BOROBUDUR TEMPLE

The Borobudur Temple is considered as one of the seven wonders of the world. This

temple is located at Borobudur District, South of Magelang, Central Java.

The expression of experts who had been studying Borobudur Temple varied someway.

Bernet Kempers' expression was: Borobudur is Borobudur, meaning that Borobudur Temple is

very unique in her own way. Nieuwenkamp (an artist) imaginated Borobudur as a big lotus

flower bud ready to bloom which was floating on a lake. Nieuwenkamps imagination was

supported by N. Rangkuti (1987) that from the air, the Borobudur Temple looks floating. From

the geological studies, experts were able to prove that Borobudur area was one time a big lake.

Most of the villages around Borobudur Temple were at the same altitude, 235 meters above the

sea-level. The same altitude included the Pawon and Mendut temples. Thus the area under 235

meter altitude was below the lake water level.

Based on the inscription dated 842 AD, Casparis suggested that Borobudur was one time

a place for praying. The inscription stated a phrase such as: Kawulan i Bhumi Sambhara.

Kawulan means the origin of holiness, bhumi sambhara is a name of a place in Borobudur.

Paul Mus stated that Borobudur Temple had the structure of stupa (conical form) with double

expression. As a whole, the Borobudur Temple was an open-flat stupa, but on the other hand, the

temple expressed the idea of a closed world. The latter expression could be felt when one is

already inside the temple. Whenever person is inside the temple, his or her view will be limited

to high walls full on relieves, the verandah is always squared in such a way that one could not

see other parts of the temple, even in a same floor. The same feeling happened if one stood on

arupadhatu round platform, he or she will have a wider view only on that level, but are not able

to see the lower level nor the upper level like the one on rupadhatu and kamandhatu. It could be

said that Borobudur is a symbol of cosmic mountain covered by the sky roof, a specific world

that could be reached through isolated alleys as stages. The closed structural design of the temple

expressed the concept of a closed world, not just a technical reasons as had been suggested by

other experts ( Daud AT, 1987)

Borobudur was built by Sanmaratungga in the 8th century, and belongs to BuddhaMahayana. Borobudur was revealed by Sir Thomas Stanford Raffles in 1814. The temple was

found in ruined condition and was buried.

The overall height was 42 meters, but was only 34.5 meters after restoration, and had the

dimension of 123 x 123 meters (15,129 square meters). There were 10 floors. The first floor up

to the sixth floor was square form, the seventh to the tenth floor were round form.

Borobudur is facing to the East with a total of 1460 panels (2 meters wide each). Totalsize of the temple walls was 2500 square meters, full of relief. The total number of panels with

relief was 1212. According to investigations, the total number of Buddha statue was 504
