Although the assistance provided may not have been extensive, the hopes and prayers of HMJ KAMASTAWA were always present in every aspect of the "Javanese Literature Shares" and "Javanese Literature Teaches" work program.

Nalika sepisan ketemu karo sliramu

Tak sawang esem lan gemuyumu

Sing nambahi kangen sedina ora ketemu

Datan sakedhep yen nyawang netramu

            Tak gandheng tanganmu

            Nyawang ilining banyu

            Tak ungkapake rasaku

            Rasa tresna marang sliramu

Sineksen endahe lampu tengah kutha

Sliramu kandha yen bakal tresna

Nalika wayah wengi sing ngancani ngucap janji

Mendhung ing mega uga melu hanyekseni

            Duh pepujaning ati

            Amung sliramu sing tansah tak anti

            Rina lan wengi

            Tan bisa merem senadyan wus nyandhak madya ratri

Ing sawijining dina, Sinta Dewi, Mbakyu ku sing paling ayu dhewe, ngajak aku menyang daleme Budhe Rini kanggo nyuwun ajar matematika. Mbak Sinta pancen lare sing pinter, dheweke mesthi pikantuk biji sing apik. Saiki Mbak Sinta wis paring yuswa 18 taun. Dheweke sekolah ing SMA 1 Mlati.

          “Tika, ayo melu mbak menyang daleme Budhe Rini.” dhawuhe Mbak Sinta.

          “Mangga Mbak Sin, aku ndherek Mbak Sinta. Nanging, ana apa Mbak kok kesah daleme Budhe?” pitakonku.

          “Mbak kepingin nyuwun warah saka Budhe Rini, amarga biji matematika Mbak wingi mudhun.” wangsulane Mbak Sinta.

          “Nggih Mbak, mangga, aku ndherek Mbak Sinta wae.” clathuku.

          “Aja lali gawe jaket ya Tik, amarga awakedhewe bakal bali bengi. Mbak ya uwis matur marang Bapa karo Ibu yen awakedhewe menyang daleme Budhe Rini.”

          “Siap Mbak Sinta.”

          Dadi adhine Mbak Sinta pancen nyenengake. Dheweke apikan, pangerten marang adhine, lan luhur budine. Ananging, kadhang aku mesakake marang slirane. Saben dina kudu sinau lan ajar bab kang durung bisa dimangerteni supaya ora didukani bapa lan ibu, lan bisa maringi tuladha sing apik marang adhine. Dadi Mbak Sinta pancen ora gampang, ananging dheweke bisa ngadhepi sakabehing prakara.

          Aku lan Mbak Sinta pancen cedhak saka cilik amarga ibu lan bapa nyambut dadi dosen ing Universitas Gadjah Mada, saengga wekdal sing diduweni bapa lan ibu ing omah mung wanci bengi lan nalika prei. Masiya ing omah mung wanci bengi lan nalika prei, ananging bapa lan ibu saestu tresna marang aku lan Mbak Sinta. Apa wae sing dibutuhake putrane mesthi disedyakake. Nanging bapa lan ibu duweni pangajab kanggo putrane. Apa wae sing uwis diparingake kuwi ya kanggo paring semangat ing laku ngangsu kaweruh. Aja nganti kabeh sing wis diparingi malah ndadekake lena ing laku.

          Nalika teka ing daleme Budhe Rini, Mbak Sinta sinau kanthi setiti. Ing kono aku ya ora mung meneng wae, ananging uga melu ngangsu kaweruh.

          “Assalamualaikum Budhe Rini, kula Sinta lan Tika, Budhe.” Mbak Sinta uluk salam nalika teka.

          “Waalaikumsalam Ndhuk, ayo mlebu rene.” Budhe Rini ngutus aku lan Mbak Sinta mlebu daleme Budhe.

          “Inggih Budhe.”

          “Kok dingaren ora karo Bapa lan Ibumu, durung pada bali apa kepiye?” pandangone Budhe Rini.

          “Inggih Budhe, Bapa lan Ibu dereng kondur, saengga kula kaliyan Dhik Tika sowan piyambak.” wangsulane Mbak Sinta.

          “Woalah mangkono ta, yawis dimimik dhisik kuwi es sing wis dak siapake, enak lho kuwi, Budhe dhewe sing gawe.” ngendikane Budhe Rini.

          “Inggih Budhe, kula mimik nggih.” celathuku.

          “Iya wis ta, yen kurang dak gawekake maneh.”

          Sawise mimik es sing wis digawekake Budhe Rini, Mbak Sinta nyuwun ajar bab matematika sing durung bisa dimangerteni dening Mbak Sinta. Aku uga melu sinau lan ajar bab matematika. Budhe Rini pancen wasis bab matematika, amarga dheweke lulusan S3 matematika.

          “Budhe, badhe nyuwun pirsa, menika kok saged pikantuk asil sekawanlikur kados pundi nggih Budhe?” Mbak Sinta tangklet marang Budhe Rini.

          “Sik-sik, dak delenge soale ya Ndhuk… Oalah, ngene lho iki, kene Budhe nyuwun kertas sing isih durung ana isine.”

          “Mangga Budhe kertasipun.” wangsulane Mbak Sinta.

……

          “Ngono Ndhuk cara mangsuli soale kaya ngono. Saiki coba dijajal soal sing padha ya.” ngendikane Budhe Rini marang Mbak Sinta.

          “Inggih Budhe, siap.”

          “Budhe, kula inggih badhe nyuwun ajar bab matematika menika, kula mboten saged nggarap lho Budhe.” celathuku marang Budhe Rini.

          “Kene-kene Ndhuk cah ayu, kaya apa ta angele kok ponakane Budhe iki ora bisa mangsuli?”

          “Woalah, iki carane kaya ngene lho Ndhuk, digatekake yaa.”

……

          “Woalah makaten Budhe, kok gampil nggih hehehe.”

          “Lha iya ta, Tika mung kurang setiti wae nalika ngerjakake. Mula kudu luwih setiti ya. Wis kono dijajal soal sing liyane.”

          “Inggih siap Budhe.” celathuku.

          Sawise ngangsu kaweruh menyang Budhe Rini, aku lan Mbak Sinta pamit arep mantuk amarga ya uwis bengi.

          “Budhe, kula kaliyan Dhik Tika pamit wangsul nggih, benjing kula kaliyan Dhik Tika sowan daleme Budhe malih.” Mbak Sinta pamit marang Budhe Rini.

          “Iya Ndhuk, cah ayu ayu. Ati-ati ya yen bali. Aja lali ngajak bapa lan ibumu ya yen arep rene. Budhe uga titip salam kanggo bapa lan ibumu ya.”

          “Inggi Budhe, siap. Pamit rumiyin nggih Budhe. Assalamualaikum.”

          “Waalaikumsalam Ndhuk.”

          Aku lan Mbak Sinta gegojegan ing sadawane dalan, ananging ana salah sawijining tuladha sing agawe aku trenyuh.

          “Mbak Sinta dhek mau maeme akeh apa ora?”

          “Ora Tik, Mbak Sinta mung maem saithik, amarga masakane Budhe Rini pedhes hehe.”

          “Aku ya iya e Mbak, Tika kepingin tuku ayam kentaki ing cedhak omahe awake dhewe, Mbak Sinta kersa ora?” pitakonku.

          “Wah ayo wae Tik. Sarujuk Aku.”

          “Yeay, mangga Mbak.”

          “Woiya Dhik, Mbak Sinta duwe pesen kanggo Tika.”

          “Apa Mbak?”

          “Saka Mbak Sinta, Tika kan ngerti yen saya suwe lan saya dhuwur olehe ngangsu kaweruh kuwi saya angel lakune. Mbak Sinta pesen marang Tika, kudu tetep bisa lumaku ing dalan sing bener, aja nganti gawe duka bapa lan ibu. Tika kudu bisa dadi lilin putih ing satengahing pawongan akeh.”

          “Lilin putih? Tika ora ngerti maksud ngendikane Mbak Sinta?”

          “Maksude lilin putih kuwi kaya ngene lho Tik, awake dhewe kudu bisa dadi pawongan sing bisa migunani kanggo liyan. Kapinteran sing kok duweni kuwi kudu bisa migunani uga kanggo awakmu utawa kanggo liyan. Aja dadi bocah pinter sing kuminter.”

          “Terus lilin putih kuwi kepiye Mbak?”

          “Maksude mangkene, awake dhewe kudu bisa dadi lilin putih sing migunani, masiya cilik, dheweke bisa madhangi panggonan sing peteng. Wis ngerti saiki?”

          “Woalah nggih Mbak Sinta, Tika ngerti apa maksud ngendikane Mbak Sinta. Yen Mbak Sinta kersa, Tika nyuwun Mbak Sinta terus paring piwulang ya yen Tika rumangsa kangelan utawa Tika ana salah.”

          “Iya Dhik, Mbak Sinta kan tresna marang Tika. Mbak Sinta bakal terus ngelingake Tika yen Tika salah lan bakal ngancani Tika yen Tika butuh Mbak Sinta.”

          “Matur nuwun Mbak Sinta.”

          Kaya sing uwis dak critakake, Mbak Sinta pancen uwong sing apikan lan tresna marang adhine. Mula kuwi, ora mokal yen akeh uwong seneng marang budi luhur sing diduweni Mbak Sinta. Saka Mbak Sinta, aku nyinau akeh bab ing laku salaku.

Sajatine ngudi ngelmu

Sapa wae bisa disinau

Trapsilaning tata krama nora lali

Jaya kang kudu kagayuh

Wasana mrih karahayon

Cagaking gesang puniku

Kraos suka syukur mring Hyang Luhur

Manggih ayem tentrem sajroning panggalih 

Gampil nyirnaaken bendu

Lara-lapa mesthi kawon

Singaraja - The 9th Sarasehan Nusantara IMBASADI, held at Ganesha University of Education Singaraja, Bali, from May 12th to May 15th, 2022, has been held. The event, which carried the theme "Tresnaning Budaya, Hitaning Bhuwana: Cultural Romance towards World Harmony," spanned three days and concluded with the selection of Putra and Putri Imbasadi 2022 and an Awarding Night on May 14th.

The 9th Sarasehan Nusantara IMBASADI featured various competitions, including the National Scientific Paper Competition, Nusantara Typography Competition, Regional Pop Song Competition, Nusantara TikTok Contest, Cinematography Video Competition, and the Selection of Putra Putri Imbasadi 2022.

Delegates from the Javanese Literature Program at Gadjah Mada University participated in these activities by taking part in all the competitions. UGM's delegation was represented by Zainal Fanani (class of 2019) as the delegation leader, along with Dewi Lestari (class of 2019), Vighna Rivattyannur Hernawan (class of 2020), Nurma Aisyah (class of 2021), Adjit Royan Mustafa Ganda Sukma (class of 2021), Nanda Nursa Alya (class of 2021), and Idharul Huda (class of 2021). The first five mentioned attended the event in Bali in person, while the latter two participated virtually through Zoom Meetings, as the 9th Sarasehan Nusantara was conducted in a hybrid manner.

From these competitions, the UGM delegation achieved the following awards:

1. 2nd Place in the National Scientific Paper Competition (Vighna Rivattyannur Hernawan as the team leader, with two members: Nurma Aisyah and Idharul Huda).
2. 2nd Place in the Regional Pop Song Cover Competition (Vighna Rivattyannur Hernawan).
3. Runner-up 2 in the Putri IMBASADI 2022 Selection (Nurma Aisyah)

The winning National Scientific Paper Competition, titled "Tabloid Carakita: Javanese Script across Languages as an Implementation of Cultural Harmony (A Sociolinguistic Study)," focused on Tabloid Carakita as a material object that can contribute to the preservation of Javanese script in the millennial era. It leveraged the fact that people commonly speak or use Indonesian, Javanese, and English in their daily lives.

Meanwhile, the 2nd Place Regional Pop Song Cover comprised a medley of two songs: "Jenang Gula" and "Gethuk." These songs were chosen because they contain elements of Javanese culture.  Jenang Gula song contains wangsalan, a kind of Javanese riddle. While the Gethuk song contains Javanese rhymes commonly known as parikan.

The final championship achieved was the Runner-up 2 in the Putri IMBASADI category. The selection process was rigorous, including deep interviews and staged eliminations from the top 5 to the top 3. Nurma Aisyah partnered with Gus Bija from I Gusti Bagus Sugriwa State Hindu University, both entrusted with the title of Runner-up 2.

According to the representative IMBASADI students, participating in IMBASADI provided them with valuable experiences and relationships. They expressed their gratitude to all parties who continuously supported them. IMBASADI stands as evidence that it serves as a platform for competitions and successes for students of regional languages and literature.

The name "Cakra Manggala" has been chosen as the cabinet name by the daily executive board of the Family of Javanese Literature Students (KAMASTAWA) for the period 2022/2023. The name "Cakra Manggala" is derived from "cakra," symbolizing a round-toothed weapon. From "cakra," the daily executive board holds high hopes that the Cakra Manggala cabinet will work diligently and firmly in their respective fields. Additionally, "cakra" can also be interpreted as precision or meticulousness. Through this analogy, the Cakra Manggala cabinet is expected to work with utmost diligence.

On the other hand, "manggala" is inspired by the headgear worn by Sultan Agung. "Manggala" symbolizes blessings and leadership, thereby making this cabinet a symbol of continuous blessings and good fortune and a driving force for Javanese Literature students as a whole. Therefore, with the name "Cakra Manggala," the daily executive board hopes that the Cakra Manggala cabinet will work together with precision and optimal coordination, both in their respective fields and as a whole, while always being filled with blessings and good fortune in every process they undergo.

In this new management, the members of the Cakra Manggala cabinet are active undergraduate students in their second and third years of study. The cabinet consists of 46 members, with one person as the president, one vice chairman, two treasurers, two secretaries, five members in the Human Resources Development division, six members in the Public Relations and Organization division, six members in the Social Community division, four members in the Media and Information division, five members in the Scientific division, five members in the Entrepreneurship and Logistics division, and nine members in the Interest and Talent division.

Through various planned programs and guidance from Mr. Imam Prakoso as the advisor, the daily executive board of KAMASTAWA, in the Cakra Manggala cabinet, aspires to uphold the reputation of Javanese Literature and contribute optimally to the Javanese Literature study program. Moreover, the success of all the planned programs is also dependent on the support of all Javanese Literature students. Thus, the new leadership aims for optimal cooperation so that both the executives and non-executive members can work together to maintain the name of Javanese Literature.

Yogyakarta (January 3, 2022) - For a student, achieving remarkable accomplishments is undoubtedly a dream to be realized, especially on a national or even international scale. However, opportunities to achieve such feats may seem challenging at times, be it due to competition or other circumstances.

This is where the story of Taruna Dharma Jati, a student from the Javanese Literature Program at Universitas Gadjah Mada, brings both surprising and joyful news. In 2021, Taruna, along with his team, mentored by Zakariya Pamuji Aminullah, had the opportunity to participate in the Student Creativity Week (Pekan Kreativitas Mahasiswa - PKM) organized by DIKTI. (Direktorat Jenderal Pendidikan Tinggi, Riset, dan Teknologi).

His journey began with a fascination for the world of PKM. The initial spark was ignited when he witnessed the success of his senior, Syahmu Hidayat, a 2017 Javanese Literature student who won gold in Pimnas, with the theme raised according to the knowledge explored in the Javanese Literature study program. This catalyzed for him to delve deeper into the realm of PKM. As he delved into PKM, based on existing phenomena, Taruna understood that PKM provided a platform for various fields of study, including Javanese Literature.

The interest in participating in PKM did not arise solely from observing phenomena. It was the opportunity provided to him by a Javanese Literature lecturer, Zakariya Pamuji Aminullah, often addressed as Mas Zaki, that enabled him to further progress. Moreover, this opportunity led him to become the leader of the team. Achieving an accolade required a long process, involving preparation, revisions, funding, research, and various other stages that eventually led them to their final destination.

According to him, PKM is a forum and event for students to channel their highly innovative ideas in any matter, which hopefully can be useful for the wider community.

In the PKM that he and his team participated in, Taruna focused on the theme of epidemics from the perspective of Javanese literary works. For their research, they collected data from the Surakarta and Yogyakarta regions. They analyzed everything from literary and cultural perspectives to political science and law. Their hard work, dedication, and meticulous execution led them, under his leadership, to win the gold medal in the 34th Pimnas in 2021 in the poster category. He firmly believed that their efforts would not betray the results they achieved.

According to Taruna, the greatest challenge in the process was working with a diverse team due to different backgrounds. Additionally, the chosen subject matter was relatively weighty, requiring the data collected to be condensed and organized meticulously following the established writing guidelines. Precise time management was also crucial in composing the proposal.

Despite facing numerous challenges, he and his team overcame them. Their approach to overcoming challenges was through responsive communication, convincing each other that PKM was a shared responsibility. In terms of condensing the material, they managed it by processing words and putting in extra thought.

Not only do they get tired, but they also gain valuable experience, both academically and non-academically. They acquired new knowledge, especially in their research field, and learned from the teachings of relevant resource persons.

For new students eager to participate in PKM, he advises them not to hesitate, as PKM provides an excellent platform to channel their best "crazy" ideas and elevate the reputation of Javanese Literature.

"Do not be afraid to start, do not feel inferior, because Javanese Literature students actually have a lot of potential that must be developed and optimized, one of which is through this PKM activity" (Taruna, 2022).
