::: Legend of Mount Semeru

According to the Java community trust that was written in ancient books Tantu Exhibition from the 15th century, on the ancient island of Java floating in the ocean vast, constantly wavering and shaking. The gods decided to tack the island of Java in a way to move Mount Meru in India over the island of Java.

Lord Vishnu transformed into a giant tortoise carrying mountain dipunggungnya, while Lord Brahma was transformed into a long snake wrapping his body in the mountains and body of the turtle so that the mountain can be transported safely.

Gods of the mountain was put on top of the first island they encountered, namely in the western part of Java Island. But the weight of the mountain that lead to the eastern tip of the island rose to the top. Then they move into the eastern part of Java island. When taken to the east of Mount Meru, Mount Meru, which scattered debris creates mountain ranges on the island of Java, which extends from west to east. However, when the peak of Meru was moved to the east, the island of Java is still skewed, so the gods decided to cut off part of the mountain and place it in the northwest. This fragment formed Pawitra Mountain, now known by the name of Mount Pananggungan, and the major part of Mount Meru, where dwells the god Shiva, now known as Mount Sumeru. At the time of Sang Hyang Shiva came to the island of Java millet saw many trees, so the island is called Java.

Geographical environment of the island of Java and Bali are consistent with Hindu religious symbols. In Hinduism there is the belief of Mount Meru, Mount Meru is considered as the home where dwell the gods and as a means of liaison between the earth (man) and rating. Many people of Java and Bali today still regard the mountain as the abode of the Gods, Hyang, and being fine.
