Rainy season un-ending


Whether the person who dreamed of when the rain came?

In Indonesia that have enough rainfall, I think have sensation distinctive sense of meaning when the rain came. Rain can have any meaning blessing, signs, disaster, or anything about the season. Indonesia has a lot of self belief about the rain and have a way to thanking to the gods. Many traditional ceremony be held in every place island, mountain, the belief place any where.

In Yogyakarta, as Mataram Kingdom has Becekan ceremony, also called Memetri Kali, which means maintaining or improving the river environment, the form asks for the rain ceremony during the dry season which lasts in Kalurahan Kepuharjo, Cangkringan District, Sleman regency. River water is very important for the local people for agricultural purposes. Perhaps after the ceremony is usually held immediately rain down into the ground so that tarnish so ago called becekan. Becekan defined as offering berujud goat meat cooked in a curry.

In the context of the age and climate that can not be predicted, the rains become big problems. Of course this is a big disaster when the rain came. we equally aware that logging has occurred in the wild and damage the environment.

Then how do we face the rain?
