Malesung Trust
This is another belief story from the continuation of the story kerbelian watu pinawetengan which is in my area in depth and very well organized but looking at the difference with the work of the initial belief story.
The contents of this article are covered in local or land languages, I emphasize this in this article so that it can be seen that this is true based on the original beliefs of my area.
Until modern times, it turns out that there are still many people who have lived in my area for a long time or the natives are still involved with the beliefs of the past because until now there are still thousands of people living in my area.
Minahasa community (my area) who carry out rituals Malesung rite even though administratively their residents have ID cards of other religions.
Thing this is in accordance with the mandate of Dotu Lumimuut so that his descendants always keep the teachings Kanaraman Malesung appears in the prayer that spoken at the time of deliberation in stone Pinabetengan
"This Linga-lingan Empung Wangko in wetengan nai, in posan wo nuwu wo awuhan wiya se suru paluimpung nai. Because of this Empung Wangko the mamali paapoon paamungan wo raragesan ne suru paluimpung rise. Witu root inaniya wo mangeh wo karengan yes pariyo-riyowan wo pamuri-murian Nu, wehan Nu kamang wia rondo-rondoran erah, wo ni give up thanks to makailek waya-waya, wo makapaluimpung warenei in tuamah wo wulauan in mbewene wo niserah impaayomu wana sambauan in langi wana ririmpuruan in langi. Yah esa-rua-telu-opat-lima-enem-pitu-walu- siouw eh Wailan pakatuan wo pakalawiren.”
Prayer it means "Look and hear (be You are witness) of the division of faith/ beliefs, languages and livelihoods our descendants, that you also the Great God will be our God forever. Then you will be before and behind our descendants, so that they are blessed in the world as well to get and get a boy brave and beautiful woman. Bring them to your truth up to the sky. Lord bless them so that they maylong life and old age.”.
Basically Malesung's belief has several purposes, namely to regulate harmonious relationship between humans and Almighty God, rules the relationship which is in harmony between human beings, regulates harmonious relationship between humans and the natural surroundings, fostering good behavior virtuous, orderly behavior, formation mental and spiritual, provide peace physically and mentally, as well as creating perfection of life in this world and in the hereafter.
There are noble teachings passed down by the ancestors of Malesung who appear on the expression tumou tou which means live as people live.
That matter stated in the slogan of Sulawesi ProvinceNorth is Si Tou Timou Tumou Tou. By literally means people who live in effect like humans.
This shows that the duty of every Minahasa person is to try your best to be able help others so that they can live physically and spiritually. In other words, the Minahasans must be able to be a blessing to other people.
The basis of Malesung's belief is one of them ancestral mandate known as The first mandate of Pinabentengan is "Sapake si" kayoba'ang anio' tana' ta imbaya. Breast milk makasa, sa me'em si ma'api, wetengen eng kayoba'ang. Wetengan e patu'usan. Maper e waraney. Tumani' e kumeter. Aka'd se tu'us tumou wo tumou tow."
The meaning of the mandate is Whatever the earth or this world is ours all. One day ask for a good sign and when it has been given, divide the land/earth/this world, O parents, be happy.
Para waraney/protector of the country must penetrate jhnew frontiers. And people who strong and strong build a settlement.
Until our descendants live and behave as humans (turn on each other).
