MANIK ANGKERAN



A long time ago, lived a rich man named Begawan Sidi Mantra. He was very famous for his kindness and also for his supernatural power. He had a son named Manik Angkeran who liked to gamble. Because of Manik Angkeran’s bad habit, his father soon bankrupt. Begawan Sidi Mantra had spent all of his money to pay his son‘s debts. But, Manik Angkeran still liked to gamble and he still owed some people a lot of money.

Begawan Sidi Mantra wanted to help his son to pay the remaining debts. He meditated for days, and finally he got a clue from the gods to go to Agung Mountain. He went to the mountain. There, he met with a dragon named Naga Besukih. It is said that Naga Besukih could provide gold and jewelries to those who could say a certain prayer and ring the sacred bell. Fortunately, Begawan Sidi Mantra had the bell, and he also knew the prayer from his meditation. “My name is Sidi Mantra. I have a problem. My son likes to gamble. I’ve spent all of my money to pay his debts, but it’s still not enough. I came here to ask for your help,” explained Begawan Sidi Mantra after he met with Naga Besukih. “I’ll help you, but you have to advise your son so he would not gamble again,” said Naga Besukih. The dragon then shakes his body and cause some of his scales fall of. Magically, the scales turn into gold and diamonds.

Begawan Sidi Mantra took the gold and diamonds and return home. He paid all the remaining debt and advised his son about his gambling habit. Manik Angkeran promised to stop gambling, but soon he broke the promise. Bagawan Sidi Mantra had to go to the dragon for help once again. “What brought you here again?” asked Naga Besukih. “I’m very sorry, Naga Besukih. My son had disappointed me; he broke his promise to me. I beg for your help once again,” said Begawan Sidi Mantra to the dragon. “I’ll help you, but this is the last time,” said Naga Besukih.

Begawan Sidi Mantra once again paid Manik Angkeran’s debts and advised him not to gamble again. Manik Angkeran promised and soon he broke his promise again. This time, Begawan Sidi Mantra didn’t want to help him anymore. He was too ashamed to meet with the dragon.

Manik Angkeran knew that his father got the jewelries from the dragon. So, he stole his father’s sacred bell and went to Agung Mountain. After he arrived, Manik Angkeran rang the bell. Naga Besukih heard the bell but there’s no prayer. He decided to see who was calling him. “Hey, Manik Angkeran. What are you doing here with your father’s bell? Did you steal it?” asked Naga Besukih angrily when he saw Manik Angkeran. “Please help me, Naga Besukih. I really need the money to pay my debts. Those people would kill me if I don’t pay them in time. Please, I beg for your mercy,” said Manik Angkeran to the dragon. “Okay, I’ll help you. But this is the last time, and you have to promise to stop gambling,” Naga Besukih then give him the jewelries.

But suddenly, Manik Angkeran had a bad idea. He wanted to kill the dragon and take all the jewelries. So he drew his keris and attacked Naga Besukih. He managed to cut the dragon’s tail, but he was no match for Naga Besukih. With his great power, Naga Besukih burned Manik Angkeran and killed him instantly.

In his home, Begawan Sidi Mantra couldn’t find his sacred bell. He knew that his son had stolen it, so he went to Agung Mountain. He was so sad when he found out what happened in the mountain. “I’m very sorry, Naga Besukih. But he was my only son. I beg you, please bring him back to life,” Begawan Sidi Mantra begged the dragon for mercy. Naga Besukih agreed with one condition, Manik Angkeran had to stay at Agung Mountain. Naga Besukih said some prayer and after few moments, Manik Angkeran lived again. Begawan Sidi Mantra then used a stick to make a big line between them on the ground. From the line, water flowed. Soon it became a river. Finally it became a strait. It separated Java and Bali. People then named the strait as Bali Strait.

Dahulu kala, hidup seorang kaya bernama Begawan Sidi Mantra. Dia sangat terkenal karena kebaikannya dan juga untuk kekuatan supranatural. Dia memiliki seorang putra bernama Manik Angkeran yang suka berjudi. Karena kebiasaan buruk Manik Angkeran, ayahnya segera bangkrut. Begawan Sidi Mantra telah menghabiskan semua uangnya untuk membayar utang anaknya. Tapi, Manik Angkeran masih suka berjudi dan ia masih berhutang beberapa orang banyak uang.

Begawan Sidi Mantra ingin membantu anaknya untuk membayar utang yang tersisa. Dia bermeditasi selama hari, dan akhirnya ia mendapat petunjuk dari para dewa untuk pergi ke Gunung Agung. Dia pergi ke gunung. Di sana, ia bertemu dengan seekor naga bernama Naga Besukih. Hal ini mengatakan bahwa Naga Besukih bisa memberikan emas dan perhiasan kepada mereka yang bisa mengucapkan doa tertentu dan cincin lonceng suci. Untungnya, Begawan Sidi Mantra memiliki bel, dan ia juga tahu doa dari meditasinya. "Nama saya Sidi Mantra. Saya punya masalah. Anak saya suka berjudi. Saya telah menghabiskan semua uang saya untuk membayar utang-utangnya, tapi masih tidak cukup. Saya datang ke sini untuk meminta bantuan Anda, "jelas Begawan Sidi Mantra setelah ia bertemu dengan Naga Besukih. "Aku akan membantu Anda, tetapi Anda harus memberitahu anak Anda sehingga dia tidak akan berjudi lagi," kata Naga Besukih. Sang naga kemudian getar tubuhnya dan menyebabkan beberapa sisik nya jatuh. Ajaib, timbangan berubah menjadi emas dan berlian.

Begawan Sidi Mantra mengambil emas dan berlian dan pulang ke rumah. Ia membayar semua hutang yang tersisa dan disarankan anaknya tentang kebiasaan judinya. Manik Angkeran berjanji untuk menghentikan perjudian, tapi segera ia memecahkan janji. Bagawan Sidi Mantra harus pergi ke naga bantuan sekali lagi. "Apa yang membawamu ke sini lagi?" Tanya Naga Besukih. "Saya sangat menyesal, Naga Besukih. Anak saya telah mengecewakan aku, ia melanggar janjinya kepada saya. Saya mohon bantuan Anda sekali lagi, "kata Begawan Sidi Mantra untuk naga. "Aku akan membantu Anda, tapi ini adalah waktu terakhir," kata Naga Besukih.

Begawan Sidi Mantra sekali lagi membayar hutang Manik Angkeran dan menasihatinya untuk tidak berjudi lagi. Manik Angkeran berjanji dan segera ia melanggar janjinya lagi. Kali ini, Begawan Sidi Mantra tidak ingin membantunya lagi. Dia terlalu malu untuk bertemu dengan sang naga.

Manik Angkeran tahu bahwa ayahnya mendapat perhiasan dari naga. Jadi, dia mencuri bel suci ayahnya dan pergi ke Gunung Agung. Setelah ia tiba, Manik Angkeran membunyikan bel. Naga Besukih mendengar bel tapi ada doa ada. Dia memutuskan untuk melihat siapa yang memanggilnya. "Hei, Manik Angkeran. Apa yang Anda lakukan di sini dengan bel ayahmu? Apakah Anda mencurinya? "Tanya Naga Besukih marah ketika melihat Manik Angkeran. "Tolong bantu saya, Naga Besukih. Saya benar-benar membutuhkan uang untuk membayar utang saya. Orang-orang akan membunuh saya jika saya tidak membayar mereka pada waktunya. Tolong, saya mohon belas kasihan Anda, "kata Manik Angkeran ke naga. "Oke, aku akan membantumu. Tapi ini adalah terakhir kalinya, dan Anda harus berjanji untuk menghentikan perjudian, "Naga Besukih kemudian memberinya perhiasan.

Tapi tiba-tiba, Manik Angkeran memiliki ide yang buruk. Dia ingin membunuh naga dan mengambil semua perhiasan. Jadi dia menarik kerisnya dan menyerang Naga Besukih. Dia berhasil memotong ekor naga, tapi dia tidak cocok untuk Naga Besukih. Dengan kekuatan besar, Naga Besukih membakar Manik Angkeran dan membunuhnya seketika.

Di rumahnya, Begawan Sidi Mantra tidak menemukan bel sucinya. Dia tahu bahwa anaknya telah mencuri, jadi dia pergi ke Gunung Agung. Dia begitu sedih ketika dia tahu apa yang terjadi di gunung. "Saya sangat menyesal, Naga Besukih. Tapi dia anak tunggal saya. Saya mohon, bawalah dia kembali ke kehidupan, "pinta Begawan Sidi Mantra naga minta ampun. Naga Besukih setuju dengan satu syarat, Manik Angkeran harus tinggal di Gunung Agung. Naga Besukih berdoa beberapa dan setelah beberapa saat, Manik Angkeran hidup kembali. Begawan Sidi Mantra kemudian digunakan tongkat untuk membuat garis besar antara mereka di tanah. Dari baris, air mengalir. Segera itu menjadi sungai. Akhirnya itu menjadi selat. Ini dipisahkan Jawa dan Bali. Orang menamakan selat Selat Bali.
