Dewo Ruci

The story of Dewa Ruci comes from the Mahabharata and Javanese wayang tradition. It tells about Bima, one of the Pandawa brothers, who feels deep sadness after being left by his parents and searches for spiritual perfection. Guided by his teacher, Resi Drona, Bima is sent on a dangerous journey to find the sacred objects Kayu Gung Susuhing Angin (the “Great Wood, Essence of the Wind”) and Tirta Pawitra (the “Water of Purity”).

During his quest, Bima faces many obstacles and inner struggles. Finally, he meets Dewa Ruci, a tiny divine being who is actually his true self in divine form. Dewa Ruci invites Bima to enter his small body, where Bima experiences the vastness of the universe and gains ultimate knowledge—realizing the unity between the self and the cosmos.

Through this encounter, Bima attains spiritual enlightenment and perfection, understanding that true strength and wisdom come from within, not from the material world.
