternatively, you may prefer to buy a light garden roller from a garden centre.
  • A surveryors reel measuring tape as it doesnt stretch. Rope or nylon can be used but may stretch and make wobbly edges to circles.
  • Marking poles - paint tips white to aid visibility at night
  • Protractor for measuring angles
  • Measuring tape (100 ft)
  • Night-vision goggles (kacamata yang bisa melihat dalam gelap) (optional) - your eyes adjust to complete dark in 20 minutes.
  • Laser-pointer to assist placing markers (optional)
  • A really good imagination! (rdn)
 5.Once in the field, use measurements to place markers exactly. Your friends can help you place markers, make line-of-sight calculations, and lay the rope to mark areas for flattening

5. Saat di sawah, gunakan alat ukur, untuk menandai tempat-tempat secara tepat sasaran. Teman mu bisa bantu kamu, buat line-of-sight calculatons<---cari di google, dan simpen tali di tempat itu sebagai tanda buat mendatarkan padi-padinya.

Using construction lines to make more complex shapes.
Using construction lines to make more complex shapes.
Make construction lines by laying rope outlines to shapes. Then flatten circles at the intersection points. To make the shown example formation, create a rope outline of a equilateral triangle, and create flattened circles at the triangle corners. Avoid flattening over the rope, to create an implied triangle.
6. buat construction lines dengan cara menyimpan tambang di bentuk luar. (ane kurang ngerti nih) jadi intinya tali itu adalah sebagai garis batas untuk membentuk crop circle..jadi kalo bulat talinya juga harus bulat..nah waktu bikin padinya datar jangan ampe ngebuat datar yang diluar garis ato tali tersebut NOTE: Tali yang dimaksud bukan tali rapia..tapi tali yang lebih padat dan kuat kayak tali tambang ato  TALI KOLOR LU (ekekekek).

7
There are two methods commonly used to flatten:
  • Plank Flattening - use a roped plank (see Things You'll Need) to flatten by holding the rope or looping it over your shoulders. Press forwards and down by keeping one foot on the plank. Advance using a shuffling gait.
  • Using a roller - some circlemakers prefer using a light roller (available from garden centers) to speed up flattening.
7. ada dua metode buat ngedatarin padi.
     * Plank Flattening- menggunakan tali plank<--cari di google untuk ngedatarin si padi dengan menarik tali atau mengikatnya di bahu. Tarik ke atas dan kebawah talinya (kalo dalam bayangan ane nih, si tali di bentangkang dari ujung ke ujung trus lu tarik jadi kan datar ato bengkok tuh..sisanya yang gak bengkok lu injek2...kayaknya gitu deh hehe ngasal)

     * menggunakan stum dorong- beberapa pembuat crop cirlce lebih enak menngunakan ini (tersedia di toko kebun dan dijual terpisah hehe) buat mempercepat pendataran.



8
Keep on flattening until you have completed your design and have a really nice, well-made complex formation.

8. Terus datarin tuh sawah ampe bener-bener selese bentuk disain kamu yang ajib, bahasa gaulnya.. ajibun complek formesen alias bentuk yang rumit.



9
Wait for the media to spot the new formation. This may take several days, or you can speed the process by making an anonymous call. A good design will provide local newspapers with many column-inches of speculation.

9. Tunggu ampe berita nyiarin bentuk crop circle lu. Mungkin perlu beberapa hari, ato kamu bisa mempercepat proses-nya dengan menelepon. Bentuk yang menarik bakalan membuat koran lokal memberitakan beberapa kolom dengan spekulasi-spekulasi UFO.


10
Ask local pilots if they can try and help your research by photographing for you when passing and leave them your email address.

10. Tanya Ojek PILOT setempat apakah mereka bisa dimintai tolong buat nganterin kamu melihat crop circle mu dari atas, jangan lupa kirim email. Gak deng jadi apakan pilot setempat mau buat Poto crop circle mu trus minta gambarnya dengan cara kirim lewat email..
Sip Ane rasa cukup sekian and Thanks to you reader

Berdoa lah Sebelum di Doakan

Mudah bagi siapa pun
untuk melupakan Tuhan
dan bahkan menganggap
bahwa dirinya telah cukup,
saat semuanya aman dan lancar.
...
Tetapi,
dalam kesulitan yang ancamannya
sangat nyata terhadap kebaikan nama
dan keselamatan jiwanya,
tidak ada orang yang bagaimana pun
kerontangnya hatinya dari iman,
yang tidak akan secara rahasia
berdoa kepada Tuhan.

Marilah kita berdoa,
sebelum berdoa dipaksakan atas kita.

Anting-anting The magical Amulet

Well, mungkin kalian pernah mendengar kata anting-anting yang kalo dalam bahasa Indonesianya ya anting, tapi antingnya banyak jadi disebut anting-anting : D...artinya bukan itu sih, tapi ane pernah denger kata anting-anting dari ortu...ane pikir sih anting yang di kuping jadi ya gak terlalu dianggap...

Tapi tahukah kamu bahwa Anting-anting itu bukanlah benda sejenis anting yang saya jelaskan di atas....Mereka memiliki kekuatan magisn penuh rahasia dan...cekidot




I only know what my father told me. "Anting Anting" was some sort of object that was supposed to provide some kind of protection and possibly give you some sort of "power". I got the impression it was like a protective amulet or charm. However, the kind my father talked about was nothing like the charms shown on the page you linked. In my father's family, "Anting Anting" was something that was passed down from one person to another, and not something just anyone could get. In fact, my father said that his grandfather kept his inside his body somehow. The few times he saw it, my great-gradfather apparently took it out of his mouth. I can't remember the description my father told me, but I did not get the feeling that it had the Catholic symbology seen on the charms from the page you linked. Unfortunately I don't know much more, as my grandmother prevented her father from passing his "Anting Anting" along to my father. She was afraid it would put my father into danger and make him a "troublemaker". Her father was apparently quite a chjaracter, known for his fighting skill and willingness to use that skill. That is also the reason why my father never learned the type of FMA my great-grandfather practiced. It supposedly involved using long sticks or bolos. In any case, learning the martial art and getting the "Anting Anting" were linked. One went with the other. This does agree with other references to "Anting Anting" I have seen over the years. It is usually some sort of protective charm, amulet or tattoo used to protect practitioners of FMA. Something similar but different is the "Orascion". A protective prayer that is often said. I have no direct experience with that, but if you are interested in "Anting Anting", you might want to look into that as well.

Chris Vivo

Menurut Chris Vivo diatas, menjelaskan bahwa Anting-anting itu adalah object yang seharusnya memiliki kemampuan untuk melindungi dan memungkinkan untuk memberikan kamu sejenis "kekuatan", (yah mirip-mirip Jimat katanya). Katanya lagi Anting-anting itu diturunkan turun temurun, dan gak sembarangan orang bisa dapet. Faktanya, kakenya bokapnya si Chris Vivo ini menyimpan Anting-anting itu di dalam tubuhnya..(OMG ga kebayang kalo di tempat yang itu :P), cuman beberapa kali bokapnya itu ngeliat bokapnya (alias kakek si Chris) ngeluarin anting-anting itu dari mulutnya.


There are apparently a wide variety of Anting Anting of Christian, Muslim and Animist varieties.
I have heard of anting anting kept internally.
Usually carved stones that are kept under the tongue or swallowed.
I know a few practitioners who use anting anting and they generally do not talk about them.
From what I understand Oracion are prayers that are often tattoos.
Nah Menurut Tom, jadi banyak jenis Anting-anting itu dari Kristen, Muslim dan animisme. Yang bisanya di simpen di bawah mulut atau ditelan itu biasanya batu yang diukir. Tapi ada juga yang jenisnya tatoo namanya Oracion.

Islam In America Before Columbus

Assalamualaikum...

We have to be proud as Muslim. I found an article about Muslim in the past, the amazing thing is i found an article about Muslim in America before Columbus come, How could this be?..well it was a long story

have a look and read it..

these are the pictures GAN !!





Before I begin this article, I would like to extend my thanks to the creators of the Internet. It was there that I found my research on the topic that follows, and it is to the people who wrote the various articles and references that credit for this article should go to. I merely put two and two together for the benefit of those reading this now. The history surrounding the followers of our proud faith is one of two shades; the truth and the lie. The lies surrounding our history have been spread to every corner of the globe; that we were and are (?) barbarians, no better than animals. The truth is that although there were certain parts of history that do show that some of our followers were ruthless and brutal (such as the Ottoman Empire), this is not unlike every nation and country in the world. And we have a much more worthy things to focus on.


Before the West declared themselves the great scientists of the earth, before their own Renaissance, Muslims already were making discoveries in science that took the West hundreds of years to even begin to imagine. What a shame that people in Europe were being persecuted by the Church for their suppositions that the earth was round; they should have come to the Islamic world--- an Afghan Muslim had proved that in 793 C.E.!


However, the studying of the universe brought forth more questions, and more curiosity. The Muslims in West Africa were so intrigued by what was on the other side of the Great Sea, that they began their expeditions into the great unknown. Early reports of these travels are sketchy, but we can be sure that they crossed the Atlantic by 889 C.E.


That was 603 years before Columbus. And that is not counting the actual physical evidence in the United States today that dates back even further; however, we do know, as De Lacy O'Leary pointed out, that Muslims definitely had the scientific knowledge and skill to make journeys across the Atlantic ocean.


We were in the Americas, hundreds of years before Columbus, and of that we can be sure.


Clyde-Ahmad Winters. Barry Fell. Alexander Von Wuthenau. Ivan Van Sertima. What do they have in common? A lot. They all provided evidence to the above statement; and it is a statement of fact, not an opinion, although many have chosen to ignore it in the past.
Now, we are all aware of the grave tragedy that befell the various African people after the discovery of America. Many people from there were forcefully taken from their homes to America, to serve the people who had taken over that land. Black slavery. We also know, for a fact, that many of these people were indeed Muslims; that has never been in dispute, nor should it be. Clyde Ahmad Winters has given us details of how huge numbers of Muslims were brought to Latin America in a 1978 issue of Al-Ittihad: A Quarterly Journal of Islamic Studies, although later on in 1543, Muslims in Spanish colonies were ejected from them by the residing government.
Dr. Barry Fell, a noted New Zealand archaeologist and linguist of Harvard University showed detailed existing evidence in his work, "Saga America" that Muslims were not only in the Americas before Columbus arrived, but very active there as well. The language of the Pima people in the South West and the Algonquian language had many words in their vocabulary that were Arabic in origin, and Islamic petroglyphs were found in places such as California.


In the Inyo county of the State of California, according to Fell, there is another petroglyph that states, "Yasus bin Maria" which means in Arabic, "Jesus, son of Mary". This is not a Christian phrase; in fact, the phrase is to be found in the verses and ayahs of the Holy Quran. This glyph, as Fell believes, is centuries older than the US. In the Western states of the US he found texts, diagrams and charts engraved on rocks that were used for schooling that dated back to 700-800 C.E. The schooling was in subjects such as mathematics, history, geography, astronomy and sea navigation. The language of instruction was Kufic Arabic, from North Africa.


The German art historian, Alexander Von Wuthenau, also provides evidence that Islamic peoples were in America, in the time between 300 and 900 C.E. This was at least half a millennium before Columbus was born! Carved heads, that were described as "Moorish-looking" were dated between 300 and 900 C.E. and another group of heads dated between 900 and 1500 C.E. An artifact found in the earlier group was photographed, and when later examined was found to resemble an old man in a Fez, like the Egyptians.


Ivan Van Sertima is widely renowned for his work, "They Came Before Columbus" which showed that there was definitely contact between the ancient and early African people with the Native Americans. This and another of his works, "African Presence in Early America" both prove that there were African Muslim settlements in the Americas, before the expedition of Columbus was even conceived. His research has shown that Arab Muslim trade was active in America and one can only imagine that the marvellous culture that the Native Americans had that shared so much with Islamic teachings was of great attraction to the Muslims that came so far across the sea.
And for the record, Christopher Columbus, the man who so-called discovered America, himself declared that his impression of the Carib people (i.e., Caribbean people) were "Mohemmedans." He knew of the Mandinka presence in the New World (Muslims) and that Muslims from the West coast of Africa had settled down in the Carribean, Central, South and North America. Unlike Columbus, they had not come to enslave the populations or plunder the land; they had come to trade and they married among the Natives. Columbus further admitted that on October 21st, 1492, as he was sailing past Gibara on the coast of Cuba, he saw a mosque, and remnants of other masjids have been found in Cuba, Mexico, Texas and Nevada.
On the second voyage Columbus took to the West Indies, the people of Haiti told him that "black" people had been there before him. They showed him spears of these visitors, and further study of the metals involved in their construction showed that they could have been made only in one place: Guinea.


Another historian, P.V. Ramos, also showed in his essay in "African Presence in Early America" that the dietary regulations of the Carib were similar to Islamic teachings.


But let us say that we are wrong. Perhaps it is all just a coincidence; after all, there are no living survivors of the Native American Muslims, are they?


Wrong. And this last part is what originally drew me into this quest for knowledge: an exposé written by a Native Muslim.


Brother Mahir Abdal-Razzaaq El wrote in his account, recently posted on the Internet, about the Native Americans that were Muslims. He is of the Cherokee tribe; known as Eagle Sun Walker, and a Pipe Carrier Warrior of the Cherokees in New York. He tells of Muslim travellers that came to his land over one thousand years ago, and what is more important, existing evidence of legislation, treaties and resolutions that prove, beyond the shadow of a doubt that Muslims were in the Americas and very active. Although these documents have not been written after 1492, it is still interesting to note that Islam was in fact there. The Treaty of Peace and Friendship of 1787 have the signatures of Abdel-Khak and Mohammed Bin Abdulla. According to a federal court case from the Continental Congress,
Native Muslims helped put life into the constitution.


These are a matter of record; they cannot be disputed. Go to the National Archives or the Library of Congress and see for yourself; the Treat of 1987 show that the Natives abided by an Islamic system in commerce, maritime shipping and government. The records of the State of Carolina has the Moors Sundry Act of 1790. The Cherokee Chief of 1866 was a man called Ramadhan Bin Wati. Native clothing up until 1832 was full Islamic wear. The name Tallahassee actually means," Allah will deliver you sometime in the future." In North America, there are no less than 565 names of tribes, villages, cities, mountains and other lands sites of Islamic or Arabic roots.
The truth of Islam and the truth of the Native American culture is one and the same; many people hundreds of years ago realised that. The protection of the land and of the animals; the non-wastage of resources and the non-pollution of nature are all Islamic concepts.
I finish this article with a few Native sayings. And then, I want you to tell me that Islam is not nurtured in the hearts of these people.
"Our belief is that the Great Spirit has created all things. Not just mankind but animals, all plants, all rocks, all on earth and amongst the stars with true soul. For us, all life is holy. All of nature is within us and we are part of all nature." Chief White Cloud
"What is life? It is the flash of a firefly in the night." Crowfoot
"In the life of the Indian there was only one inevitable duty- the duty of prayer - the daily recognition of the Unseen and the Eternal." Ohiyesa
Allahu akbar. Salaam wa allaykum wa rakhmatullah wa barakatu.


When this article was written] Hisham Zoubeir is at the University of Sheffield undertaking a multi-disciplinary degree in law. He has lived in Abu Dhabi, Cairo and London. His main interests delves into peace, equality, righteousness and spirituality.
LONG LIVE ISLAM....ALLAHUAKBAR!!

OWL

OWL in Myth

Several days ago, i watched film with owls for the main character, as i have observed before, many myth about owl related to paganism or totem worship. It is interesting also because i found an article about an owl in one dollar surface. It also my reason "to give a try" explains or provides some information about owl in myth, only at my blog brillian2.blogspot.com

let's the party started

Owls in Greek & Roman Mythology

In the mythology of ancient Greece, Athene, the Goddess of Wisdom, was so impressed by the great eyes and solemn appearance of the Owl that, having banished the mischievous crow, she honoured the night bird by making him her favourite among feathered creatures. Athene's bird was a Little Owl, (Athene noctua). This Owl was protected and inhabited the Acropolis in great numbers. It was believed that a magical "inner light" gave Owls night vision. As the symbol of Athene, the Owl was a protector, accompanying Greek armies to war, and providing ornamental inspiration for their daily lives. If an Owl flew over Greek Soldiers before a battle, they took it as a sign of victory. The Little Owl also kept a watchful eye on Athenian trade and commerce from the reverse side of their coins.

In early Rome a dead Owl nailed to the door of a house averted all evil that it supposedly had earlier caused. To hear the hoot of an Owl presaged imminent death. The deaths of Julius Caesar, Augustus, Commodus Aurelius, and Agrippa were apparently all predicted by an Owl.
"...yesterday, the bird of night did sit Even at noonday, upon the market place, Hooting and shrieking" (from Shakespeare's "Julius Caesar")
The Roman Army was warned of impending disaster by an Owl before its defeat at Charrhea, on the plains between the Euphrates and Tigris rivers.
According to Artemidorus, a second Century soothsayer, to dream of an Owl meant that a traveller would be shipwrecked or robbed.
Another Roman superstition was that witches transformed into Owls, and sucked the blood of babies.
In Roman Mythology, Proserpine (Persephone) was transported to the underworld against her will by Pluto (Hades), god of the underworld, and was to be allowed to return to her mother Ceres (Demeter), goddess of agriculture, providing she ate nothing while in the underworld. Ascalpus, however, saw her picking a pomegranate, and told what he had seen. He was turned into an Owl for his trouble - "a sluggish Screech Owl, a loathsome bird." (Names in brackets indicate the Greek names for the same Gods)

Owls in English Folklore

Folklore surrounding the Barn Owl is better recorded than for most other Owls. In English literature the Barn Owl had a sinister reputation probably because it was a bird of darkness, and darkness was always associated with death. During the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, the poets Robert Blair and William Wordsworth used the Barn Owl as their favourite "bird of doom." During that same period many people believed that the screech or call of an Owl flying past the window of a sick person meant imminent death.
The Barn Owl has also been used to predict the weather by people in England. A screeching Owl meant cold weather or a storm was coming. If heard during foul weather a change in the weather was at hand.
The Custom of nailing an Owl to a barn door to ward off evil and lightning persisted into the 19th century.
Another traditional English belief was that if you walked around an Owl in a tree, it would turn and turn its head to watch you until it wrung its own neck.
Among early English folk cures, alcoholism was treated with Owl egg. The imbiber was prescribed raw eggs and a child given this treatment was thought to gain lifetime protection against drunkenness.
Owls' eggs, cooked until they turned into ashes, were also used as a potion to improve eyesight.
Owl Broth was given to children suffering from Whooping-cough.
Odo of Cheriton, a Kentish preacher the 12th Century has this explanation of why the Owl is nocturnal: The Owl had stolen the rose, which was a prize awarded for beauty, and the other birds punished it by allowing it to come out only at night.
In parts of northern England it is good luck to see an Owl.

Owls in American Indian Culture

Among the different American Indian tribes, there are many diverse beliefs regarding the Owl. Presented here are some of those beliefs.
According to an Indian legend, the 'Spedis Owl' carving was placed on a rock to serve as a protector from the 'water devils' and monsters that could pull a person into the water. The owl on a rock may have also indicated the ownership of that location for fishing.

To an Apache Indian, dreaming of an Owl signified approaching death.

Cherokee shamans valued Eastern Screech-Owls as consultants as the owls could bring on sickness as punishment.

The Cree people believed Boreal Owl whistles were summons from the spirits. If a person answered with a similar whistle and did not hear a response, then he would soon die.

The Dakota Hidatsa Indians saw the Burrowing Owl as a protective spirit for brave warriors.

The Hopis Indians see the Burrowing Owl as their god of the dead, the guardian of fires and tender of all underground things, including seed germination. Their name for the Burrowing Owl is Ko'ko, which means "Watcher of the dark" They also believed that the Great Horned Owl helped their Peaches grow.

The Inuit believed that the Short-eared Owl was once a young girl who was magically transformed into an Owl with a long beak. But the Owl became frightened and flew into the side of a house, flattening its face and beak.
They also named the Boreal Owl "the blind one", because of its tameness during daylight. Inuit children make pets of Boreal Owls.

Native Northwest coast Kwagulth people believed that owls represented both a deceased person and their newly-released soul.

The Kwakiutl Indians were convinced that Owls were the souls of people and should therefore not be harmed, for when an Owl was killed the person to whom the soul belonged would also die.

The Lenape Indians believed that if they dreamt of an Owl it would become their guardian.

The Menominee people believed that day and night were created after a talking contest between a Saw-whet Owl (Totoba) and a rabbit (Wabus). The rabbit won and selected daylight, but allowed night time as a benefit to the vanquished Owl.

The Montagnais people of Quebec believed that the Saw-whet Owl was once the largest Owl in the world and was very proud of its voice. After the Owl attempted to imitate the roar of a waterfall, the Great Spirit humiliated the Saw-whet Owl by turning it into a tiny Owl with a song that sounds like dripping water.

To the Mojave Indians of Arizona, one would become an Owl after death, this being and interim stage before becoming a water beetle, and ultimately pure air.

According to Navajo legend, the creator, Nayenezgani, told the Owl after creating it "...in days to come, men will listen to your voice to know what will be their future"

California Newuks believed that after death, the brave and virtuous became Great Horned Owls. The wicked, however, were doomed to become Barn Owls.

In the Sierras, native peoples believed the Great Horned Owl captured the souls of the dead and carried them to the underworld.

The Tlingit Indian warriors had great faith in the Owl; they would rush into battle hooting like Owls to give themselves confidence, and to strike fear into their enemies.

A Zuni legend tells of how the Burrowing Owl got its speckled plumage: the Owls spilled white foam on themselves during a ceremonial dance because they were laughing at a coyote that was trying to join the dance. Zuni mothers place an Owl feather next to a baby to help it sleep.
