 Sering kali kita lupa bahwa bumi yang kita tempati ini selalu diperhatikan dan dijaga oleh kekuatan yang jauh lebih besar dari segala apapun yang pernah kita bayangkan.

Lebih parah lagi, kitapun lupa berterima kasih atas kasihNya karena telah menjaga bumi dan segala isinya, sehingga kadang sang penjagapun perlu mengingatkan kita atas keberadaanNya....

Rangda

Rangda is important in Balinese culture, and performances depicting her struggles with Barong or with Airlangga in that tale are popular tourist attractions as well as tradition. She is depicted as a mostly nude old woman, with long and unkempt hair, pendulous breasts, and claws. Her face is traditionally a horrifying fanged and goggle-eyed mask, with a long, protruding tongue.

History

Bali is a Hindu island, and it is suggested that Rangda may also be closely associated with Durga.^[1] She has also been identified with the Hindu mother warrior goddess, and Kali, the black mother goddess of destruction, transformation and protection in Hinduism.

While Rangda is seen as fearsome and by many as the personification of evil, she is also nevertheless considered a protective force in certain parts of Bali, much like Kali is seen as a benevolent mother goddess in the Indian states of West Bengal, Assam and Kerala. The colors associated with her — white, black and red — are identical with those associated with Kali. Her iconography is similar to that of both Kali and Chamunda, who are closely related.

Other interpretations claim that Rangda may be derived from the 11th century Javan queen Mahendradatta who was exiled by the king, Dharmodayana, for allegedly practising witchcraft. The tale surrounding this is that she proceeded to take her revenge by killing off half the kingdom, which by then belonged to her and Dharmodayana's son Erlangga, with plague before being overcome by a holy man. The name Rangda means "widow".      (source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rangda)
