Pendekar Batari Mahadewi: The Journey to Find Your Self
Episode 172 Let Feelings Lead Your Way
I exist because of you
You exist because of me
We are a pair of mirrors
Through your body, I can know me
Through my body you can know me
Even though we don't fully know each other
I'm not entirely me
You are not entirely you
Contents are not fully filled
Empty is not completely empty
Because the content is empty
And empty is content
Because reality is not entirely real
And the truth is not entirely true
When the eyes no longer see the light
When the mind is unable to understand
Let your feelings lead your way
How are Batari Mahadevi and Nala in the meditation room of the Thousand Mirrors of the sacred temple of the island of Ice? the two one-month world warriors had been in the meditation room for six months. The bodies of the two warriors were clad in clear ice crystals.
Batari Mahadevi and Nala had managed to open the cold energy door in their bodies so that the two could not only absorb the energy from the cold, but also create it; turning the air into ice. Thus, both of them were ready to continue their journey to the next stage, which was to absorb the main energy on the Island of Ice.
“Both of you, open your eyes.” The voice of the grandmothers who told Batari Mahadewi and Nala to finish their meditation. When the two warriors of the one-moon world opened their eyes, how shocked they were to see the familiar figure of their grandmothers; he was the first ice island man to meet the two.
“Isn't grandma the one we met in the quiet settlement back then?” tanya Batari Mahadewi.
“Truely, Dance. I was everywhere. I'm the spirit waiting for the main source of the Ice Island's energy. I know you'll make it here. And next, I will guide you to find that main source of energy. Now come follow me.” The old grandmother went inside one of the ice mirrors in the room. His body pierced in, as if that hard ice mirror was water. Batari Mahadevi and Nala followed him and both did not expect that they could also do what the grandmother did.
After the two entered the mirror, the two saw a world that was all white covered with snow. There was nothing there but snow. Even in visible space is snow, not sky. As far as the eye looks to the farthest point, what is seen is white.
“Welcome to the snowy wilderness. This is where the main energy source of the island of Ice is located.” The grandmother said.
“I still did not think that grandma was the guardian spirit of the main energy source of the Island of Ice.It is fitting that we could not feel the radiance of the energy of grandma, only a little bit of what we caught, just a little bit of what we caught, even then when grandma showed us how grandma turned snow into an ice sword.” Nala said.
“Can I ask, grandma?” ask Batari Mahadevi.
“Please.” Said the grandmother.
“Why didn't grandma stop the mess that the snow monster caused?” ask Batari Mahadevi.
“It's none of my business, Tari. I no longer have the right to interfere in what is happening at this time. I will only show the way to whoever I choose as human beings who deserve energy from the main source.” said the grandmother.
“So grandma chose us both for now?” ask Nala.
“Yes. You are capable of doing so, and you really need it to create a better life in your world.” The grandmother said.
“Then what should we do next, grandma?” ask Batari Mahadevi.
“Even if I give you the way, but you yourself will pass through it. Successful or not, you yourself determine it.” The grandmother replied, “all you have to do is feel the radiance of energy from the main source. You will never see it, but you can feel it. Of course this is not easy, because only by opening your feelings, then you will find it.” The grandmother said.
Batari mahadevi and Nala tried to digest what the grandmother had just said. Of course, what they imagined about the main energy source on the fire island was intangible sort of the main energy source on the fire island. As it turns out, what they think is far different from the reality they face today.
But hearing the grandmother's words, they finally understood, why they had to meditate for so long in the space of a thousand mirrors; to learn not to believe what they saw as the truth.
It is precisely with feelings that things will not appear as reality or illusion, good or bad, black or white. Feelings far beyond language, far beyond meaning. Feelings are the earliest thing a man has when he is born to be acquainted with the world, before he can see, before he knows language, before he knows himself, before he knows himself, or feel the need to know yourself.
“Alright, I'll leave you two here. Learn to sharpen and use your feelings to find what you are looking for.” The grandmother said, then just disappeared.
“What will we do Dance?” ask Nala.
“Entahlah. Hmm.how are you, Nala. It feels like a long time we haven't told you.” Batari Mahadevi.
“Once we open our eyes, we are instantly snapped up here by that granny. Yeah, I think we've been in that meditation room for a long time.” Nala said.
“Now our skin is similar to snowman skin if we use ice energy as the basis of our strength.” Batari Mahadewi.
“I want to see your skills after you have mastered ice science, Tari.” Nala.
“I also want to see your new form, Nala.” Batari said.
“You first.” Nala.
“No, you first.” Batari Mahadewi. Of course, with a way of speaking that makes Nala always give in and obey her request.
Nala tries to move the snow around her as she moves the earth or fire material, then lifts the snow and creates certain shapes. Nala added her energy and made the form of snow she created harden into clear ice crystals. Then the man created another new form, a snow sculpture that was exactly the same shape as Batari Mahadevi, and he hardened it into ice crystals.
Batari Mahadevi could not hide the pleasure when he saw Nala making a statue of himself, just from the tip of the foot to each strand of hair of the magical girl. He did not expect that Nala had another ability; the ability to create a work of art that looks alive and real, even if it is just a statue.
“You know, Dance.. I can open the door of cold energy in my body when I think of you.” Nala said while looking at the face of the Batari Mahadewi statue he had just created.
