A Javanese trance dancer sits on a rock in the middle of river t-junction in which a ritual of sacrificial and cleansing the two-dimensional bamboo woven horses are held in Kulon Progo, Yogyakarta, Indonesia, January 18, 2012. Javanese believe a place where two rivers encounter have mystical power. In Javanese philosophy, there are two worlds that human should deal with; macrocosm and microcosm. Macrocosm deals with spirituality and mystery, whereas microcosm deals with reality and physic. The aim of life is to harmonize the both. Javanism is a way of living, merely like Hinduism or Buddhism. It is a thought that stresses on inner peace, balance and harmony and it contains complete tools to interpret life whether it is the Sein (Being) or the Werden (Becoming).
