Adapun personel inti diambilkan dari Yonif 506 sebanyak 935 orang,kekurangannya diambilkan dari Batalyon jajaran Kodam VII/Brawijaya. Pada tanggal 30 September 1964 Yonif 531/Raider dipindahkan pangkalannya dari kota Jember ke Malang.Pada tanggal 19 Desember 1964 Batalyon menerima tunggul "UJWALA YUDHA" yang berarti: "ujwala"<br /> melambangkan semangat yang berkobar berapi-api/keberanian setiap anggota Yonif Linud 502/Ujwala Yudha.<br />"YUDHA"<br /> Melambangkan sifat kepahlawanan sebagai pejuang kemerdekaan yang gagah perwira.<br />Pada tanggal 22 April 1969 secara tertulis dan administrasi batalyon dipidahkan dari Kodam VII/Brawijaya ker Kostrad. Pada tanggal 31 Maret 1973 nama satuan berubah dari Yonif 531/Raider manjadi "Batalyon Infanteri Lintas Udara 502/Ujwala Yudha"<br /><br />Kegiatan<br /> Kegiatan dimulai di Unit Kegiatan Mahasiswa Universitas Brawijaya Malang jam 05.30, setelah berkumpul dan melakukan absen setelah itu dilakukan upacara pengukuhan khusus untuk anggota baru yang sudah lolos BASIC Training tetapi belum dikukuhkan dan belum diambil sumpahnya sebagai anggota BASIC, acara ini selesai jam 06.30. Setelah itu acara dilanjutkan dengan acara dokumentasi di lapangan rektorat Universitas Brawijaya sambil menunggu angkutan truck milik Batalyon Infanteri Lintas Udara 502, setelah sesi dokumentasi selesai pada jam 06.55 lalu dilanjutkan dengan pemberangkatan, lalu para peserta dinaikkan ke dalam truck, setelah menunggu 10 menit lalu apra peserta diberangkatkan pada pukul 07.05.<br /> Setelah menempuh perjalanan yang cukup lama akhirnya para peserta sampai di Batalyon Infanteri Lintas Udara 502 yang berlokasi di Kecamatan Jabung Kabupaten Malang, setelah peserta memasuki lapangan tembak maka diadakan pengenalan oleh pelatih, lalu apra peserta dibimbing untuk melakukan peregangan dan pemanasan, walaupun peregagan dan pemanasan yang dilakukan kabarnya hanya 1/8 dari total gerakan sebenarnya tetapi sudah cukup untuk membuat kami berkeringat. Lapangan tembak ini terletak pada koordinat : 7°55'58"S 112°44'29"E, lapangan tembak ini bernama Lapangan Tembak 12 Jagoan, dinamakan demikian karena dahulu waktu operasi Seroja di Timor – Timur ada 12 anggota dari YONIF LINUD 512 yang bertempur dengan gagah berani.<br /> Lalu acara dilanjutkan dengan penjelasan pelatih terhadap teknik dan dasar- dasar menembak senapan api, berikut ini adalah materi yang diberikan oleh pelatih :<br /><br />A. Keamanan<br />1. Arahkan senjata ke tempat yang aman<br />Jangan arahkan senjata ke makhluk hidup dan selalu menanamkan mindset bahwa senjata kita selalu terisi dan siap tembak.<br />2. Jangan memasukkan jari<br />“Keep your finger off the trigger” (kecuali sasaran sudah dalam bidikan), hal ini menghindari supaya trigger tidak tertekan atau tertarik pada saat yang tidak dikehendaki.<br />3. Pastikan kamar peluru kosong<br />Untuk mengecek kamar peluru kosong atau tidak bisa dilakukan dengan cara 3M yaitu melihat, meraba, dan mengokang.<br />meraba yaitu memasukkan jari dari lubang tempat magasen ataupun dari lubang blank ejector dengan cara menarik dan menahan tuas kokangan dibelakang lalu kamar peluru akan terlihat membuka dari sebelah kanan, lalu masukkan jari, setelah yakin kamar peluru sudah kosong jari dapat ditarik dari kamar peluru lalu tuas pengokang dapat dilepaskan.<br />Melihat dapat dilakukan dari lubang tempat magasen atau dari lubang blank ejector dengan cara menarik dan menahan tuas kokangan dibelakang lalu kamar peluru akan terlihat membuka dari sebelah kanan.<br /> Mengokang sebanyak tiga kali, lalu mengarahkan ujung laras ke udara lalu menarik pelatuk untuk memastikan bahwa tidak ada peluru di kamar peluru.<br /><br />B. Otak<br />Otak adalah pusat sistem saraf pada vertebrata dan banyak invertebrata lainnya.<br />Otak manusia adalah struktur pusat pengaturan yang memiliki volume sekitar 1.350cc dan terdiri atas 100 juta sel saraf atau neuron. Otak mengatur dan mengkordinir sebagian besar, gerakan, perilaku dan fungsi tubuh homeostasis seperti detak jantung, tekanan darah, keseimbangan cairan tubuh dan suhu tubuh. Otak manusia bertanggung jawab terhadap pengaturan seluruh badan dan pemikiran manusia. Oleh karena itu terdapat kaitan erat antara otak dan pemikiran. Otak dan sel saraf didalamnya dipercayai dapat memengaruhi kognisi manusia. Pengetahuan mengenai otak memengaruhi perkembangan psikologi kognitif. Otak juga bertanggung jawab atas fungsi seperti pengenalan, emosi. ingatan, pembelajaran motorik dan segala bentuk pembelajaran lainnya.<br /><br /><br />C. Prinsip Dasar Menembak<br />1. Bidikan (5%)<br />2. Pegangan / Grip (5%)<br />3. Posisi (5%)<br />4. Picu (5%)<br />5. Koordinasi :<br />- Pengaturan nafas (nafas bidik tekan picu / NABITEPI)<br />- Konsentrasi<br />- Kekuatan<br />- Urutan langkah<br /><br />1. Bidikan (5%)<br />- Jangan mengalihkan focus mata selama proses bidik hingga terjadinya letusan walaupun sesaat.<br />- Letakkan pipi secara normal dan hapalkan posisi penempatan pipi.<br />- Jangan pernah menghentikan gerakan penjera pada titik yang diinginkan karena gravitasi dan sistem keseimbangan tubuh ada pada otak tidak akan pernah bisa berhenti selama manusia itu masih hidup, jadi menghentikan gerakan penjera adalah mustahil.<br />- Follow trough (membuat gambar bidik / mengikuti sasaran)<br /><br />2. Pegangan (5%)<br />- Kekuatan tidak boleh 100%, grip kekuatan 3 jari cukup 45% s/d 50%.<br /><br />3. Posisi (5%)<br />- Teknik posisi adalah sarana untuj mengurangi besarnya gerakan pisir dan penjera pada wilayah sasaran.<br /><br />4. Picu (70%)<br />- Mudah dipelajari namun perlu dilatih<br />- Melakukan sistem perintah dengan otak<br /> Jangan melakukan sistem perintah dengan saraf tulang belakang (gerak reflek)<br />- Penempatan jari pada picu<br />- Penarikan picu konstan<br /> Jangan dihentak atau dipaksa ditarik yang nantinya akan mengakibatkan jerking).<br />- Pastikan fokus mata tetap pada ujung penjera sampai letusan berakhir<br />Jangan mengalihkan fokus, jangan melirik, dan pastikan pisir dan penjera dalam keadaan jelas lalu sasaran dalam keadaan buram.<br />- Waspada terhadap “locking time”<br />Locking time yaitu waktu dimana saat pelatuk ditarik lalu mengakibatkan mekanisme bekerja lalu sampai proyektil keluar dari laras senapan.<br /><br />5. Koordinasi sistem (15%)<br />Koordinasi sistem adalah kesatuan langkah yang baku yang dilakukan petembak secara sistematis dalam menerapkan keempat teknik oleh organ tubuhnya termasuk langkah dalal menangani peralatan yang digunakan.<br /><br />Dalam olah raga yang mempengaruhi adalah :<br />-<span> </span> Individu si petembak (faktor internal)<br />-<span> </span>Senjata (faktor alat)<br />-<span> </span>Alam (faktor luar)<br />Pengecekan sebelum menarik picu :<br />-<span> </span>Posisi apakah sudah oke? jika OKE lanjut ke fase selanjutnya<br />-<span> </span>Kelurusan apakah sudah oke? jika OKE lanjut ke fase selanjutnya<br />-<span> </span>Pegangan apakah sudah oke? jika OKE lanjut ke fase selanjutnya<br />-<span> </span>Fokus mata apakah sudah oke? jika OKE lanjut ke fase selanjutnya<br />-</span></span><span> </span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 150%;">Picu HAP (jari mulai jalan/menekan picu dengan perlahan) + ditambah tenaga tetapi tetap halus = sampai senappan meletus DOR…<br />Pemberian materi oleh pelatih ini selesai sekitar pukul 09.30, lalu acara dilanjutkan degan memisah team menjadi 2 yaitu team A dan team B, team A dan team B memiliki pelatih yang berbeda, hal ini menjadikan adanya perbedaan juga dalam pemberian materi lanjutan. Setelah ada pemberian materi lanjutan tentang posisi menembak dangan posisi tiarap maka dipersilahkan kepada 5 orang yang sudah siap untuk melakukan zeroing senapan, pelatih team A ada 2 orang, yang salah seorang diantaranya pemegang brevet menembak lanjut, dan keduanya pernah ditugaskan untuk menjadi pasukan perdamaian di Lebanon. Penembakan pertama adalah zeroing dengan tiap anggota team A diberikan 1 (satu) peluru, setelah itu senjata di set ulang, setelah pengesetan ulang maka pelatih memberikan 3 (tiga) peluru tambahan untuk melakukan zeroing ulang dan koreksi, lalu zeroing dilakukan oleh anggota team a yang lain sehingga semua anggota team A sudah melakukan zeroing.<br />Setelah zeroing maka dilakukan scoring ke sasaran oleh anggota team A,sebanyak 5 orang per kloter, tiap orang diberikan amunisi sebanyak 10 butir, penomoran diambil secara isi kosong dengan nomor genap, lalu dilakukan pencatatan skor, setelah semua anggota team A menembak maka setelah itu adalah kesempatan bagi team B untuk melakukan zeroing dan scoring. Saat team B melakukan zeroing dan scoring maka team A diambil alih dan dilatih oleh pelatih utama, disini team A diajarkan cara memegang senapan yang baik dan benar dan secara berulang-ulang dengan maksud agar supaya teknik tersebut dapat mendarah daging dan membekas didalam otak tiap anggota team A.<br />Setelah itu team A dikembalikan ke pelatih sebelumnya dan disini kami diceritakan banyak hal mengenai senjata yang kami pegang, para pelatih, dan pengalaman para pelatih dalam hal menembak dan pengalamannya dalam penugasan di Lebanon. Selang beberapa waktu setelah konsumsi datang ke lapangan tembak maka para peserta dipersilahkan mengembalikan senjata ke tempatnya dan beristirahat untuk makan siang.<br /> Setelah makan siang maka dilakukan pemanasan ulang dan perbaikan posisi menembak, lalu setelah itu dilakukan scoring fase 2, tiap anggota team A diberikan 10 (sepuluh) butir peluru, lalu dilakukan penembakan dan dicatat skornya.<br /> Setelah fase ini dilewati oleh team A dan team B para pelatih dan Pembina klub melakukan penembakan dan scoring, setelah itu dilakukan pengecekan sasaran, setelah semuanya melakukan penembakan maka sebagai acara penutup ada evaluasi dan pemberian hadiah kepada juara 1 yaitu yang skornya paling banyak, dan semua sesi akhirnya ditutup dengan dokumentasi bersama tiap team dengan para pelatihnya masing – masing, lalu dilanjutkan dengan foto seluruh anggota dan pelatih.<br /> Setelah acara dokumentasi maka para peserta dipulangkan kembali menggunakan truck ke Unit Kegiatan Mahasiswa Universitas Brawijaya, setelah sampai tempat tujuan jam 17.50 lalu dilakukan briefing akhir dan pengumuman scoring 10 terbaik dan 10 terburuk seluruh kegiatan ini berakhir sekitar jam 18.10.<br /><br />Senjata dan Amunisi :<br />- Senjata yang digunakan adalah senjata PINDAD SS-1, SS1 adalah singkatan dari Senapan Serbu 1, senapan serbu yang banyak digunakan oleh TNI dan POLRI. Senapan ini diproduksi oleh PT. Pindad Bandung, berdasarkan senapan FN FNC dengan lisensi dari perusahaan senjata Fabrique Nationale (FN), Belgia. Senapan ini menggunakan peluru kaliber 5.56 x 45 mm standar NATO dan memiliki berat kosong 4,01 kg. Senapan ini bersama-sama dengan M16, Steyr AUG dan AK-47 menjadi senapan standar TNI dan POLRI, tapi karena diproduksi di Indonesia, senapan ini paling banyak digunakan. SS-1 diproduksi dalam 2 konfigurasi utama, yaitu senapan standard dan karabin pendek. Versi senapan standar disebut SS1-V1 (FNC “Standard” Model 2000) dan karabin disebut SS1-V2 (FNC “Short” Model 7000). Kedua varian diatas dilengkapi dengan laras yang berisi pelintiran tembakan tangan kanan sepanjang 178 mm (untuk stabilisasi mengantisipasi peluru SS109 belgia yang lebih berat). Senjata yang digunakan kali ini adalah produksi antara tahun 1987 s/d 1989 dengan kondisi yang kurang layak (combat readiness rendah) untuk kegiatan olah raga menembak ataupun untuk peperangan yang sesungguhnya.<br /><br />- Amunisi yang digunakan adalah peluru tajam MU5-TJ (5,56 x 45 mm Ball) dengan ujung dan pantat peluru berwarna hijau (ball), peluru ini digunakan pada senapan : SS1-V1, SS1-V2, SS1-V3, SS1-V5, M16-A2, dll<br /><br />Evaluasi pelatih terhadap peserta :<br />1. Ketahanan<br />2. Pipi (perletakan), walaupun dalam menarik nafas ataupun mengokang senjata yang macet pipi harus tetap menempel dipopor senjata.<br />3. Picu (masih ada beberapa yang menyentak picu).<br />4. Grip kurang (kuncian untuk menahan tolak balik senjata)<br /><br />Opini pribadi :<br /> Secara keseluruhan acara berjalan lancar dan sangat menyenangkan, menurut saya pribadi ada satu permasalahan yaitu tentang senjata yang tidak semuanya homogen dalam hal detail desain dan bentuk seperti pegangan depan/grip, popor, dan ada beberapa yang modelnya berbeda dalam kualiatas dan dalam detailnya yang akhirnya juga mempengaruhi performa si penembak, menurut pengamatan yang saya lakukan dari sejumlah sekitar 20an senjata 60% diantaranya bermasalah, diantaranya adalah senjata yang menjadi pegangan saya yang sering macet, setelah menembakan 1 atau 2 peluru senjata pasti macet, hal ini mengakibatkan perlu mengokang ulang, mengeluarkan magasen dan mengeluarkan selongsong peluru yang menyangkut pada rulah peluru yang diakibatkan oleh mekanisme blank ejector yang sudah lemah sehingga sudah tidak mampu lagi untuk melontarkan selongsong peluru keluar dari kamar peluru yang akhirnya sebelum selongsong sempat keluar dari kamar peluru mekanisme sudah membalik lagi yang berujung tersangkutnya selongsong pada kamar peluru atau pada ujung kamar peluru.<br /> Macetnya senjata tiap kali menembak ini mengakibatkan harus diperbaikinya senjata tiap kali menembak dan berujung pada posisi tangan dan posisi pipi yang tidak lagi sama dengan posisi waktu menembak sebelumnya, dan ujung-ujungnya grouping menjadi agak kacau, senjata pertama saya ini dengan nomor seri 87012970.<br /> Pada waktu scoring fase kedua saya melakukan pergantian senjata dengan senjata yang katanya lebih baik dari senjata pertama, tetapi ternyata malah senjata ini kondisinya lebih parah daripada yang pertama saya pakai dalam hal akurasi dan ketahanan, dengan senjata kedua ini tiap kali saya menembak juga senjata sering macet, yang bukan hanya dikarenakan mekanisme blank ejector tetapi juga karena mekanisme yang sudah aus yang berujung double feed, selongsong melintang di kamar peluru dan lain lain. Lalu akhirnya pengawas line mengganti senjata saya dengan senjata yang lain (senjata ketiga), dan lagi-lagi senjata ini juga macet dan akurasinya juga sama kacaunya dengan senjata kedua, alhasil scoring saya pada fase kedua ini jauh lebih buruk daripada scoring saya yang pertama. Akhirnya sayapun mengerti mengapa seorang prajurit senjatanya tidak pernah ganti kecuali jika senjata itu rusak parah, hal ini dikarenakan agar si individu mengenal betul karakteristik senjatanya walaupun senjatanya macet-macetan.<br />Scoring pertama :<br />10 = 2, 9 = 2, 8 = 4, 7 = 2, jumlah = 84<br />Scoring kedua :<br />7 = 1, 6 = 2, 5 = 3, 3 = 2, 2 = 1, 1 = 1, jumlah = 43<br />Scoring total = 84 + 43 = 127<br /><br />Hasil konsultasi ke ahli senjata api (HHSamosir - United States Marine Corps):<br /> Dari penjelasan anda, yg paling sering menjadi penyebab kemacetan senjata is likely to be the magazine. Weak spring, tilted follower, dan deformed feed lips. Ke-tiga symptoms ini umum ditemukan di old, used, Stanag magazines spt yg dipakai SS1 (dan M16 juga). Selain itu, lubang di sisi kiri magazine dimana magazine latch mengunci saat magazine dimasukkan ke mag well di senjata kadang2 juga bisa worn out. Akibatnya magazine akan duduk lebih rendah dari posisi seharusnya yg dapat mengakibatkan all sorts of FTF issues.<br />Kemungkinan kedua adalah worn out extractor yg terpasang pada bolt. Extractor bisa worn out di dua tempat:<br />1. Spring becoming weak.<br />2. Extractor claw itself is worn and no longer able to positively grab the case rim. <br /> Kedua sumber umum terjadinya FTF ini tidak menjadi alasan yg cukup kuat utk mengganti senjata2 itu. Keduanya adalah bagian dari regular maintenance yg cukup mudah dilakukan oleh prajurit pemakai senjata itu sendiri. Hell, even I can do it. All you need is a small hammer and a punch to drive the extractor pin out. Once the spring is about to come out, watch out for the extractor because it can shoot across the room (spring loaded).<br />Sumber FTF yg ketiga adalah ejector, namun ini sangat jarang menjadi masalah karena ejector di FNC/SS1 bersifat static yg berupa bagian dari receiver yg tidak bergerak dan cukup rigid. Beda halnya dengan ejector di M16 yg juga spring loaded and will get weak over time.<br /><span> </span>Look, infantry rifles are NOT match rifles. Zeroing capability mereka tidak cukup halus to make a big difference in zero setting from one individual to another selama si pemakai memiliki ukuran tubuh yg setara. Every infantry rifle memiliki standard battle-sight zero procedure. If this is done correctly, all these rifles should be combat effective when used by anyone who is competent enough to do it. The idea of battle-sight zero is to make sure members of the same unit who fight alongside one another will be able to pick up a different rifle and shoot it right away in combat without loosing his combat effectiveness from zeroing difference. Yes, it is best to use a rifle that you zero yourself. But in my experience shooting various military rifles, the battle-sight zero is quite effective for a "one size fits most" solution.<br /><br /><br />DAFTAR PUSTAKA</span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif; line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 150%;">http://consicul.wordpress.com/militer/<br />http://id.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batalyon_Infanteri_Lintas_Udara_502<br />http://id.wikipedia.org/wiki/Otak<br />http://id.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pindad_SS1<br />http://mappajarungi.multiply.com/journal/item/11?&show_interstitial=1&u=%2Fjournal%2Fitem<br />http://wikimapia.org/#lat=-7.9335629&lon=112.7432013&z=16&l=0&m=b&show=/16938532/Lapangan-tembak-600-M <br /></span></span></div>Fahd Thoricky and Fuad Cahaya Rimbahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06050145835795989943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1667212858435769741.post-91551053326290037432010-07-25T23:26:00.008+07:002010-12-23T17:07:36.138+07:00Indomie - Instant Noodle<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiA5fHvBjVoFvORDzAK_91lTV5jCynkZP57_tWo3PH5GZeEUVACGwlHEFn5d8qVP8-fXYnZvmGzX3rcKj9jxO0T6yeS35T0PUMSga4aMWo0JjTSopSHjJdNjjudG4WLZFDjEVgaHd0fmYs/s1600/2010114162836198.jpg"><img style="float: right; margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; cursor: pointer; width: 170px; height: 132px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiA5fHvBjVoFvORDzAK_91lTV5jCynkZP57_tWo3PH5GZeEUVACGwlHEFn5d8qVP8-fXYnZvmGzX3rcKj9jxO0T6yeS35T0PUMSga4aMWo0JjTSopSHjJdNjjudG4WLZFDjEVgaHd0fmYs/s400/2010114162836198.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5497884407088456514" border="0" /></a><span style="font-size:100%;"><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:180%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">INDOMIE</span></span><br />Indomie is a brand of instant noodles by Indofood Sukses Makmur, the world's largest instant noodle manufacturer, located in Indonesia.

/><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /></span><span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:100%;" >Sekilas Tentang John Titor</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">Seseorang yang mengaku dari tahun 2036 datang ke tahun 2000 untuk memposting di forum internet, mengaku sebagai prajurit amerika di tahun 2036 mengemban misi ke tahun 1975 untuk mengambil komputer portable pertama di dunia yaitu IBM 5100, dan mampir di tahun 2000-2001 untuk melihat keluarganya.</span><span style="font-size:100%;"> Adapun pro dan kontra terhadap orang ini di forum menjadi topik hangat saat itu, karena dia dapat membuktikan hal-hal yang akan terjadi di masa depan, dia juga mengupload foto mesin waktu nya, cara kerjanya, dan juga menyebarkan formula ilmiah mesin waktu tersebut di forum.</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">Beberapa orang di forum mulai memberondong John Titor dgn beragam pertanyaan, kesimpulan yang di dapat bahwa JOhn Titor adalah orang yg cerdas dan mempunya ilmu pengetahuan science yg mendalam, meski John mengaku spesialisasi di History bukan di bidang komputer maupun science.</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /><br /></span><span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:100%;" >Siapa Sih John Titor Itu</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">Siapa John Titor ? Dia mengaku lahir tahun 1998 di florida, dia mengemban tugas dari tahun 2036 untuk ke tahun 1975 tuk mengambil PC IBM 5100, yg menurut dia dimana pc itu terdapat bahasa unix yg dpt memecahkan beragam bahasa unix. menurut dia teknologi di pc itu hanya seglintir org ibm saja yg tahu dan teknologi itu tidak pernah lagi di pasang di pc generasi selanjut nya hingga 2036.</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">Menurut dia semua sistem unix akan menghadapi time error di tahun 2036, oleh sebab itu IBM 5100 sangat penting.</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">Hal ini langsung di akui oleh pihak IBM , dan mereka kaget, karena hanya 5 org yg mengetahui hal itu, dan itu pun terjadi pada tahun 1975.</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">Konsep mesin waktu, John mengaku mesin waktu yg di pakai dia adalah C204 yg dpt memuat sampai 3 org mesin ini dimiliki oleh militer amerika di tahun 2036, dan mesin waktu bukan barang yg aneh di masa dia, ada lagi yg tipe lebih besar yaitu C206 yg di buat oleh GE (General Electric) dapat sampai 7 orang. Mesin ini hanya mampu membawa mereka maksium 60tahun ke masa silam dgn kecepatan 10 tahun per jam.</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">Tanggapan Saya :</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">Wah jangan-jangan dia robot T-600/T-800/T-1000 yang nyari keberadaan John Connor and Kyle Reese.. (Kebanyakan Nonton Terminator Salvation).. </span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">Atau dia anaknya James yang keluar dari Vault 101 buat nyari bapaknya yang melarikan diri dari Vault 101 (Kebanyakan Main Game Fallout 3)..</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">Beberapa hal yang di sarankan John Titor kepada manusia:</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">1. Jangan makan atau menggunakan produk dari binatang yang di beri makan atau makan bangkai sesamanya.</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">2. Ambilah salinan Undang-undang US dan baca lah.</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">3. Kurangin makan.</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">4. Belajar lah dasar sanitasi dan penjernihan air.</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">5. Biasakanlah menggunakan senjata api, belajar menembak dan membersihkan senjata api.</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">6. Selalu sediakan kotak P3k dan belajarlah untuk menggunakannya.</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">7. Carilah 5 org yang anda percaya dalam radius 100mil dan biasakanlah untuk selalu berkomunikasi dengan menanyakan keadaan sekitar.</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">8. Carilah sepeda dan 2 set ban cadangan, bersepedalah 10 mil tiap minggu.</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">9. Pikirkanlah apa yang harus anda bawa jika anda harus meninggalkan rumah dalam waktu 10 menit dan tidak akan pernah kembali lagi.</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">10. Jgn cium atau berhubungan intim dgn org yang anda tidak kenal.</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">Maksudnya John Titor mungkin hanya mengingatkan kita bila nanti ada bencana besar seperti perang, gunung meletus, gempa, banjir dan lain - lain kita sudah siap jadi tingkat survivalitas (kemampuan bertahan hidup) kita jadi meningkat.</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">kalau dijabarkan mungkin seperti ini gan :</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">1. Makan binatang bertaring (Karnivora) bagi orang islam itu haram hukumnya gan and hewan karnivora tuh banyak penyakitnya (mungkin nantinya akan jadi pembawa / carrier penyakit mematikan) soalnya binatang karnivora biasanya liar and jorok (misalnya anjing liar, kucing liar, coyote)</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">2. Mungkin kalo di indonesia ambillah salinan UUD 1945 mungkin maksudnya agar dasar negara kita tidak punah dan hilang begitu saja.</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">3. Supaya agan nggak terlalu gemuk, and bisa bertahan hidup kalo ada bencana besar and stock makanan menipis, coba jika ada bencana semacam WEDHUS GEMBEL / AWAN PANAS and badan agan terlalu gemuk, mau lari aja susah kan.</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">4. Hematlah air (ingat kampanye SAVE WATER) and maksud lainnya biar agan bisa menyuling / memproduksi air minum sendiri kalau PDAM mati, listrik mati atau jalur distribusi air mineral terganggu.</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">5. Biar kalau terjadi total chaos kita bisa membeladiri pake senjata api, atau buat berburu binatang kalau makanan minim, atau buat menembak orang2 jahat yang berkeliaran waktu dunia udah total chaos, kalau di indonesia mungkin memakai senjata tajam atau senjata jarak jauh macam sumpit, tulup, ketapel, ataupun panah.</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">6. Biar kalau agan atau orang lain mengalami luka / kecelakaan biar gampang nanganinnya and mengerti teknik2 P3K.</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">7. Bersilaturahmi langsung, dan bukan lewat jejaring sosial ataupun dunia maya, kan lebih afdol tuh, soalnya menjalin tali silaturahmi kan juga mendapat pahala.</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">8. Supaya badan kita tetap sehat gan and ingat kampanye ("STOP GLOBAL WARMING" + "GO GREEN") salah satunya dengan meminimalisir penggunaan kendaraan bermotor, and kalau kita sehat kan kita bisa mengungsi secepatnya kalau ada bencana, coba kalau agan sakit terus tiba-tiba ada bencana kan bisa kacau.</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">9. Kalau terjadi bencana besar agan sudah siap, ini namanya bugout atau mengungsi, jangan lupa bawa bugout bag (peralatan survival and emergency untuk mengungsi).</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">10. untuk meminimalisir penularan penyakit / wabah melalui pertukaran cairan tubuh misalnya SARS, Avian Flu (Flu Burung), HIV / AIDS, Meningitis, DLL..</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">contoh kasusnya jika daerah tempat tinggal agan tiba - tiba ada bencana besar misalnya kayak gunung sinabung, gunung merapi kemaren itu agan - agan dapat cepat and tanggap menghadapi situasi, dalam situasi seperti itu waktu sekian detik menentukan nyawa agan dan keluarga agan..</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;">Ini Hanya pendapat saya belaka, mungkin anda punya pendapat lain, CMIIW..</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /><br /><br /></span><span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:100%;" >Mau Tau Bagaimana Menyusun Bug Out Bag dan Kelengkapannya?</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /></span><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);font-size:100%;" >http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bug_out_bag</span><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);font-size:100%;" ><br /></span><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);font-size:100%;" >http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retreat_%28survivalism%29</span><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);font-size:100%;" ><br /></span><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);font-size:100%;" >http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Survival_kit</span><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);font-size:100%;" ><br /></span><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);font-size:100%;" >http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Survival_radio</span><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);font-size:100%;" ><br /></span><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);font-size:100%;" >http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Survival_skills</span><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);font-size:100%;" ><br /></span><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);font-size:100%;" >http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Survivalism</span><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);font-size:100%;" ><br /></span><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);font-size:100%;" >http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Survivalist</span><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);font-size:100%;" ><br /></span><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);font-size:100%;" >http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ten_Essentials</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /><br /><br /></span><span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:100%;" >Survival Manual :</span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /></span><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);font-size:100%;" >http://www.deltagearinc.com/Downloads/FM21-75.pdf</span><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);font-size:100%;" ><br /></span><span style="font-size:100%;"><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);">http://www.enlisted.info/field-manuals/fm-21-75-combat-skills-of-the-soldier.shtml</span> (Daftar Buku -

The Amazing Randi, magician andJames Randi author of numerous works skeptical of paranormal, supernatural, and pseudoscientific claims has for about ten years offered "a one-million-dollar prize to anyone who can show, under proper observing conditions, evidence of any paranormal, supernatural, or occult power." His rules were little more than what any reasonable scientist would require. If you are a mental spoon bender, you couldn't use your own spoons. If you claimed to see auras, you'd have to do so under controlled conditions. If you claimed to be able to do remote viewing, you wouldn't be given credit for coming close in some vague way. If you were going to demonstrate dowsing powers, you would have to be prepared to be tested under controlled conditions. If you were going to do psychic surgery or experience the stigmata, you would have to do so with cameras watching your every move.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">ONE MILLION CHALLENGE PARANORMAL</span><br /><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;">http://www.randi.org/site/index.php/</span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">1</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;">m-challenge/challenge-application.html</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Application for Status of Claimant</span><br /><span style=";font-family:arial;font-size:130%;" ><strong><br /><br />THE SIXTEEN OFFICIAL RULES GOVERNING THE JREF CHALLENGE:</strong></span><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:arial;" ><br /><br /></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;">I, James Randi, through the JREF, will pay US$</span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">1,000,000</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;"> [One Million Dollars/US] to any person who can demonstrate any psychic, supernatural or paranormal ability under satisfactory observing conditions. Such demonstration must take place under the following rules and limitations: </span><p align="justify" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">1</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text">. This is the primary and most important of these rules: Applicant must state clearly in advance, and applicant and JREF will agree upon, what powers and/or abilities will be demonstrated, the limits of the proposed demonstration (so far as time, location and other variables are concerned) and what will constitute both a positive and a negative result.</span></p> <p align="justify" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">2</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text">. Only an actual performance of the stated nature and scope, within the agreed-upon limits, will be accepted. Anecdotal accounts or records of previous events are not accepted nor considered.</span></p> <p align="justify" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">3</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text">. We will consult competent statisticians when an evaluation of the experimental design, is required. We have no interest in theories nor explanations of how the claimed powers might work; if an applicant provides us with such material, it will be ignored and discarded.</span></p> <p align="justify" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">4</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text">. Applicant agrees that all data (photographic, recorded, written, etc.) gathered as a result of the setup, the protocol, and the actual testing, may be used freely by the JREF.</span></p> <p align="justify" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">5</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text">. After an agreement is reached on the protocol, no part of the testing procedure may be changed in any way without the further agreement – in writing – of all parties concerned. JR may or may not be present at some preliminary or some formal tests, but he will not interact with the materials used, nor with the protocol, unless specifically requested to do so by the applicant.</span></p> <p align="justify" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">6</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text">. In all cases, applicant will be required to perform a preliminary test either before an appointed representative, if distance and time dictate that need, or in a location where a member or representative of the JREF staff can attend. This preliminary test is to determine if the applicant is likely to perform as promised during a formal test, using the agreed-upon protocol. To date, no applicant has passed the preliminary test, and this has eliminated the need for formal testing in those cases. There is no limit on the number of times an applicant may re-apply, but re-application can take place only after </span><span class="currency_converter_text"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">12</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text"> months have elapsed since the completion of the preliminary test.</span><br /><br /><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">7</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text">. All of the applicant's expenses such as transportation, accommodation, materials, assistants, and/or all other costs for any persons or procedures incurred in pursuit of the reward, are the sole responsibility of the applicant. Neither the JREF nor JR will bear any of the costs.</span></p> <p align="justify" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">8</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text">. When entering into this challenge, as far as this may be done by established legal statutes, the applicant surrenders any and all rights to legal action against Mr. Randi, and/or against any persons peripherally involved, and/or against the James Randi Educational Foundation. This applies to injury, and/or accident, and/or any other damage of a physical and/or emotional nature, and/or financial and/or professional loss, and/or damage of any kind. However, this rule in no way affects the awarding of the prize, once it is properly won in accord with the protocol.</span></p> <p align="justify" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">9</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text">. At the formal test, in advance, an independent person will be placed in charge of a personal check from James Randi for US$</span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">10,000</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text">. In the event that the claimant is successful under the agreed-upon terms and conditions, that check shall be immediately surrendered to the claimant, and within ten days the James Randi Educational Foundation will pay to the claimant the remainder of the reward, for a total of US$</span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">1,000,000</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text">. One million dollars in negotiable bonds is held by an investment firm in New York, in the "James Randi Educational Foundation Prize Account" as surety for the prize funds. Validation of this account and its current status may be obtained by contacting the Foundation by telephone, fax, or e-mail.</span><br /><br /><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">10</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text">.

This offer is made by James Randi through the JREF, on the behalf of no other person, agency or organization. Although others may become involved in the examination of claims and may add their reward money to the total in certain circumstances, James Randi (via the JREF) will carry out the implementation and management of the challenge. JREF will not entertain any demand that the prize money be deposited in escrow, displayed in cash, or otherwise produced in advance of the test being performed.</span></p> <p align="justify" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">12</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text">. This offer is not open to any and all persons. Before being considered as an applicant, the person applying must satisfy two conditions: First, he/she must have a “media presence,” which means having been published, written about, or known to the media in regard to his/her claimed abilities or powers. This can be established by producing articles, videos, books, or other published material that specifically addresses the person’s abilities. Second, he/she must produce at least one signed document from an academic who has witnessed the powers or abilities of the person, and will validate that these powers or abilities have been verified.</span><br /><br /><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">13</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text">. An applicant can be from or in any part of the world, and gender, age, race, and educational background are not factors for acceptance.</span></p> <p align="justify" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">14</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text">.

EVERY APPLICANT MUST AGREE UPON WHAT WILL CONSTITUTE A CONCLUSION THAT, ON THE OCCASION OF THE PRELIMINARY OR THE FORMAL TEST, HE OR SHE DID OR DID NOT DEMONSTRATE THE CLAIMED ABILITY OR POWER.</span></p> <p style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">16</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text">. This notarized form must be accompanied by a brief, two-paragraph description of what will constitute the demonstration. Upon a protocol being developed, that description may be extended.</span></p> <p face="arial" align="justify">PLEASE: Do not burden us with theories, philosophical observations, previous examples, anecdotal evidence or other comments! We are only interested in an actual demonstration.</p> <p style="font-family: arial;" align="justify">NOTE: No special rules, exceptions, conditions, standards, or favors will be granted without the mutual agreement of all those concerned – in advance. Any applicant who refuses to agree to meet the rules as outlined here, will not be considered to have ever been an applicant. Only complete agreement with these rules will allow the "applicant" to become a "claimant." Applicant, by signing, notarizing and submitting this form, signifies agreement with all of the above rules. Be advised that you should conduct proper and secure tests of your own to determine whether your abilities or claims are actually valid.<br /><br />This application will be signed by JR and returned to the applicant by mail after a test protocol has been mutually agreed upon, and a test date and location have been determined.<br /><br />IMPORTANT: Only claims that can be verified by evidence under proper observing conditions will be accepted. Also, JREF will NOT accept claims of the existence of deities or demons/angels, the validity of exorcism, religious claims, cloudbusting, causing the Sun to rise or the stars to move, etc. JREF will also NOT test claims that are likely to cause injury of any sort, such as those involving the withholding of air, food or water, or the use of illicit materials, drugs, or dangerous devices.</p><p style="font-family: arial;" align="justify"><br /></p><p style="font-family: arial;" align="justify"><span class="currency_converter_text">In January </span><span class="currency_converter_text"><span class="currency_converter_text">2008</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text">, the JREF announced that the offer of the million dollar prize will cease on March </span><span class="currency_converter_text"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">6</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text">, </span><span class="currency_converter_text"><span class="currency_converter_text">2010</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text">.</span><br /></p><br /><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;">There are others offering prizes to anyone who can demonstrate psychic powers.

Through their two American representatives, these folks applied in the regular way, submitting the notarized application form, and we arranged for representatives -- including Professor Sohl -- to conduct the preliminary test. As we announced last week, they failed the test.</span><br /><br /><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;">I will briefly outline here a few of the expected "hallmarks" of this procedure as they took place in Utah at the Ott Planetarium of Weber State University at Ogden. In the pre-trial demonstration, which I had suggested so that their regular operating methods could be clearly seen, and at which they would be very successful, they achieved </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">100</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="currency_converter_text"> percent results using their own blindfolds and their own blindfolding techniques. That was to be expected, of course. Though the "Master" performer of the group simply refused to be tested, a student with "over </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">20</span><span class="currency_converter_text"> years of Vibravision experience" did submit to examination.</span></span><br /><br /><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;">In the preliminary test, done under the conditions chosen by the claimants, the results for </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">100</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;"> percent correct. At that point, proper blindfolds were applied to conduct the formal preliminary tests. To quote Professor Sohl, the "subject voiced repeated concern about the blindfold and was clearly concerned about it. After over </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">45</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="currency_converter_text"> minutes of delays, he managed to free the blindfold enough to see (which is caught completely on video tape). The clearly-loose blindfold was reapplied at which point the subject became distressed again. Finally, after many more delays the subject ran the test . . ." After a series of delays totaling over an hour, the results were three correct out of </span><span class="currency_converter_text">19</span><span class="currency_converter_text"> trials, while the odds by chance alone would have called for </span></span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">3.2</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;"> correct.</span><br /><br /><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;">This is what always happens during these preliminary tests. No one has yet passed any preliminary tests for the JREF prize. What made this set of tests of particular importance was that the two American sponsors had invested a total of $</span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">80,000</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;"> in these claimants, thoroughly confident that they would win the prize. Though Andrew Harter and myself tried to warn the Americans not to make such an investment, our pleas -- as they say -- fell on deaf ears.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">We want to thank sincerely all those who were involved in acting on behalf of the JREF to conduct this test. I'm sure there was a certain amount of dismay on their part when they saw the extreme disillusionment of the sponsors. I have assured them however that those who were deceived always manage to make adjustments in their thinking, and can rationalize away such failures for reasons that have nothing to do with whether or not they were cheated, lied to, or swindled. We can look forward to hearing from the Americans that they are still convinced of the magical powers of these martial artists - who have obviously discovered that there is more advantage in promoting nonsense and superstition than in teaching a legitimate art.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">You may wish to go to www.merpatiputih.com, the web page of</span><br /><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;">I. G. M. P., and see just how much they will charge to teach blind people to see. It amounts to $</span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">116,500</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;"> for the full course. To quote their advertisement:</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Objects around us generate vibrations and ILMU GETARAN MERPATI PUTIH relies on our innate ability to detect the vibrations of objects nearby. This ability or sense can be improved by practice.</span><br /><br /><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;">Well, </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">20</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;"> years of practice doesn't seem to have improved the Indonesian practitioner who performed for the preliminary test in Utah. He did no better than a Chinese fortune cookie. And just why didn't the "Master" of these performers allow himself to be tested? There has to be a very good reason for that, though the believers will reason around it. This group is very similar to the Mexicans I tested some years ago on Japanese television, in that they, too, claim that they can teach the blind to see. This is a cruel hoax and deception. We at the JREF are very distressed to know that these things are going on, and that we are essentially powerless to stop them.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight:

Later calls to me personally by Nate contained</span></span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">complaints that their eye lashes were being pulled on and that they were distracted by it.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Further notes:</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Nate informed me that they were teaching blind people from Indonesia for free. This is not the case for Americans.</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">As clear evidence that they are attempting to take blind people's money, I refer you to the following URL:</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">http://www.merpatiputih.com/visual/fees.htm</span><br /><br /><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;">As you can see, the total cost for the full </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">18</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;"> month three-part training is about $</span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">110,000</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;"> per participant (not</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">counting air faire to Indonesia). The fees are not refundable in the case that VV ability in not achieved.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Nate was clearly distraught and informed me by phone the following day that they would get proof</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">from experts at the University of Indonesia, Jakarta, and reapply for the JREF prize monies at a later date.</span><br /><br /><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;">Randi entered the international spotlight in </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">1972</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;"> when he publicly challenged the claims of Uri Geller. Randi accused Geller of being nothing more than a charlatan and a fraud, who used standard magic tricks to accomplish his allegedly paranormal feats, and he supported his claims in the book The Truth About Uri Geller. Geller unsuccessfully sued Randi for $</span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">15</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;"> million in </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">1991</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;">. Geller's suit against the Committee for Scientific Investigation of Claims of the Paranormal (CSICOP) was thrown out in </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">1995</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;">, and he was ordered to pay $</span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">120,000</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;"> for filing a frivolous lawsuit.</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Randi was a founding fellow and prominent member of CSICOP. During the period when Geller was filing numerous civil suits against him, CSICOP's leadership, wanting to avoid becoming a target of Geller's litigation, requested that Randi refrain from commenting on Geller. Randi refused and resigned. However, he still maintains a respectful relationship with the group and frequently writes articles for its magazine.</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Randi has gone on to write several books criticizing beliefs and claims regarding the paranormal. He has also demonstrated flaws in studies suggesting the existence of paranormal phenomena; in his Project Alpha hoax, Randi revealed that he had been able to orchestrate a three-year-long compromise of a privately-funded psychic research experiment. The hoax became a scandal and demonstrated the shortcomings of many paranormal research projects at the university level.</span><br /><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;">Randi has appeared on numerous TV shows, sometimes to directly debunk the claimed abilities of fellow guests. In a </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">1981</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;"> appearance on That's My Line, Randi appeared opposite psychic James Hydrick, who claimed that he could move things with his mind and demonstrated this ability on live television by apparently turning a page in a telephone book without touching it. Randi, having determined that Hydrick was surreptitiously blowing on the book, arranged packaging peanuts (polystyrene foam shapes) on the table in front of the telephone book for the demonstration, preventing Hydrick from demonstrating his abilities, which would have been exposed when the blowing moved the packaging. Many years later, Hydrick admitted his fraud.</span><br /><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;">Randi was awarded a MacArthur Foundation Genius award in </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">1986</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;">. The money was used for Randi's comprehensive exposé of faith healers, including Peter Popoff, W.V. Grant and Ernest Angley. When Popoff was exposed, he was forced to declare bankruptcy within the year.</span><br /><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;">In </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">1988</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;">, Randi tested the gullibility of the media by perpetrating a fraud of his own. By teaming up with Australia's </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">60</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;"> Minutes program and by releasing a fake press package, he built up publicity for a spirit channeler named Carlos who was actually artist Jose Alvarez, a friend of Randi. Randi would tell him what to say through sophisticated radio equipment. The media and the public were taken in, as no reporter bothered to check Carlos's credentials and history, which were all fabricated. The hoax was exposed on </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">60</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;"> Minutes; Carlos and Randi explained how they pulled it off.</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">In the book The Faith Healers, Randi explains his anger and relentlessness as arising out of compassion for the helpless victims of frauds. Randi has also been critical of João de Deus (John of God), a self-proclaimed psychic surgeon who has received international attention. Randi observed, referring to psychic surgery, "To any experienced conjurer, the methods by which these seeming miracles are produced are very obvious."</span><br /><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;">In </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">1982</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;">, Randi verified the abilities of Arthur Lintgen, a Philadelphia physician who is able to determine the classical music recorded on a vinyl LP solely by examining the grooves on the record. However, Lintgen does not claim to have any paranormal ability, merely knowledge of the way that the grooves form patterns on particular recordings.</span><br /><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;">James Randi stated that Daniel Dunglas Home was caught cheating on a few occasions, but the episodes were never made public, and that the accordion Home is supposed to have played without touching it was a one-octave mouth organ that Home concealed under his large moustache. James Randi writes that one-octave mouth organs were found in Home's belongings after his death. According to Randi 'around </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">1960</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;">' William Lindsay Gresham told Randi he had seen these mouth organs in the Home collection at the Society for Psychical Research. Eric Dingwall who catalogued Home's collection on its arrival at the SPR does not record the presence of the mouth organs. According to Peter Lamont, the author of an extensive Home biography, "It is unlikely Dingwall would have missed these or did not make them public.</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Other Source :</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Professor John Sohl has been kind enough to supply us with a report on the recent preliminary testing of the Indonesian claimants for the JREF million-dollar prize. Through their two American representatives, these folks applied in the regular way, submitting the notarized application form, and we arranged for representatives -- including Professor Sohl -- to conduct the preliminary test. As we announced last week, they failed the test.</span><br /><br /><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;">I will briefly outline here a few of the expected "hallmarks" of this procedure as they took place in Utah at the Ott Planetarium of Weber State University at Ogden. In the pre-trial demonstration, which I had suggested so that their regular operating methods could be clearly seen, and at which they would be very successful, they achieved </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">100</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="currency_converter_text"> percent results using their own blindfolds and their own blindfolding techniques. That was to be expected, of course. Though the "Master" performer of the group simply refused to be tested, a student with "over </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">20</span><span class="currency_converter_text"> years of Vibravision experience" did submit to examination.</span></span><br /><br /><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;">In the preliminary test, done under the conditions chosen by the claimants, the results for </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">100</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;"> percent correct. At that point, proper blindfolds were applied to conduct the formal preliminary tests. To quote Professor Sohl, the "subject voiced repeated concern about the blindfold and was clearly concerned about it. After over </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">45</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="currency_converter_text"> minutes of delays, he managed to free the blindfold enough to see (which is caught completely on video tape). The clearly-loose blindfold was reapplied at which point the subject became distressed again. Finally, after many more delays the subject ran the test . . ." After a series of delays totaling over an hour, the results were three correct out of </span><span class="currency_converter_text">19</span><span class="currency_converter_text"> trials, while the odds by chance alone would have called for </span></span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">3.2</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;"> correct.</span><br /><br /><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;">This is what always happens during these preliminary tests. No one has yet passed any preliminary tests for the JREF prize. What made this set of tests of particular importance was that the two American sponsors had invested a total of $</span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">80,000</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;"> in these claimants, thoroughly confident that they would win the prize. Though Andrew Harter and myself tried to warn the Americans not to make such an investment, our pleas -- as they say -- fell on deaf ears.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">We want to thank sincerely all those who were involved in acting on behalf of the JREF to conduct this test. I'm sure there was a certain amount of dismay on their part when they saw the extreme disillusionment of the sponsors. I have assured them however that those who were deceived always manage to make adjustments in their thinking, and can rationalize away such failures for reasons that have nothing to do with whether or not they were cheated, lied to, or swindled. We can look forward to hearing from the Americans that they are still convinced of the magical powers of these martial artists - who have obviously discovered that there is more advantage in promoting nonsense and superstition than in teaching a legitimate art.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">You may wish to go to www.merpatiputih.com, the web page of</span><br /><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;">I. G. M. P., and see just how much they will charge to teach blind people to see. It amounts to $</span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">116,500</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;"> for the full course. To quote their advertisement:</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Objects around us generate vibrations and ILMU GETARAN MERPATI PUTIH relies on our innate ability to detect the vibrations of objects nearby. This ability or sense can be improved by practice.</span><br /><br /><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;">Well, </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">20</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;"> years of practice doesn't seem to have improved the Indonesian practitioner who performed for the preliminary test in Utah. He did no better than a Chinese fortune cookie. And just why didn't the "Master" of these performers allow himself to be tested? There has to be a very good reason for that, though the believers will reason around it. This group is very similar to the Mexicans I tested some years ago on Japanese television, in that they, too, claim that they can teach the blind to see. This is a cruel hoax and deception. We at the JREF are very distressed to know that these things are going on, and that we are essentially powerless to stop them.</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Source:</span><br /><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="currency_converter_text">http://www.randi.org/jr/</span><span class="currency_converter_text">10</span><span class="currency_converter_text">-</span><span class="currency_converter_text">16</span><span class="currency_converter_text">-</span><span class="currency_converter_text">2000</span><span class="currency_converter_text">.html</span></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Other:</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">http://nowscape.com/vibra/</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">http://www.nowscape.com/vibra/Test_Results.htm</span><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style=";font-family:arial;font-size:180%;" ><b><span style="color:black;">IN BAHASA INDONESIA / DALAM BAHASA INDONESIA<span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /><br /><br /></span></span></b></span><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:arial;font-size:130%;" ><span class="currency_converter_text">Sayembara dengan hadiah </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">1</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text"> juta USD</span></span><br /><br /><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;">The One Million Dollar Paranormal Challenge adalah sebuah tantangan yg disayembarakan oleh The James Randi Educational Foundation yg bersedia untuk memberikan hadiah sebesar </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">1.000.000</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;"> USD kepada siapa aja yg bisa memberikan bukti ilmiah untuk kegiatan paranormal, hal-hal ttg supranatural, kejadian yg berbau mistik atau kekuatan yg berasal dari pemujaan.

Merpati Putih gagal membuktikan kemampuannya melihat dengan mata tertutup dan dianggap sebagai salah satu HOAX terkenal dari Indonesia (try google "Merpati Putih Hoax").</span></span><br /><br /><br /><span style=";font-family:arial;font-size:130%;" ><span style="font-weight: bold;">Pendapat Kaskuser :</span></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Merpati Putih adalah Perguruan Pencak Silat yang ilmiah, tidak ada mantra dan klenik. Semua realitas dan logis. Kemampuan pesilat Merpati Putih mematahkan benda-benda keras seperti kikir, baja, gagang pompa, pipa beton, dsb. didapat dari zat yang disebut Adenose Triposphat (ATP).</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Setiap saat kita melakukan suatu kegiatan yang tidak kita sadari yaitu bernapas. Menghirup napas bisa dikatakan sebagai usaha membersihkan paru-paru. Peristiwa pernapasan melibatkan oksigen (zat asam), sehingga terjadilah peristiwa kimiawi yang disebut oksidasi dan menimbulkan panas atau energi.</span><br /><br /><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;">Dalam teori listrik, kekurangan satu elektron dari satu atom akan menimbulkan gaya listrik. Ketika kita menghirup napas yang kemudian ditahan, akan terjadi pula kekurangan zat asam. Pada saat berlangsung kekurangan ini, timbul suatu zat baru yang sangat aktif untuk membantu mempercepat pengulangan peristiwa kimiawi tadi. Zat ini dikenal sebagai Adenose Triposphat atau disingkat ATP. Tenaga yang ditimbulkan ATP ini adalah </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">5</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;"> kali tenaga yang dihasilkan oleh peristiwa oksidasi itu sendiri.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Untuk mendapatkan ATP diperlukan syarat-syarat, seperti penegangan otot, kemudian digabungkan dengan kemampuan psikis dan biologis. Kalau proses oksidasi terus berulang dengan cepat maka akan timbul getaran. Getaran bisa ditingkatkan frequensinya bila kita mengenal ciri-cirinya.</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Teknik getaran inilah yang dimanfaatkan Merpati Putih untuk memecahkan benda-benda keras seperti balok es, batang pompa dragon, beton cor, kikir atau per mobil.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Dengan mengirim getaran lewat tangan, kaki atau kepala akan mempengaruhi susunan molekul pada benda yang akan dipatahkan. Pada saat molekul pada garis yang kita jadikan sasaran itu berada dalam keadaan labil, maka sasaran itu kita hantam. Jadi yang terpenting disini bukan kekuatan tetapi momentum pukulan.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Dengan alat yang disebut osciloscope telah berhasil dideteksi lima macam getaran yang ada pada murid Merpati Putih. Sedangkan menurut Dewan Guru masih ada getaran keenam, tetapi masih dalam taraf pengujian. Apakah getaran keenam ini merupakan "Senjata Pamungkas" dari MP kita tunggu saja kiprah Merpati Putih lebih lanjut.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Merpati Putih menggunakan tenaga dalam asli manusia, dengan permainan napas. Pada orang biasa, tenaga asli tersebut dapat dilihat dan digunakan hanya pada saat orang bersangkutan dalam kondisi terdesak saja. Misal: melompat pagar saat anjing mengejarnya di jalan yang buntu. Dalam keadaan kembali normal / tidak terdesak, orang tersebut serasa tidak percaya telah melompati pagar yang tinggi tersebut. Maka di dalam Pencak Silat ini, bagaimana menggunakan tenaga ekstra asli manusia tersebut pada saat normal, kapanpun dan dimanapun.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Secara normal sel dalam tubuh manusia menghasilkan zat yang bernama Adenosine Triphospate (A.T.P) yang merupakan cadangan energi dalam tubuh. Maka dengan bantuan teknik olah nafas, tenaga tersembunyi manusia itu dapat di latih untuk diperoleh dan dikumpulkan di dalam tubuh. Ada banyak Jurus (teknik olah) Pernapasan di dalam Pencak Silat ini diantaranya Pernapasan Pembinaan dan Pernapasan Pengolahan. Juga Ada beberapa Teknik Jurus diantaranya adalah Rangkaian Gerakan Terikat (RGT) dan Rangkaian Gerakan Bebas (RGB) Selain itu juga ada beberapa Teknik Langkah dan Gerak, diantaranya adalah Langkah Praktis dan Gerak Praktis.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Selain dari Diri Sendiri (energi badan), pengambilan energi getaran di Pencak Silat Merpati Putih ini dapat pula diambil dari alam seperti dari Bumi (energi tanah juga pohon yang berusia amat tua), atau bahkan energi dari Angkasa (energi bintang, matahari ataupun bulan.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Beberapa tahun belakangan, ilmu tenaga dalam Merpati Putih yang mengandung energi dan getaran ini telah diselidiki lebih jauh secara ilmu pengetahuan dan dikembangkan juga untuk pengobatan serta untuk kepentingan orang tuna netra, agar mereka bisa membaca, membedakan dan mengenali warna serta dapat mempermudah segala aktivitas lainnya sehari-hari.</span><br /><br /><br /><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;">Jadi No Tipu, No Sihir, No Mantra, No Uka</span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">2</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;">, Beladiri Ini Sudah Ada Sejak </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">1550</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;"> Dan Organisasi Ini Baru Didirikan Tahun </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link" style="font-family:arial;"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">1963</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text" style="font-family:arial;">.

Tahap berikutnya disinilah kecurangan mereka, dengan dalih yg banyak akhirnya mereka memberikan cairan khusus (metanol) pada mata atlit. Hingga akhirnya seluruh atlit kita mata nya perih dan tidak bisa berkonsentrasi.

Mengenai tanggapan keilmuan getaran yg harusnya bisa didedikasikan kepada saudara kita yang tunanetra. Awal pengembangan keilmuan getaran pun sdh kita kembangkan kepada para tunanetra. Diawali pilot project yang langsung ditangani oleh ayah saya (Mas Budi). Kurang lebih ada </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">20</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text"> orang tunanetra utk pilot project tsb. Mas Budi mengaji mereka sbg penganti ongkos praktek pijat mereka, dan saya ingat mas Budi sendiri yang menjemput dan mengantar para tunanetra tsb dari tempat mereka. Berikut nya berkembang di Jogja hingga ke Malang dan Bali. Dan terkahir adalah para tunanetra dar Oman. Hanya karena kita terbentur dana utk pengembangan pelatihan tuna netra tsb akhirnya project tsb lambat laun hilang. Pernah juga kita mengajukan kerja sama dgn Dep Sos tapi blm ada tanggapan hingga skrg. Jadi intinya MP sgt terbuka membantu utk hal kemanusiaan.</span><br /><br /><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link"><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">3</span></span><span class="currency_converter_text">.

Penandatanganan akte notaris, mencoba bentuk/model organisasi/perguruan pencaksilat yg di manage modern, lengkap dengan paten, perizinan, rancangan kerja yang bisa menghidupi perguruan dan juga para pelatihnya. Juga sekaligus mengunjungi pusat pelayanan tunanetra di San Fransisco.</p> <p><span class="currency_converter_text">Bonusnya mencoba tantangan James Randy. Pelaksanaannya di Weber University, Ogden, Utah. Bertempat di laboratorium fisika (unggulan Weber University pada fakultas fisika). Bentuk bangunan mirip planetarium, tapi pendek. Atapnya setengah bola, dari beton tebal. Kalau di dalam, handphone mati signal. Betul-betul kedap suara dan kedap gelombang elektronik. Frekuensi berapapun tidak akan bisa keluar masuk lab. Letak lab itu agak jauh dari gedung kampus, dekat dengan pangkalan pelatihan F-</span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">16</span><span class="currency_converter_text">, yang dijamin tidak kelihatan di peta. Agak misterius.</span></p> <p><span class="currency_converter_text">Masuk lab melalui pintu dan dinding berlapis. Ditengah ruangan ada kotak yg dijadikan meja, ukurannya sekitar lebar </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">1</span><span class="currency_converter_text"> meter, tinggi </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">90</span><span class="currency_converter_text"> cm, panjang </span><span class="currency_converter_text">4</span><span class="currency_converter_text">-</span><span class="currency_converter_text">5</span><span class="currency_converter_text"> meter. Ujung-ujung meja ditutup logam selebar </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">60</span><span class="currency_converter_text"> cm. Meja tersebut bermuatan listrik statis yg cukup kuat. Ada yg seperti berdengung dibawah kotak. Tidak diduga, pesilat yg di test akan duduk disitu. Menjelang pelaksanaan test, kecuali para pesilat dan Nate Zelesnick sebagai saksi, disamping para "sarjana fisika" sebagai petugas yang melakukan pengetesan, semua harus meninggalkan gedung lab. Setelah selesai, mereka keluar, dan dinyatakan gagal. Terjadi keributan kecil karena Nate protes keras. Tissue basah yang dipakai membersihkan seputar mata terasa amat pedas, sangat mengganggu konsentrasi, protes di dalam lab tidak diterima. Anggota tim, dokter Heru (mahasiswa super spesialis bedah pita suara di fakultas kedokteran Utah university, pelatih MP), masuk untuk melihat sampel tissue. Ternyata yg dipakai adalah tissue basah antiseptic yang dipakai dokter bedah militer untuk membersihkan sekitar luka sebelum operasi darurat. Sangat pedas. Apalagi kelopak mata belum kering langsung ditempel semacam lakban kedap sinar.</span></p> <p>Karena ujicoba adalah jenis paling mudah dibanding kualifikasi pesilat yg diuji (hanya mendeteksi warna-warna potongan kain yg diacak diatas kotak/meja), padahal kualifikasi kemampuan deteksi lebih dari itu, misal mendeteksi urutan setumpuk kartu bridge tanpa salah, mendeteksi narkoba yang disembunyikan, dan sebagainya). Merpati Putih kecolongan tidak waspada karena ada jebakan pada pasal-pasal yg ditandatangani.</p> <p>Kesimpulan, protes ditolak. Meski esok sorenya, mata para pesilat baru bisa sembuh dari merah gatal.</p> <p><span class="currency_converter_text">Atas bantuan dari seorang informal leader di Utah yang sekaligus sahabat dari (alm) Gus Dur, pesilat Merpati Putih diuji coba sekali lagi di bagian kedokteran mata Universitas Utah. Hasilnya berhasil </span><span class="currency_converter_text">100</span><span class="currency_converter_text">%.</span></p> <p><span class="currency_converter_text">Kenyataannya, tantangan James Randy sudah hampir </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">10</span><span class="currency_converter_text"> tahun tidak ada satupun yang berhasil dinyatakan sebagai pemenang.</span></p> <p>Kemungkinan terbesar, lab itu untuk ujicoba semacam peralatan militer yg mengganggu pancaran gelombang otak.</p> <p>Sejak itu organisasi ini dikenal sebagai hoax oleh media barat dan dianggap hanya mengajarkan tahyul dan bukan seni bela diri sesungguhnya. Beragam pendapat dan opini berkembang. Tetapi Merpati Putih legowo menerima kenyataan bahwa telah terjadi kegagalan saat uji tersebut (apapun alasannya).</p> <p>Meski demikian, justru perkembangan Merpati Putih di luar negeri menjadi semakin marak karena vibravision (getaran) merupakan suatu kebenaran yang tidak bisa ditutup-tutupi dan bisa dibuktikan. Universitas Utah sangat terkesan dan bahkan Special Force Amerika sangat tertarik dengan teknik ini. Mulai dari Jepang, Caledonia, Perancis, Belanda, Jerman, banyak yang tertarik dengan Merpati Putih terutama dengan seni olah pernafasannya. Tantangan JREF menjadi berkah tersendiri dan menambah kedewasaan Merpati Putih di dalam kiprah kemanusiaannya di dunia. Tuhan Maha Pemurah, dibalik kesulitan, tentu ada jalan.</p> <p>Atas usaha yang keras dan tekun dari kedua pewaris (Mas Poerwoto Hadi Poernomo dan Mas Budi Santoso Hadi Poernomo) Merpati Putih dikenal masyarakat secara luas.</p> <p><span class="currency_converter_text">Perkembangan Merpati Putih dari sejak berdiri tanggal </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">2</span><span class="currency_converter_text"> April </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">1963</span><span class="currency_converter_text"> sampai saat ini dapat dicatat sebagai berikut:</span></p> <ul><li><span class="currency_converter_text">Tahun </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">1968</span><span class="currency_converter_text"> mendapat kehormatan melatih anggota seksi I Korem </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">072</span><span class="currency_converter_text"> dan Anggota Bataliyon </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">403</span><span class="currency_converter_text">/ Diponegoro di Yogyakarta</span></li><li><span class="currency_converter_text">Tahun </span><span title="Convert this amount" class="currency_converter_link">1973</span><span class="currency_converter_text"> bekerja sama dengan AKABRI udara dan beberapa tenaga ahli dari fakultas kedokteran Universitas Gajah Mada dipimpin oleh Prof .Dr .Achmad Muhammad, mengadakan penelitian dari segi-segi yang menyangkut metode latihan Betako Merpati Putih.

bold;">TAIFIB</span></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Yontaifib (Batalyon Intai Amfibi - Amphibious Reconnaissance Battalion) is an elite unit in the Indonesian Marine Corps, just like Kopassus in the Army. This unit is used to be named Kipam (Komando Intai Para Amfibi - Amphibious Reconnaissance Special Forces Command).</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">To obtain a certification of amphibious reconnaissance, a regular Marine has to first pass a tough selection and then pass the nine-month rigorous training program that contains the most difficult curriculum. Thus, this amphibious recon certificate is very similar to commando certificate in Kopassus.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">To become a Yontaifib troop, a candidate is selected from the Marine Corps who has already fulfilled the thorough mental and physical requirements, and who at least has actively served the corps for two years. The certification of amphibious reconnaissance is so difficult that the passing rate of these candidates in each class is only ten percent.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">One of the most challenging exercises in this certification program is to swim for three kilometers while the hands tied behind their backs and their feet bound together. Due to the hands and feet being tied the swimmer must learn to relax and move his legs and feet in a fluid motion similar to that of a dolphin. This type of training is designed to increase the candidates confidence in the water and also allow him to survive if he is caught by the enemy and must escape.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">The escape experience by an American POW who was hog-tied and then tossed into the Mekong River to drown. He was able to survive despite being bound and proved that a man can swim with his hands and legs tied if he puts his mind to it. The technique was adopted by the US Navy SEALs and still used to this day. Other Naval Special Warfare units soon followed and now is a standard part of selection and training.</span><br /><br /><br /><h2 style="font-family:arial;"><span class="mw-headline" id="Weaponry_and_Equipment">Weaponry and Equipment</span></h2><br /><span style="font-family:arial;"> * Handgun : SIG P226, Pindad P1, Pindad P2</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">* Submachine Gun : IMI Uzi, Daewoo K7</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">* Assault Rifle : Pindad SS-1, Steyr AUG, CZ-58</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">* Sniper Rifle : Pindad SPR-1, HK SG-1, SIG SG-550 Sniper</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">* Machine Gun : FN Minimi, Ultimax 100, Daewoo K3, Steyr AUG-HBAR</span><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style=";font-family:arial;font-size:130%;" ><span style="font-weight: bold;">IN BAHASA INDONESIA / DALAM BAHASA INDONESIA<br /><br /><br />Batalyon Intai Amfibi</span></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Batalyon Intai Amfibi atau disingkat YonTaifib adalah satuan elit dalam Korps Marinir seperti halnya Kopassus dalam jajaran TNI Angkatan Darat. Dahulunya satuan ini dikenal dengan nama KIPAM (Komando Intai Para Amfibi). Untuk menjadi anggota YonTaifib, calon diseleksi dari prajurit marinir yang memenuhi persyaratan mental, fisik, kesehatan, dan telah berdinas aktif minimal dua tahun. Salah satu program latihan bagi siswa pendidikan intai amfibi, adalah berenang dalam kondisi tangan dan kaki terikat, sejauh 3 km. Dari satuan ini kemudian direkrut lagi prajurit terbaik untuk masuk kedalam Detasemen Jala Mengkara, pasukan elitnya TNI Angkatan Laut.</span><br /><br /><br /><h2 style="font-family:arial;"><span class="mw-headline" id="Sejarah">Sejarah</span></h2><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Sejak berdirinya KKO AL setiap penugasan dirasakan perlunya data-data intelejen, serta pasukan khusus yang terlatih dan mampu melaksanakan kegiatan khusus yang tidak dapat dikerjakan oleh satuan biasa dalam rangka keberhasilan tugas. Menjawab kebutuhan tersebut, pada tanggal 13 Maret 1961 berdasarkan Surat Keputusan (SK) Komandan KKO AL No.47/KP/KKO/1961 tanggal 13 Maret 1961, tentang pembentukan KIPAM. Pada tanggal 13 Maret 1961, KIPAM berdiri dibawah Yon Markas Posko Armatim - I, para perintis berdirinya KIPAM adalah Bapak Sumardi, Bapak Untung Suratman, Bapak Moelranto Wiryohuboyo, dan Bapak Ali Abdullah. Pada tanggal 25 Juli 1970 KIPAM berubah menjadi Yon lntai Para Amfibi. Tanggal 17 November 1971 Yon lntai Para Amfibi berubah menjadi Satuan lntai Amfibi, pada akhirnya berubah menjadi Batalyon lntai Amfibi atau disingkat Yon Taifib Mar dibawah Resimen Bantuan Tempur Korps Marinir. Seiring dengan perkembangan Korps Marinir dengan peresmian Pasmar I SK Kasal No. Skep/08/111/2001 tanggal 12 Maret 2001 tentang Yon Taifib Marinir tidak lagi dibawah Resimen Bantuan Tempur Korps Marinir (Menbanpurmar), akan tetapi langsung berada dibawah Pasmar. Melihat lingkup penugasan serta kemampuannya, akhirnya Taifib secara resmi disahkan menjadi Pasukan Khusus TNI AL. Hal ini sesuai dengan SK Kasal No. Skep/1857/XI/2003 tanggal 18 November 2003 tentang Pemberian Status Pasukan Khusus kepada Intai Amfibi Korps Marinir.</span><br /><br /><br /><h2 style="font-family:arial;"><span class="mw-headline" id="Tugas_pokok">Tugas pokok</span></h2><span style="font-family:arial;">YonTaifib mempunyai tugas pokok membina dan menyediakan kekuatan serta membina kemampuan unsur-unsur amfibi maupun pengintaian darat serta tugas-tugas operasi khusus dalam rangka pelaksanaan operasi pendaratan amfibi, operasi oleh satuan tugas TNI AL atau tugas-tugas operasi lainnya.</span><br /><br /><br /><h2 style="font-family:arial;"><span class="mw-headline" id="Ciri_prajurit_Taifib">Ciri prajurit Taifib</span></h2><br /><span style="font-family:arial;"> 1.

MP was developed in the 1550’s and passed down through the generations from Sultan Prabu Amangkurat of the Mataram Kingdom to his Heirs. For over 400 years MP was rarely if ever seen by anyone outside of Kraton, the Sultan’s Palace in Yogkyakarta, Central Java. The Merpati Putih tradition is led by the 11th and 12th generations heirs of the Sultan’s knowledge</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">In 1963 the Indonesian Public was ablaze with riots and civil unrest against the government. Already into the struggle for several years, hate and violence were constantly boiling over onto the innocent. At that time the 10th Generation Heir to the MP knowledge, Raden Saring Hadipoernomo and his 11th generation heirs, known as Mas Poeng and Mas Budi (the great teachers of MP) decided that it was time to release their family secrets for the benefit of all of their people.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Now all the people could learn to heal and defend themselves while at the same time becoming more loving, peaceful and spiritually aware. Today over 1,000,000 Indonesian people have studied and benefited from the MP method and with over 100,000 active members, MP is not only an outstanding member of the Indonesian Pencak Silat Federation (I.P.S.I.), the World Pencak Silat Federation (PERSILAT), & Martial Arts Federation for World Peace (M.A.F.W.P), but also the standard training for the Indonesian Air Force, Army Special Forces, Commando Paratroopers, S.W.A.T. Teams and Presidential Secret Service.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Merpati Putih, or MP for short, is the Indonesian Royal system of Pencak Silat. Pencak Silat is a general term for the Indonesian Martial Arts (like Kung Fu-for Chinese Arts or Karate for Japanese arts). There are over 700 unique styles of Pencak Silat native to Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore and Brunei Darussalam. </div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Merpati Putih is different than any Martial Art ever seen ANYWHERE in the Western Hemisphere before it's public release. What makes MP special is the unique ability to quickly Develop, Harness, and Control large Amounts of Tenaga Dalam or Inner Power -(also called Chi, Ki, Prana, Subtle Energy, or Bio Energy)... Using a very specific and patented series of body postures, breathing techniques and meditation in a non-religious, non-sectarian, biological way, Merpati Putih is truly one of the world's rarities that allows its practitioners to feel this energy within themselves and use it to improve their lives very soon after beginning.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Merpati Putih teaches people how to use their power for many different benefits including : </div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">(1)-Rebalancing Chronic Aches, Pains, & Illnesses (i.e. Asthma, Chronic Fatigue, Back & Neck Pain, Joint Pain) from within,</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">(2)-Noticeably Increasing Overall Health, Aerobic & Anaerobic Stamina & has been shown to lower Blood Pressure & Cholesterol, </div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">(3)-Developing Razor Sharp Mental Focus & Concentration, </div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">(4)-Protecting ones own body from injury, </div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">(5)-Increasing Healing Ability to shorten Recuperation/Regeneration time</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br />(6)-Extremely effective Unarmed Self Defense for Men and Women of all ages.<br /> </div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Translated, Merpati Putih means "White Dove", the symbol of Peace & Justice for all of Humanity.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">We are an outstanding member of the Martial Arts Federation For World Peace & MP training helps develop a peaceful demeanor with personal & cultural diversity and acceptance.

MP Internal Power building & management is unmatched, but we pride ourselves in doing that which is right for our lives with a peaceful heart and a silent mind.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Merpati Putih is not based on having power over others, but rather, power over ourselves to make our dreams come true and our lives better in every way. </div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b>MERPATI PUTIH CREED</b></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">“Mersudi Patitising Tindak Pusakane Titising Hening”</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">"To Seek & To Find That Which Is Right, Doing In Silence"</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">As each person’s life, situation and beliefs are unique, Merpati Putih is the perfect Martial Art and Fitness System for today’s active adult who seeks to learn more about themselves, what they are really capable of and how they can help others without impinging on one’s personal life perspectives. </div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">The MP creed means that all MP members should do what is right for themselves, their family and the benefit of others with a pure heart and a silent mind. Improving ones self, serving others, carrying Love in one’s heart and doing so with a mind that is uncluttered and unlimited by self doubt, preconceived notions and prejudices so that life can be lived moment-to-moment, and every moment enjoyed to it’s fullest. This is the cornerstone of everything Merpati Putih.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b>ATHLETIC ADVENTURE PENCAK SILAT PROGRAM</b></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">There are martial arts and there's Merpati Putih, but there IS no comparison!</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">The MP Athletic adventure program is a complete life enhancing art of Self Protection and Spiritual Growth. Members are able to develop very quickly and learn in a step-by-step program combining a perfect symbiosis of 5 skill branches.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">- Fitness, Martial Arts and Body Coordination (Gerakan)</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">- Personal Energy and Internal Power Management (Tenaga Dalam)</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">- Combat Principles & Concepts (Beladiri)</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">- Energy Healing (Pengobatan)</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">- Electromagnetoreception and Vibrational Awareness (Getaran)</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /><br /><b>Fitness, Martial Arts and Body Coordination (Gerakan)</b></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Movement studies begin with becoming aware of and coordinating ones own body. As coordination and control increase, members are introduced step-by-step to offensive and defensive striking, controlling, and restraint techniques, concepts and principles. The movements of MP were developed by Princess Rejoso-- Generation 3--to be extremely effective without the use of brute strength and force. Based on the Bio-mechanics and strengths of a woman’s body, the concepts, principles, and techniques taught in MP center around unlocking and projecting our energy then learning to control the direction and intensity. The movements of Merpati Putih are very fluid and dynamic. They may even resemble some type of dance, but behind the beautiful and delicate actions are the keys to an absolutely incredible and potentially devastating personal power.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b>Bio Electric Energy and Internal Power Management (Tenaga Dalam)</b></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Breath is the most important key to sustaining life. A person can survive without Food, Water, or Shelter for some time, but several minutes without breathing is almost certain death. Utilizing the proprietary Merpati Putih breathing techniques allows MP Members to generate amazing amounts of Inner Power or Bio Electric Energy and focus it for many different uses including many incredible feats unique to MP Training. After a sufficient amount of Tenaga Dalam (Inner Power) has been generated, Members are taught techniques to manage, focus, and direct their Inner Power to accomplish many amazing mind over matter tasks ranging from rebalancing and healing self and others, to projecting a shield to prevent injury and using the bare body or even concentrating energy into flexible inanimate objects such as towels, belts or rolled up newspapers to break poured concrete, stone, ice, iron and steel, to the incredible lighting of a 4 foot neon light bulb without electricity. At higher levels it is common for members to focus and control their Power to such an extent that they are able to break steel bars in slow motion or using only 1 pinkie finger or smashing leaf spring suspensions from small trucks with their forehead. Breaking is only a small part of the energy applications possible through MP, but an excellent and fun way to test focus and projection of Bio-Energy with a definitive black and white result and instantaneous feedback.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /><br /><b>Combat Principles and Concepts (Beladiri)</b></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Merpati Putih Combat and Self Defense was created in the world’s most densely populated landmass, in a tribal warfare culture. Having to fight for life, property and possessions has almost always been a necessity for Indonesian people. One difference between Indonesian warfare and most other cultures is that the King or leader would always be the first one into battle. Their responsibility was to lead their troops into the fight, not just give orders from a safe and secure command post. MP combat was developed to ensure survival in the worst possible conditions. Evolving over several hundred years to be so brutally effective, and in modern times to match a society that is not always walking on the life or death edge, MP members develop a full understanding of human bio mechanics and bio reactions to develop control of an attacker. Understanding the concepts and principles of MP, a member is able to instantly create, modify, and manipulate almost any technique to suit almost any situation. Utilizing Bio energy to enhance striking, leverage, joint manipulation and pressure points, MP members learn a full spectrum of control from simple restraint, to causing temporary injury, permanent injury or maiming, and all the way to the unfortunate last resort of life or death. MP is a life art – not just a combative, and respect for life and the consequences of conflict are heavily stressed in MP. The destructive capability of Merpati Putih is ASTOUNDING, so a clean mind, pure heart and personal control are critical to walking the MP Path. All member candidates are personally interviewed and screened by a qualified MP Instructor. MP does not teach violent people, bullies, or social predators of any type!</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /><br /><b>Energy Healing (Pengobatan)</b></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">MP Energy Healing is absolutely incredible, based on the scientific fact that we are beings of electric energy. Every function that our brains execute and perceive are simply electric pulses moving through our body. In the medical care professions they use electric pulse measuring devices (EEG,ECG,EKG, etc…) to monitor body function. When there is no body function they use defribulators to give the heart an electric jump-start. T raditional acupuncture/acupressure theory states that almost every pain sensation or dis-ease is nothing more than an imbalance in our energy flow. MP energy healing is designed around several ways of general and site-specific energy balance. Having more bioelectricity can greatly increase the ability of our cells to regenerate naturally. Overall self-healing begins early in training. As we increase our fitness, circulation and bio energy, our energetic vibration frequencies increase and our cells begin to act healthier by cleaning and replacing themselves faster. Many members have reported the rebalancing of many chronic conditions (ex…Bad backs, arms, legs, chronic fatigue/fibromyalgia, high blood pressure/cholesterol, PMS, impotence) and losing considerable amounts of weight within 3 months of beginning MP. At this point members are taught to direct their healing energy to specific parts of the body and also to control and dissipate pain. Most members notice that healing of new injuries usually occurs almost/or twice as fast as before. Healing others begins with the ability to detect pain and imbalanced energy flow vibration patterns within the body and the aura, and then to rebalance flow with--or without--touch. Whether the imbalance is an ordinary bruise or a much more complex condition, bioenergetic healing is very possible even at great distances. While we make no medical claims, MP Practitioners across the world report similar health and healing benefits.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /><br /><b>ElectroMagnetoReception (EMR) and Vibrational Awareness (GETARAN)</b></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">All humans and animals do possess a 6th sense. If you have ever felt someone’s eyes on you and were correct when you intuitively turned your head and checked the direction of your feeling – you have experienced one example of this 6th sense. All things physical and even the essence of thought are fundamentally all forms of energy, meaning that all molecules of matter are composed of tightly arranged atoms with the basic component parts being protons and neutrons (nucleus), with electrons cycling around them. Each different type of matter is arranged differently and the component’s cycle or vibrate differently. Being bioelectric beings, we do have the ability to perceive these vibrational energies in a reproducible and scientifically valid way. Using ILMU GETARAN or the science of vibration, many members are able to sense, differentiate, and identify the unique vibrational frequencies of almost anything. This 6th sense can be developed to the point that a blindfolded or even completely blind since birth person is able to distinguish the size, shape, color, texture, speed and direction of travel of any object. Advanced practitioners are able to detect danger and fight full contact, read, draw, watch TV, use computers and cell phones, play ball, accurately shoot targets, or even drive a car through heavy traffic at the speed limit without physical sight!. In 2003 a caravan of blindfolded and blind (also blindfolded) MP members drove from Bogor to Jakarta under the constant and close supervision of representatives from MURI (Indonesian Museum of Records) and Guinness. </div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Visually impaired persons and anyone who works with visually impaired persons are welcome to contact MP USA regarding pilot training projects. Until this ability is proven medically, there will be no charge for training of the visually impaired. Please email detailing your name, profession and address and hopefully we can start making a difference in the lives of the blind near you.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b><span style="font-size: small;">PERSILAT Competition</span></b></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">PERSILAT is the World Pencak Silat Federation. As the Official North and South America Affiliated Member of PERSILAT, Merpati Putih USA is responsible for uniting Silat systems in this region under the umbrella of PERSILAT in order to promote brotherhood between pesilat (pencak silat practitioners) and to standardize competition amongst these stylists under the PERSILAT Competition Rules and Regulations. Pencak Silat competition is similar to many martial arts competitions held within the Western Hemisphere with forms (empty handed and with weapon) and sparring. The main differences are the incredible diversity of martial arts being displayed, more lenient fighting rules and target areas in sparring and most importantly true and honest brotherhood and kinship between practitioners of different systems. Pencak Silat, no matter which style, differs from any and all other genre of martial arts (i.e. Karate, TKD, Jiu Jitsu, Aikido, etc…) in that they are all combative-based yet focus on the beauty of the human form and its movement potentials in performing a martial ‘art’ that allows each individual varying degrees of personal freedom in interpretation and performance rather than just a system of fighting. Mental/Spiritual and Moral development is a cornerstone of Pencak Silat training and while many Silat systems are religiously-based, Merpati Putih is not, nor are most systems. Honesty, Fairness, Peace, Nobility, Truth and Responsibility are quintessential to PERSILAT Membership and MP USA invites ALL pesilat within North and South America to contact them to become a PERSILAT Junior Member so that ALL Pencak Silat stylists will have a common ground and the ability to know one another and help spread the practices of the various beautiful and effective martial arts of the Nusantara Archipelago (Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore & Brunei Darussalam). PERSILAT Competitions are being scheduled in Salt Lake City, Utah and interested Pencak Silat school owners are welcome to inquire as to membership of their school(s) and participation of themselves and their students.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /><br /><b>MP RANKING STRUCTURE</b></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">The ranking structure of the MP Athletic program is very unique in that we do not have white belts, green belts, red belts, black belts, etc. The first MP Member Promise is “To Trust and to Believe in the Universal Oneness of ALL Things within the Creator.” As we in MP realize that as humans we are all equal, MP members wear a belt of only one color, Red. As experience increases and testing takes place a small colored stripe near one end of the belt changes in accordance with the full spectrum of the rainbow. While the stripe changes color with our experience level, the belt always remains the same so that no matter if one has been practicing MP for 1 year or 20, we always remember that no one is better or worse than anyone else and that we are all here to help each other become the best people we can be in every way. </div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">The family atmosphere, camaraderie and brotherhood between MP members from all walks of life is truly unique and egotism, superiority and the “I’m better than you” attitude so prevalent in everyday society and many martial arts is nonexistent. Peace, Understanding, Acceptance and Helpfulness are found throughout every MP Member of every rank and as we become more aware and we gain experience, these attributes increase dramatically. Typically, a Member must remain in each of the basic levels (Dasar 1 thru Balik 2) for at least 6 months, with Senior Levels (Kombinasi 1 thru Kesegeran) requiring a minimum of 1 year’s experience before testing can take place. Below is the Merpati Putih ranking structure:</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">• Dasar I, </div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">• Tingkat Dasar II, </div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">• Tingkat Balik I, </div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">• Tingkat Balik II, </div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">• Tingkat Kombinasi I, </div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">• Tingkat Kombinasi II, </div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">• Tingkat Khusus I </div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">• Tingkat Khusus II </div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">• Tingkat Khusus III </div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">• Tingkat Penyegaran,</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">• Tingkat Inti I</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">• Tingkat Inti II</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>IN BAHASA INDONESIA / DALAM BAHASA INDONESIA</b></span></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>MERPATI PUTIH</b></span></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Merpati Putih (MP) merupakan salah satu perguruan pencak silat bela diri Tangan Kosong (PPS Betako) dan merupakan salah satu aset budaya bangsa, mulai terbentuk aliran jenis beladiri ini pada sekitar tahun 1550-an dan perlu dilestarikan serta dikembangkan selaras dengan perkembangan dan kemajuan ilmu pengetahuan serta teknologi dewasa ini.

Lalu setelah Grat ke tiga, R. Ay. Djojoredjoso ilmu yang diturunkan dipecah menurut spesialisasinya sendiri-sendiri, seni beladiri ini mempunyai dua saudara lainnya. yaitu bergelar Gagak Samudro dan Gagak Seto. Gagak Samudro diwariskan ilmu pengobatan, sedangkan Gagak Seto ilmu sastra. Dan untuk seni beladiri diturunkan kepada Gagak Handoko (Grat IV). Dari Gagak Handoko inilah akhirnya turun temurun ke Mas Saring lalu Mas Poeng dan Mas Budi menjadi PPS Betako Merpati Putih. Hingga kini, kedua saudara seperguruan lainnya tersebut tidak pernah diketahui keberadaan ilmunya dan masih tetap dicari hingga saat ini ditiap daerah di tanah air guna menyatukannya kembali.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Pada awalnya ilmu beladiri Pencak Silat ini hanya khusus diajarkan kepada Komando Pasukan Khusus ditiap kesatuan ABRI dan Polisi serta Pasukan Pengawalan Kepresidenan (Paspampres).</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Didirikan pada tanggal 2 April 1963 di Yogyakarta, mempunyai kurang lebih 35 cabang dengan kolat (kelompok latihan) sebanyak 415 buah (menurut data tahun 1993) yang tersebar di seluruh Nusantara dan saat ini mempunyai anggota sebanyak satu juta orang lulusan serta yang masih aktif sekitar 100 ribu orang dan tersebar di seluruh Indonesia.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Sang Guru Merpati Putih adalah Bapak Saring Hadi Poernomo, sedangkan pendiri Perguruan dan Guru Besar sekaligus pewaris ilmu adalah Purwoto Hadi Purnomo (Mas Poeng) dan Budi Santoso Hadi Purnomo (Mas Budi) sebagai Guru Besar terakhir yaitu generasi ke sebelas (Grat XI).</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">PPS Betako Merpati Putih berasal dari seni beladiri keraton.

Namun karena minat dari luar negeri sangat banyak dan antusias, MP mulai membuka diri untuk menerima anggota dari luar negeri. Adalah Nate Zeleznick dan Mike Zeleznick sebagai orang berkulit putih pertama yang diajarkan pencak silat ini pada tahun 1999 dan menjadi Guru Merpati Putih Pertama di Amerika. Pada awal bulan Oktober 2000 Mas Pung dan Mas Budi meresmikan American School of Merpati Putih yang pertama berlokasi di Ogden City Mall, Utah. MP adalah satu-satunya Pencak Silat yang diselidiki secara ilmiah mengenai masalah adanya tenaga dalam.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b>Beladiri Tangan Kosong (Betako)</b></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Latihan Merpati Putih mementingkan aspek beladiri tanpa senjata/tangan kosong. Bagian-bagian tubuh manusia dapat digunakan sebagai senjata yang tak kalah ampuhnya dengan senjata sesungguhnya. Tetapi walaupun begitu pada anggota Merpati Putih secara ekstra kurikuler (bukan kurikulum latihan) diperkenalkan senjata, sifat dan karakteristik senjata, cara menghadapi dan sebagainya.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b>Tujuan</b></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">PPS Betako Merpati Putih adalah salah satu warisan ilmu beladiri karya nenek moyang Indonesia asli, dan bertujuan menempa kepribadian anggota-anggotanya agar berwatak dan berkepribadian kuat, harmonis, dinamis serta patriotis, sesuai filsafat Indonesia, yaitu Pancasila.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b>Jurus dan Tenaga Dalam</b></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Merpati Putih menggunakan tenaga dalam asli manusia, dengan permainan napas. Pada orang biasa, tenaga asli tersebut dapat dilihat dan digunakan hanya pada saat orang bersangkutan dalam kondisi terdesak saja. Misal: melompat pagar saat anjing mengejarnya di jalan yang buntu. Dalam keadaan kembali normal / tidak terdesak, orang tersebut serasa tidak percaya telah melompati pagar yang tinggi tersebut. Maka di dalam Pencak Silat ini, bagaimana menggunakan tenaga ekstra asli manusia tersebut pada saat normal, kapanpun dan dimanapun.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Secara normal sel dalam tubuh manusia menghasilkan zat yang bernama Adenosine Triphospate (A.T.P) yang merupakan cadangan energi dalam tubuh. Maka dengan bantuan teknik olah nafas, tenaga tersembunyi manusia itu dapat di latih untuk diperoleh dan dikumpulkan di dalam tubuh. Ada banyak Jurus (teknik olah) Pernapasan di dalam Pencak Silat ini diantaranya Pernapasan Pembinaan dan Pernapasan Pengolahan. Juga Ada beberapa Teknik Jurus diantaranya adalah Rangkaian Gerakan Terikat (RGT) dan Rangkaian Gerakan Bebas (RGB) Selain itu juga ada beberapa Teknik Langkah dan Gerak, diantaranya adalah Langkah Praktis dan Gerak Praktis.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Selain dari Diri Sendiri (energi badan), pengambilan energi getaran di Pencak Silat Merpati Putih ini dapat pula diambil dari alam seperti dari Bumi (energi tanah juga pohon yang berusia amat tua), atau bahkan energi dari Angkasa (energi bintang, matahari ataupun bulan.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Beberapa tahun belakangan, ilmu tenaga dalam Merpati Putih yang mengandung energi dan getaran ini telah diselidiki lebih jauh secara ilmu pengetahuan dan dikembangkan juga untuk pengobatan serta untuk kepentingan orang tuna netra, agar mereka bisa membaca, membedakan dan mengenali warna serta dapat mempermudah segala aktivitas lainnya sehari-hari.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b>Tingkatan dan Latihan</b></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Ada dua belas tingkatan di dalam PPS Betako Merpati Putih ini.

Setiap kali latihan memakan waktu sekitar kurang-lebih dua jam. Pada tiap tahun, yaitu tepatnya setiap Tahun Baru 1 Suro atau 1 Muharam, seluruh anggota dari Sabang sampai Merauke diperbolehkan mengikuti dan berkumpul bersama-sama anggota lainnya di Yogyakarta, tepatnya di pantai Parang Kusumo untuk latihan bersama dari semua Tingkatan. Juga diadakan Napak Tilas di daerah Bukit Manoreh. Acara ini sudah merupakan tradisi di dalam perguruan pencak silat ini yang berguna untuk mengetahui dan dapat bertukar pikiran antar anggota satu dengan anggota lainnya.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b>NAPAS DASAR PENYALURAN</b></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Setelah empat bulan belajar mengolah nafas dasar di tingkat dasar satu kini saatnya melakukan ujian kenaikan tingkat ke dasar dua. Pagi hari Minggu di bulan Juni 1993 dengan melakukan maraton telanjang kaki murid-murid PPS Merpati Putih mulai berlari meninggalkan Gedung Depdiknas Senayan menuju bundaran Hotel Indonesia. Jarak satu kali arah ini kurang lebih 4km. Lalu berputar kembali ke Senayan. Jadi begitu balik sampai di Gedung Depdiknas Senayan jarak yang ditempuh menjadi 8 km.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Masih dalam keletihan yang begitu menguras tenaga, setiap murid PPS Merpati Putih mengambil gagang pompa dragon ukuran 1 R- 2 R , beton buis cor-coran semen, balok es, kayu jati ukuran ubin 20×20 cm, kikir besi dan menaruh di tempat tatakan yang telah disediakan. Sebelum giliran memukul dan mematahkan benda keras itu, hidup sehat reiki melakukan olah nafas penyaluran sebagai bekal menghimpun tenaga kembali yang telah hilang karena berlari maraton untuk persiapan memukul benda keras itu.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Dengan mengambil sikap kuda-kuda tangguh, tangan kanan kiri dikejangkan sambil tarik nafas melalui hidung dan buang melalui mulut mendesis sebanyak 3 kali ulangan, konsentrasi kepada sasaran yang hendak dipecahkan serta memvisualkan bahwa benda keras itu adalah benda lembek yang mudah patah, maka satu persatu murid PPS Merpati Putih melakukan pemukulan benda keras itu dan semuanya bisa dipecahkan atau dipatahkan.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Atraksi mematahkan benda keras ini merupakan ujian standar di setiap tingkatan PPS Merpati Putih di samping ujian teori tertulis. Di setiap tingkatan selalu dilatih mengolah nafas dengan postur tubuh membungkuk, bersimpuh, push-up, kaki selonjor kedepan baik kaki kanan atau kiri. Juga posisi push-up miring badan (perhatikan gerakan Yoga) yang bermacam-macam gerakannya, semua itu dilatih dengan menahan nafas-menarik nafas-tahan nafas-membuang nafas-tahan nafas lagi sambil badan dikejangkan mulai dari leher hingga kedua kaki sambil kedua mata ditutup.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Setelah kita menguasai nafas dasar maka latihan berikutnya adalah nafas penyaluran, dimana kita menyalurkan tenaga yang telah kita peroleh sewaktu pelaksanaan latihan nafas dasar dengan menyalurkannya ke anggota badan sendiri ( kaki, tangan dan kepala) dengan membuat gerakan yang sangat perlahan serta penuh konsentrasi. Adapun nafas penyaluran ada 5 macam yaitu:</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">1. Nafas Garuda</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">2. Nafas Dorong Tarik.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">3. Nafas Kombinasi.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">4. Nafas Pengarahan.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">5. Nafas Listrik.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Dalam melaksanakan latihan penyaluran ini yang perlu diperhatikan ialah selama membuat gerakan, nafas ditahan di dada, sekali tarik nafas dapat melakukan beberapa kali gerakan sesuai kemampuan kita dan tidak memaksakan diri.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">1. Nafas Garuda > dengan sikap duduk bersila tumpang kaki, tangan dilipat di depan dada, telapak tangan saling mendorong. Lalu buang nafas melalui mulut-tahan nafas 5 sampai 10 detik (sesuai kemampuan murid) di dada lalu pejamkan mata kedua telapak tangan saling mendorong kedepan sekuat mungkin (rasakan seakan-akan di depan kita ada pintu baja yang tebal sulit dibuka). Sambil terus mendorong telapak tangan kanan/kiri mulai direntangkan ke samping kanan/kiri sepelan mungkin dan seluruh badan tetap kejang menahan nafas. Ketika rentangan ke-2 tangan sudah di kanan/kiri badan tarik lagi kebelakang badan sehingga dada terbuka lebar, mulai gerakan pelan-pelan kedepan dada mengulangi gerakan semula, masih tetap tahan nafas badan tetap kejang mulai pelann-pelan membuang nafas berdesis melalui mulut.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">2. Nafas Dorong Tarik > dengan sikap badan berdiri dengan kuda-kuda tengah, kedua tangan lurus keatas, telapak tangan menghadap kedepan. Pelan-pelan badan dibungkukkan sambil membuang nafas melalui mulut-tahan nafas 5 detik-mulai tegakkan badan sambil tarik nafas melalui hidung-tahan nafas didada dan kepalkan tangan/jari ruas per ruas. Badan tetap mengejang pejamkan mata, tarik tangan kebawah pelan-pelan dan tangan mengepal di samping pinggang menghadap ke atas. Dorong tangan lurus kedepan sambil diputar sehingga kepalan tangan menghadap ke bawah. Bayangkan seolah-olah kita mendorong barang yang sangat berat. Tarik kembali kebelakang seolah-olah menarik barang yang sangat berat. Lakukan dorong tarik beberapa kali (semampu kita) lalu buang nafas dengan posisi mendorong tangan ke depan.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">3. Nafas Kombinasi > dengan sekap berdiri dengan kuda-kuda tengah. Kedua tangan lurus keatas posisi telapak tangan menghadap kedepan. Lalu bungkukkan badan badan sambil buang nafas-tahan 5 detik. Pelan-pelan tegakkan badan sambil tarik nafas-tahan nafas di dada dan kepalkan jari tangan ruas per ruas mata lalu dipejamkan.Tarik tangan kebawah pelan-pelan dan seluruh tubuh tetap kejang sambil tangan mengepal di samping pinggang menghadap ke atas. Dorong tangan kedepan sambil badan diputar sehingga kepalan tangan menghadap ke bawah. Buka kepalan tangan ruas per ruas dengan tangan direnangkan ke samping sepelan mungkin dan seluruh badan tetap kejang. Lalu liukkan tangan sejauh mungkin ke belakang kemudian didorong ke depan kembali melalui samping pinggang. Setelah tangan lurus, kembali dikepalkan ruas per ruas. Kepalan tangan ditarik lagi ke samping pinggang sambil diputar sehingga kepalan tangan menghadap keatas. Pelan-pelan tangan didorong kedepan mengulangi gerakan semula masih dalam kondisi tahan nafas semampunya lalu nafas dibuang melalui mulut.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">4. Nafas Pengarahan > dengan posisi berdiri kuda-kuda depan kaki kiri di depan. Tangan kanan disorong tiga kali ke depan, jari-jari terbuka lalu tangan kiri berada di depan. Posisi telapak tangan serong ke dalam. Mulai tarik nafas-tahan 5 detik- tangan kanan ditarik ke atas digenggam ruas per ruas. Lalu tangan dibawa ke bawah dibuka ruas per ruas untuk merasakan apakah seluruh tubuh sudah cukup tegang/kaku. Berikutnya jari tangan digenggam ruas per ruas lagi setelah itu dibuka lagi ruas per ruas. Masih dalam posisi menahan nafas semampunya. Jika dirasa sudah cukup mampu lalu buang nafas melalui mulut mendesissambil tangan di bawa keatas.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">5. Nafas Listrik > dengan posisi berdiri dengan kuda-kuda tengah, kedua tangan lurus ke atas telapak tangan menghadap ke depan. Pelan-pelan bungkukkan badan sambil buang nafas melalui mulut-tahan 5 detik-lalu tegakkan badan sambil tarik nafas melalui hidung-tahan nafas di dada kepalkan jari tangan ruas per ruas diikuti mata terpejam. Silangkan kedua lengan di depan dada angan kanan di dalam, tangan kiri di luar. Tangan menghadap ke dalam. Bungkukkan badan sehingga kepala lebih rendah dari pantat. Putarkan tangan sehingga tangan menghadap ke bawah. Dua lengan tidak saling bersentuhan. Tahan posisi ini semampunya sambil menahan nafas.Jika dirasa sudah cukup pelan-pelan buang nafas melalui mulut mendesis. Apabila kita sudah menguasai nafas dasar maka untuk mempermahir nafas penyaluran tidak harus mengulangi seluruh rangkaian dari pola nafas dasar. Semakin lama kita mampu menahan nafas, semakin pelan kita melaksanakan gerakan dan semakin keras kita mengejangkan seluruh otot tubuh, akan mendapatkan manfaat yang lebih besar untuk kesehatan tubuh asalkan dalam latihan ini tidak memaksakan diri. Setiap membuang nafas bersaman dengan membuka kepalan tangan.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Dalam perjalanannya, masyarakat umum lebih mengenal PPS Betako Merpati Putih(Merpati Putih) karena kemampuan melakukan teknik pemukulan, pemecahan, penghancuran benda-benda keras atau dengan ilmu getarannya dapat membantu kaum tuna netra agar lebih hidup normal layaknya orang biasa, atau dengan metode pernafasannya dapat menyembuhkan berbagai penyakit dan dapat meningkatkan kebugaran seseorang. Namun dari hasil latihan untuk tujuan-tujuan di atas, ada salah satunya dapat diaplikasikan, di antaranya anggota tubuh yang dilatih dapat meredam pukulan baik langsung dengan tangan, kaki, dan badan maupun tidak langsung dengan benda tertentu (contohnya batang pompa, kayu, dan lain-lain) Metode pelatihan Merpati Putih merupakan metode olahraga murni bukan karena ilmu sihir, puasa, ajimat dan tidak ada mantera-mantera. Yang dibutuhkan adalah latihan senam pernafasan dengan kondisi pada saat tertentu harus mengeluarkan nafas sebanyak mungkin dan pada saat tertentu harus menghisap nafas sebanyakbanyaknya, yang ditahan di dada dan ditekan ke bawah perut (pola pernafasan dasar) untuk beberapa saat. Secara berkesinambungan dijalankan juga inti program latihan yang diarahkan untuk mengaktifkan organ-organ tubuh melalui pengejangan otot (kontraksi) yang diikuti penciptaan kondisi kekurangan oksigen (anaerobik). Dengan latihan ini akan diperoleh :</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">1. Lancarnya peredaran darah</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">2. Pengendoran syaraf</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">3. Pengaktifan metabolisme</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">4. Kelenturan tubuh</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">5. Memperkuat serabut otot</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Pada latihan senam pernafasan dilakukan juga program latihan konsentrasi dan penyaluran. Program latihan ini diarahkan untuk melatih agar organ-organ tubuh dapat bekerjasama menuruti kemauan otak. Organorgan tubuh dilatih untuk merasakan tandatanda biologis yang diterima dan menyalurkannya ke arah anggota tubuh yang dikehendaki untuk digunakan sebagai energi keluaran untuk keperluan internal maupun ekternal.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Senam Pernafasan untuk Mendapatkan Tenaga</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Secara garis besar metode pelatihan dan pengolahan tenaga dari senam pernafasan di Merpati Putih dapat dibedakan menjadi dua bagian, yaitu :</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">1. Senam Pernafasan Pengolahan</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Fungsi dari Senam Pernafasan Pengolahan adalah membangkitkan tenaga yang berasal dari pusat tenaga dan terletak di antara pusar dan kemaluan (ada yang menyebutnya kundalini, prana, chi, dan lain sebagainya) selanjutnya disalurkan ke bagian anggota badan yang dikehendaki. Pada Senam Pernafasan Pengolahan pola nafas dilakukan dengan membuang nafas melalui mulut (berdesis), menahannya dalam beberapa detik, lalu menarik nafas melalui hidung, menahannya di dada, pindahkan ke perut, dan seterusnya. Setiap kondisi menahan nafas di dada ataupun di perut disebut dengan saf. Lama setiap saf pada umumnya 5 sampai 7 detik. Batas maksimal 7 saf, artinya total menahan nafas menjadi 35 atau 49 detik, terdiri dari 4 saf dada serta 3 saf perut.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">2. Senam Pernafasan Pembinaan</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Senam ini diarahkan untuk pengaktifkan tenaga yang sudah di salurkan hasil dari proses Senam Pernafasan Pengolahan dan selanjutnya dapat menggunakannya sesuai dengan tujuan dari bentuk-bentuk Senam Pernafasan Pembinaan yang dilakukan. Pola Senam Pernafasan Pembinaan berbeda dengan Senam Pernafasan Pengolahan, di dalam Senam Pernafasan Pembinaan ini hanya dilakukan penahan nafas di dada saja, sedangkan cara buang dan penarikan nafas sama dengan yang dilakukan pada Senam Pernafasan Pengolahan. Setiap selesai Senam Pernafasan Pengolahan selalu dilanjutkan dengan Senam Pernafasan Pembinaan, dengan maksud agar tenaga yag baru saja dibangkitkan dapat langsung diaktifkan. Sedangkan Senam Pernafasan Pembinaan dapat dilakukan tanpa Senam Pernafasan Pengolahan terlebih dahulu, tentunya sesuai dengan tujuan latihannya seperti hanya memelihara keberadaan tenaga agar siap difungsikan setiap saat atau ditujukan untuk lebih memperlancar atau terbukanya tenaga tersalur. Setiap materi Senam Pernafasan Pengolahan maupun Senam Pernafasan Pembinaan, memiliki bentuk senam dan lintasan gerak yang berbeda dan konsentrasi menjadi kunci pokok dari berhasilnya senam pernafasan untuk menghasilkan tenaga yang diharapkan (maksimal), konsentrasi tersebut di antaranya:</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">1. Konsentrasi pada bentuk</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Setiap bentuk senam pernafasan memiliki tujuan khusus bagi bagian organ tubuh maupun otot tertentu. Baik tidaknya suatu bentuk akan turut menentukan baik tidaknya laju tenaga untuk mencapai bagian organ tubuh (lokasi) yang dikehendaki. misal untuk bentuk dasar tangan harus dikepal dengan erat dan keras sehingga tidak ada lagi kekosongan diantara kepalan jari tangan ketika memulai kekejangan, begitu juga dengan bentuk kaki harus dipacul (ditekuk ke dalam) untuk melatih kekejangan pada kaki dan tungkai-tungkainya sampai pada pinggul.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">2. Konsentrasi pada kekejangan</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Di mana kekejangan (kontraksi) dilakukan pada otot tertentu pada otot tertentu, maka disanalah tenaga tersebut dihimpun, dengan kata lain tenaga yang disalurkan akan berakhir pada otot yang dikejangkan dan semakin kuat otot dikejangkan berarti semakin cepat oksigen (O 2) yang ada berkurang atau habis, dan selanjutnya berubah menjadi tenaga (biokimia yang menjadi sumber tenaga lainnya setelah oksigen habis/ATP). Sumber tenaga kedua itulah yang digunakan sebagai tenaga untuk melakukan gerakan eksplosif guna mematahkan/menghancurkan/menahan benda keras ataupun untuk keperluan lainnya. Dalam setiap latihan harus selalu</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">diingatkan agar kekejangan ini terus dipertahankan, kadangkala baru setengah jalan dalam satu bentuk pengolahan nafas kekejangan telah hilang sehingga hasil maksimal dari latihan tidak diperoleh.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">3. Konsentrasi pada pola nafas</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Pola nafas sudah jelas merupakan aspek yang tidak dapat dikecilkan artinya, karena pola nafas ini sangat menentukan hasil dari latihan dari fungsi senam pernafasan yang dilakukan. Melatih ketiga konsentrasi tersebut secara bersamaan bukanlah sesuatu yang mudah oleh karenanya ada suatu metode sederhana guna membantu melatihnya yaitu dengan cara : Konsentrasilah dahulu latihan pada bentuk senamnya dengan tanpa melakukan pengejangan dan pola nafas. Setelah seluruh bentuk senamnya dilakukan dengan benar, dapat dilanjutkan dengan melatih kekejangan. Tentunya dengan terlebih dahulu mengetahui otot-otot mana saja dari setiap bentuk senam yang dilaksanakan menjadi porsi yang utama. Bila pengetahuan ini telah dipahami maka akan membantu pada arah konsentrasi otot mana yang harus mendapatkan prioritas mengejang. Kedua latihan tersebut (bentuk dan kekejangan) belum menggunakan pola nafas, masih menggunakan nafas biasa (normal). Setelah kedua konsentrasi itu benar-benar dikuasai dengan baik, latihan dapat berlanjut pada berlatih konsentrasi pada pernafasan. Setelah melaksanakan latihan pengolahan dan pembinaan dilanjutkan dengan latihan konsentrasi dan penyaluran. Latihan konsentrasi ditujukan untuk melatih agar organ-organ tubuh dapat bekerjasama menuruti kemauan otak. Dalam latihan ini indikatornya adalah rasa. Organ-organ tubuh dilatih untuk merasakan signal-signal biologis yang diterima dan menyalurkan getaran-getaran energi ke seluruh anggota tubuh yang dikehendaki untuk digunakan sebagai energi keluaran untuk memukul/ meredam serang dari luar, sehingga akhirnya bila di tahapan latihan pertama (konsentrasi dan penyaluran) dimulai dari seluruh tubuh walaupun nanti pemukulan/serangan hanya mengenai bagian tubuh tertentu, tetapi pada tahap ini penyiapan hanya dilakukan pada bagian tubuh tertentu saja. Latihan berikut yang tidak kalah pentingya atau bagian yang paling penting yaitu latihan meditasi untuk menciptakan kondisi penyatuan dengan alam semesta. Bila pada tahap pertama dan kedua merupakan penggalian potensi dari dalam diri sepenuhnya, maka pada tahap ketiga ini sudah dilaksanakan suatu kondisi menyatu dengan alam semesta. Latihan ini mengandung dua aspek yaitu aspek penyerapan getaran energi alam dan aspek penyatuan sistem energi tubuh dan alam. Dengan melakukan penyerapan ini akan membantu tubuh memiliki kemampuan terhadap pemukulan atau bila diserang, sehingga tingkat kemampuannya lebih tinggi dari hasil yang diperoleh dari latihan tahap pertama dan tahap kedua. Di Mepati Putih, senam pernafasan diberikan sesuai dengan jenjang dan waktu lain dari peserta latihan. Masing-masing tingkatan mendapatkan materi dan beban latihan yang berbeda, demikian pula alat bantu yang digunakan. Semakin lama seseorang berlatih senam pernafasan maka semakin besar beban latihan yang akan diterimanya. Dengan latihan beban dan tekanan latihan yang terus meningkat dan terus bertambah berat akan berdampak pada kemampuan kejiwaan dan percaya diri dalam menghadapi tekanan ataupun mengurangi rasa sakit Alat bantu yang digunakan sesuai jenjang tingkatan seseorang adalah: seikat bambu raut, 2 (dua) buah bata press, 2 (dua ) buah pot 15 cm, 1(satu) buah pot 30 cm, halter 14 kg, halter beban tengah 14 kg, 2 gondewa (busur) panjang sekitar 160 cm, dan peralatan lain.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Menahan Serangan dengan Hasil Latihan</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Kemampuan anggota badan atau bagian tubuh tertentu untuk tahan terhadap pukulan ataupun tumbukan dari benda lainnya, merupakan salah satu wujud dari hasil latihan pernafasan yang mengarah pada kemampuan tubuh untuk meredam pukulan ataupun tendangan yaitu dengan cara :</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Sikap badan</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">- kaki dibuka lebar dengan telapak kaki sejajar, kedua lutut ditekuk.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">- kedua tangan disimpan di samping pinggang dengan mengepal padat sehingga berbentuk kuda-kuda tengah sedang.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Cara Pernafasan</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">- Setelah kuda-kuda tengah sedang disiapkan dengan benar maka konsentrasi terhadap bentuk dan kekejangan seluruh otot sudah di mulai.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">- Mengeluarkan nafas dengan cara berdesis dari mulut (hembuskan nafas sampai habis) dengan perut dikempiskan, tahan sebentar, kemudian menarik nafas dari hidung (menarik nafas sebanyak-banyaknya dengan menggunakan bagian tengah dan atas paruparu, perut tetap kempis dan rongga dada diisi penuh dengan oksigen sehingga dada membusung.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">- Setelah oksigen ada di posisi dada selama lebih kurang lima detik, sekat rongga badan (difragma) tahan ke bawah sehingga posisi nafas ada pada perut. Pada proses ini konsentrasi terhadap nafas sudah berlangsung. Lamanya nafas di perut adalah sama yaitu lebih kurang lima detik. Kemudian posisi nafas kembalikan ke atas, tetapi bukan ke dada melainkan konsentrasi pada rongga badan.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">- Setelah posisi nafas ada di sekat rongga badan, demikian pula konsentrasi kekejangan dipusatkan di diafragma tersebut, bersama dengan semakin kuatnya kekejangan, kedua tangan yang mengepal dibuka secara perlahan-lahan sehingga membentuk telapak tangan terbuka dan menekuk ke bawah, selanjutnya didorong ke depan dengan sedikit mengarah turun ke bawah dan tangan membentuk silang di depan (tangan kanan di atas)</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">- Saat tangan mengejang di depan, pengejangan terus dilakukan dan konsentrasi pada bagian yang akan menjadi sasaran.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">- Bila pukulan sudah selesai maka posisi nafas kembalikan ke dada, dan buang kembali dengan berdesis, dengan kekejangan tetap dipertahankan.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">- Setelah selesai membuang nafas, kendurkan kekejangan secara perlahanlahan.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Bentuk latihan ini adalah salah satu dari bentuk-bentuk latihan lainnya, jadi untuk mendapatkan kemampuan yang maksimal haruslah dilakukan bentuk latihan lainnya. Yang penting ketika melakukan kekejangan salah satu otot maupun antar sendi seakanakan bersatu menjadi satu kesatuan, tentunya dengan konsentrasi pada kekejangan, otot, dan pernafasan.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Pemukulan Benda Keras</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Ada beberapa faktor yang menentukan dalam pematahan benda keras (batang pompa, kikir, beton, dan sebagainya). Pertama adalah faktor benda yaitu ukuran, bentuk, elastisitas, dan ambang kerapatan gaya dari sasaran. Kedua adalah faktor pemukul, dalam hal ini adalah tangan manusia. Lebih rinci lagi bila tangan dibagi atas berat, kecepatan, dan kekakuan/kekuatan otot. Melalui latihan yang terencana, teratur, dan terarah seperti aerobik dan anaerobik dengan metode pengolahan dan pembinaan serta latihan fisik lainnya otot akan terlatih menjadi cepat, kuat dan liat. Apabila melakukan pemukulan/ pemecahan/pematahan akan lebih banyak menghasilkan lebih banyak gaya mekanis dan mengurangi kerugian akibat perubahan bentuk pada saat terjadi tumbukan. Untuk meningkatkan kemampuan teknik mematahkan benda keras harus dikembangkan teknik-teknik yang dapat mengurangi kerugian akibat perubahan bentuk tangan.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Begitulah hidup sehat dengan reiki bersama teman-teman seperguruan PPS Merpati Putih melakukan latihan olah nafas. Memang capai sekali latihan yang menguras tenaga ini tapi manfaat ke depannya adalah mendapatkan kelenturan otot, kepekaan tubuh karena ada getaran energi yang keluar dari tubuh serta disipin dalam latihan akan membuat kita tidak mudah patah semangat dalam hidup ini.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Seiring berjalannya waktu latihan mulai masuk ke Indonesia teknik penyembuhan Reiki tepatnya di tahun 1996. Apabila kita sebagai praktisi tenaga dalam ( PPS Merpati Putih) sudah mahir menguasai teknik pernafasan dengan mudah pula menyerap teknik Reiki. Sebab tubuh energi yang sudah terbentuk di kala menjadi Praktisi PPS Merpati Putih akan mudah pula menyerap Energi Reiki melalui penyelarasan/inisiasi.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Merpati Putih adalah Perguruan Pencak Silat yang ilmiah, tidak ada mantra dan klenik. Semua realitas dan logis. Kemampuan pesilat Merpati Putih mematahkan benda-benda keras seperti kikir, baja, gagang pompa, pipa beton, dsb. didapat dari zat yang disebut Adenose Triposphat (ATP).</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Setiap saat kita melakukan suatu kegiatan yang tidak kita sadari yaitu bernapas. Menghirup napas bisa dikatakan sebagai usaha membersihkan paru-paru. Peristiwa pernapasan melibatkan oksigen (zat asam), sehingga terjadilah peristiwa kimiawi yang disebut oksidasi dan menimbulkan panas atau energi.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Dalam teori listrik, kekurangan satu elektron dari satu atom akan menimbulkan gaya listrik. Ketika kita menghirup napas yang kemudian ditahan, akan terjadi pula kekurangan zat asam. Pada saat berlangsung kekurangan ini, timbul suatu zat baru yang sangat aktif untuk membantu mempercepat pengulangan peristiwa kimiawi tadi. Zat ini dikenal sebagai Adenose Triposphat atau disingkat ATP. Tenaga yang ditimbulkan ATP ini adalah 5 kali tenaga yang dihasilkan oleh peristiwa oksidasi itu sendiri.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Untuk mendapatkan ATP diperlukan syarat-syarat, seperti penegangan otot, kemudian digabungkan dengan kemampuan psikis dan biologis. Kalau proses oksidasi terus berulang dengan cepat maka akan timbul getaran. Getaran bisa ditingkatkan frequensinya bila kita mengenal ciri-cirinya.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Teknik getaran inilah yang dimanfaatkan Merpati Putih untuk memecahkan benda-benda keras seperti balok es, batang pompa dragon, beton cor, kikir atau per mobil.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Dengan mengirim getaran lewat tangan, kaki atau kepala akan mempengaruhi susunan molekul pada benda yang akan dipatahkan. Pada saat molekul pada garis yang kita jadikan sasaran itu berada dalam keadaan labil, maka sasaran itu kita hantam. Jadi yang terpenting disini bukan kekuatan tetapi momentum pukulan.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Dengan alat yang disebut osciloscope telah berhasil dideteksi lima macam getaran yang ada pada murid Merpati Putih.

Dengan latihan tertentu, seorang tunanetra bahkan mampu “melihat” seperti halnya orang biasa.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Suatu hari di tahun 1945 seorang pria bernama Kuda Bux menunggangi sepeda, lalu mengayuhnya, menembus lalu lintas New York. Ia menerobos Times Square yang ramai, dan akhirnya tiba di tempat tujuan, tanpa celaka sedikit pun. Tampaknya, itu peristiwa biasa. Namun ternyata ia melakukannya dengan mata tertutup rapat. Bagaimana ia bisa “melihat” arah tujuannya? Pertanyaan yang tetap belum ditemukan jawabannya itulah yang membuat Bux terkenal pada 1930 – 1940-an.Jauh sebelum itu ilmuwan Irlandia Robert Boyle (1627 – 1691) menemukan kasus tentang seorang pria yang dapat mengenali warna lewat sentuhan tangannya. Kemudian pada tahun 1893 beberapa dokter di Brooklyn, New York, menceritakan bagaimana Mollie Fancher yang tunanetra membaca buku cetak standar – bukan berhuruf braille – dengan ujung jarinya.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Pada saat bersamaan di Italia ahli saraf dr. Cesare Lombroso mengamati gadis tunatera berusia 14 tahun yang dapat “melihat” dengan telinga kiri dan ujung hidung. Ketika Lombroso mencoba menusuk hidungnya dengan sebatang pinsil, gadis itu tersentak menyingkir dan menangis, “Kamu ingin membuatku buta, ya?”</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>Orang abnormal </b></span></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Kasus-kasus ajaib itu menantang ilmuwan Prancis, Jules Romains. Setelah bertahun-tahun meneliti, pada 1920 Romains menerbitkan risalah panjang berjudul Eyeless Sight. Ia mencatat, beberapa subjek “melihat” tanpa menjalin kontak dengan objek sasaran, tapi ada juga yang menggunakan alat berupa ujung jari, pipi, bahkan perut. Meski karyanya itu sedikit sekali ditanggapi oleh kalangan kedokteran, kasus yang lalu ia sebut kemampuan pandang paroptik atau setingkat dengan mata itu beberapa kali menjadi berita utama.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Perhatian kalangan ilmiah terhadap fenomena itu baru muncul setelah tahun 1963, ketika peneliti kesehatan Rusia melaporkan kasus Rosa Kuleshova. Dalam beberapa penelitian yang diawasi ketat, Rosa yang benar-benar tidak dapat melihat dapat membaca koran dan catatan lagu dengan ujung jari dan siku tangannya.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Penelitian terhadap Rosa membangkitkan minat dr. Richard P. Youtz, psikolog di Columbia University, New York City. Saking penasaran, ia melakukan sendiri beberapa tes. Kesimpulannya, Rosa dan yang lainnya adalah orang yang sensitif abnormal terhadap jumlah panas yang diserap oleh warna yang berbeda.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Membaca tanpa mata bisa dilakukan karena cetakan hitam menyerap lebih banyak panas dan terasa lebih hangat dibandingkan sekelilingnya yang putih, yang lebih efisien dalam memantulkan panas. Pertimbangan itu masuk akal untuk orang yang dapat “melihat” dengan ujung jari atau siku. Tetapi bagaimana dengan fenomena Kuda Bux yang dapat melihat benda tanpa menyentuhnya?</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Bagi Budi Santoso Hadi Poernomo, pewaris dan guru besar PPS Betako Merpati Putih, fenomena seperti itu mudah dijelaskan menggunakan “ilmu getaran”. Ilmu yang mulai dikembangkan sejak 1970-an – 1987 ini sebenarnya metode pembinaan latihan pernapasan. Menurut generasi ke-11 dari Pangeran Prabu Amangkurat dari Kerajaan Mataram pada abad XVII di Kartosuro, Jawa Tengah, yang menciptakan betako Merpati Putih ini, dengan ilmu getaran seseorang akan mampu menangkap berbagai macam getaran dari benda apa pun, bahkan yang tidak tertangkap oleh kelima indera fisik. Misalnya, getaran otak atau makhluk halus.</div><div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">Manfaat ilmu itu ialah untuk mendapatkan tenaga yang lebih kuat, terutama saat melaksanakan tugas yang dianggap tidak mungkin dilakukan dalam keadaan biasa. “Misalnya, dengan mata tertutup dan konsentrasi orang mampu menebak benda yang tersembunyi, atau menembak sasaran dengan tepat dari jarak jauh,” ujar Budi yang bersama kakaknya, Poerwoto Hadi Poernomo, mendirikan PPS Betako Merpati Putih pada 2 April 1963 di Yogyakarta.</div>Fahd Thoricky and Fuad Cahaya Rimbahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06050145835795989943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1667212858435769741.post-12453984657810511502010-05-01T09:20:00.006+07:002010-06-26T08:13:44.929+07:00White Dove or White Pigeon Silat Style King Brawijaya University / Perguruan Pencak Silat Merpati Putih Universitas Brawijaya<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOcmvdcHak-dPZp2857Dea8elgP0rQ_tn63XLq-5r3Ve_mPG6v_ZfCJaAuff3-auotBGCrjYnGtR2BXkp_PjlU6MFCPKrf4DLQ8eT80_N4HV3hPeS2460VSd3qj6fxjprpx9xYHy4fmnU/s1600/Merpati_Putih.gif"><img style="float: right; margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; cursor: pointer; width: 205px; height: 256px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOcmvdcHak-dPZp2857Dea8elgP0rQ_tn63XLq-5r3Ve_mPG6v_ZfCJaAuff3-auotBGCrjYnGtR2BXkp_PjlU6MFCPKrf4DLQ8eT80_N4HV3hPeS2460VSd3qj6fxjprpx9xYHy4fmnU/s400/Merpati_Putih.gif" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5466125745523719714" border="0" /></a><span style=";font-family:";font-size:10pt;" ><b><span style="font-size:100%;">SORRY NO ENGLISH VERSION AVAILABLE FOR THIS POST</span><br /><br /></b></span><span style=";font-family:arial;font-size:100%;" ><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">PROFIL UNIT KEGIATAN MAHASISWA PERGURUAN PENCAK SILAT BELADIRI TANGAN KOSONG MERPATI PUTIH UNIVERSITAS BRAWIJAYA</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"> Bermula dari minat sekelompok mahasiswa Unibraw untuk berlatih beladiri khususnya Pencak Silat yang berada di bawah naungan Unibraw.

Berdasarkan pengelolaan kawasan konservasi, Cagar Alam Sempu termasuk ke dalam wilayah kerja Sub-Seksi Konservasi Sumber Daya Alam Malang. Kawasan ini memiliki banyak potensi alam yang indah dan menarik minat banyak wisatawan asing maupun domestik.

Pantainya di penuhi oleh beberapa wisatawan dan kapal-kapal nelayan terparkir di sepanjang pantai. Secara umum jika hanya pantai kecil ini sebagai obyek wisata sendang biru, maka bisa di anggap kurang memadai, jika di jual untuk pemandangan alamnya. Tetapi dari sini kita bisa menuju ke TPI (Tempat Pelelangan Ikan), atau naik kapal bermotor menyusuri selat kecil, atau naik sampan kecil yang didayung sendiri, dan tentunya adalah untuk transit menuju Pulau Sempu. </span></p><span style=";font-family:arial;font-size:100%;" ><br /><br />Berikut ini beberapa link ke situs Merpati Putih yang lain :</span> <ul style="font-family:arial;"><li><span style="font-size:100%;"><a href="http://www.merpatiputih.tk/" onclick="window.open('http://www.merpatiputih.tk/','link_mp'); return false">Kolat Unibraw</a> <span class="quote_about">(unofficial site)</span></span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;"><a href="http://id.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merpati_putih" onclick="window.open('http://id.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merpati_putih','link_mp'); return false">Artikel Wikipedia tentang Merpati Putih</a></span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;"><a href="http://www.geocities.com/hotsprings/4829/main.html" onclick="window.open('http://www.geocities.com/hotsprings/4829/main.html','link_mp'); return false">Cabang Bogor</a></span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;"><a href="http://www.geocities.com/Baja/Trails/1230/mpsolo.html" onclick="window.open('http://www.geocities.com/Baja/Trails/1230/mpsolo.html','link_mp'); return false">Cabang Solo</a></span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;"><a href="http://www.geocities.com/mp_uii/" onclick="window.open('http://www.geocities.com/mp_uii/','link_mp'); return false">Kolat UII</a></span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;"><a href="http://members.tripod.com/mpliapramuka/" onclick="window.open('http://members.tripod.com/mpliapramuka/','link_mp'); return false">Kolat LIA Pramuka</a></span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;"><a href="http://www.merpatiputihunsoed.4t.com/" onclick="window.open('http://www.merpatiputihunsoed.4t.com/','link_mp'); return false">Kolat Unsoed</a></span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;"><a href="http://www.mpselatan.com/" onclick="window.open('http://www.mpselatan.com/','link_mp'); return false">Cabang Jakarta Selatan</a></span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;"><a href="http://www.mpsleman.org/" onclick="window.open('http://www.mpsleman.org/','link_mp'); return false">Cabang Sleman</a></span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;"><a href="http://www.members.tripod.com/mpgranadi/index.htm" onclick="window.open('http://www.members.tripod.com/mpgranadi/index.htm','link_mp'); return false">Kolat Granadi</a></span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;"><a href="http://www.merpatiputih.eu/" onclick="window.open('http://www.merpatiputih.eu/','link_mp'); return false">Cabang Belanda</a></span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;"><a href="http://mpsalatiga.8m.com/" onclick="window.open('http://mpsalatiga.8m.com/','link_mp'); return false">Cabang Salatiga</a></span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;"><a href="http://www.mpitenas.com/" onclick="window.open('http://www.mpitenas.com/','link_mp'); return false">Kolat Itenas</a></span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;"><a href="http://www.mp-usa.org/" onclick="window.open('http://www.mp-usa.org/','link_mp'); return false">MP Salt Lake City</a></span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;"><a href="http://mpusa.50megs.com/" onclick="window.open('http://mpusa.50megs.com/','link_mp'); return false">USA</a></span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;"><a href="http://merpatiusa.com/" onclick="window.open('http://merpatiusa.com/','link_mp'); return false">USA</a></span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;"><a href="http://mpkalsel.wordpress.com/" onclick="window.open('http://mpkalsel.wordpress.com/','link_mp'); return false">MP Kalimantan Selatan</a><br /></span></li></ul>Fahd Thoricky and Fuad Cahaya Rimbahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06050145835795989943noreply@blogger.com
