The Story of Garuda Wisnu Kencana
Share3Here is the story of Garuda Wisnu Kencana which follow the birth and deeds of the mythical bird Garuda as quoted from Wikipedia. You can find this story carved into stone relief, placed in GWK Street Theater.

The story of Garuda’s birth and deeds is told in the first book of the great epic Mahabharata. According to the epic, when Garuda first burst forth from his egg, he appeared as a raging inferno equal to the cosmic conflagration that consumes the world at the end of every age. Frightened, the gods begged him for mercy. Garuda, hearing their plea, reduced himself in size and energy.

Garuda’s father was the creator-rishi Kasyapa. His mother was Vinata, whose sister was Kadru, the mother of serpents. One day, Vinata entered into and lost a foolish bet, as a result of which she became enslaved to her sister.

Mahabharata mentions about a bet between sisters and wives of Kashyapa, Vinata and Kadru, about the colour of Uchchaihshravas‘s tail. While Vinata, the mother of Garuda and Aruna, said it was white, Kadru said it was black. The loser would have to serve as a servant of the winner. Kadru told her sons, Naga (“serpent”), to cover the tail of the horse and thus make it appear as black in colour and thus, Kadru won.

Resolving to release his mother from this state of bondage, Garuda approached the serpents and asked them what it would take to purchase her freedom. Their reply was that Garuda would have to bring them the elixir of immortality, also called amrita. It was a tall order. The amrita at that time found itself in the possession of the gods, who guarded it jealously, since it was the source of their immortality. They had ringed the elixir with a massive fire that covered the sky. They had blocked the way to the elixir with a fierce mechanical contraption of sharp rotating blades. And finally, they had stationed two gigantic poisonous snakes next to the elixir as deadly guardians.

Undaunted, Garuda hastened toward the abode of the gods intent on robbing them of their treasure. Knowing of his design, the gods met him in full battle-array. Garuda, however, defeated the entire host and scattered them in all directions. Taking the water of many rivers into his mouth, he extinguished the protective fire the gods had thrown up. Reducing his size, he crept past the rotating blades of their murderous machine. And finally, he mangled the two gigantic serpents they had posted as guards. Taking the elixir into his mouth without swallowing it, he launched again into the air and headed toward the eagerly waiting serpents.

En route, he encountered Vishnu. Rather than fight, the two exchanged promises. Vishnu promised Garuda the gift of immortality even without drinking from the elixir, and Garuda promised to become Vishnu’s mount.

Flying onward, he met Indra the god of the sky. Another exchange of promises occurred. Garuda promised that once he had delivered the elixir, thus fulfilling the request of the serpents, he would make it possible for Indra to regain possession of the elixir and to take it back to the gods. Indra in turn promised Garuda the serpents as food.

At long last, Garuda alighted in front of the waiting serpents. Placing the elixir on the grass, and thereby liberating his mother Vinata from her servitude, he urged the serpents to perform their religious ablutions before consuming it. As they hurried off to do so, Indra swooped in to make off with the elixir.

From that day onward, Garuda was the ally of the gods and the trusty mount of Vishnu, as well as the implacable enemy of snakes, upon whom he preyed at every opportunity.

Suwung Mangrove Center covers and therefore protects part of the island’s 1,373 hectares of mangrove forests.

Sasmitohadi, head of the Mangrove Center, said that the Suwung mangrove forest is in relatively good condition as compared to the other mangrove forest areas on the island which have been subject to damage and deterioration.

Around 1,000 hectares of mangrove forests in Bali are unfortunately in critical condition, he said.

The Suwung Center maintains 1.9 kilometers of wooden walkways giving access to the mangrove forest, along which visitors can enjoy the green mangrove plants, along with the animals and birds, with all their bird songs and bird calls, that frequent this habitat.

“We will renovate some parts of the walkways to enable visitors to walk into the inner parts of the forest,” he said.

Visitors are also able to see the beauty of the forest from two 10.5 meter-high watching towers — designated the Little Egret Tower and the Sun Bird Tower, named after birds to be found in the area.

Bird lovers would be pampered with provision of a Bird Watching Hide center, a perfect place from which to watch a large variety of bird species. A floating deck with two jetskis is also available for the more adventurous environmental tourists.

Denpasar Tourist office has included the Mangrove Center as one of the main attractions its Denpasar Sightseeing Tour package.

Eddie, a student from SMPN2 Ubud in Gianyar, was very excited when visiting the Center.

“I can learn so many things about mangrove forest and its inhabitants. I could do science reports on mangroves,” said Eddy.

He conducted library research at the Center’s exhibition and library room and found a lot of information on mangroves.

The Mangrove Center is open from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Local visitors will only have to pay Rp 5,000 to enter the site, while foreigners pay
Rp 50,000.

I Wayan Pasek, the ticket seller, said that around 30 to 50 people visit the center every day. “But, during school holidays, people will crowd into the place.”

Made Oka, a Denpasar resident, felt the benefit of visiting the site.

“This is a very beautiful, unpolluted place for doing outdoor activities-something that we cannot find in the city center,” Oka said.
