Principles of Manunggalism

The principles of Manunggalism is scientific system of thought in how to view the World Relations through Eastern World Paradigm by using the core philosophical of Manunggalism belong to Indonesian School and linked with the initiating of the grand theory in understanding of the world order namely “Eastern World Relations Theory (WRT)”. The principles of Manunggalism is the political idea system to understand the World Relations and going together in supporting “Eastern World Relations Theory (WRT)” to be implemented in organizing the world phenomenon.

Following are seven main theories and concepts in understanding the World Relations which are derived from the Grand Theory of Manunggalims as the principles of Manunggalism: (1)Adimanusiawi, (2)Geometrism, (3)Permusyawaratan, (4)Kemanunggalan, (5)Haryamatra, (6)Adibumi, and  (7)Manupolitika. The following is the description of each principal value as the concepts:

(1). Adimanusiawi: “Man is an Obedient Creature”

Manunggal human nature, namely:

(1) basically that “man obey (manut), singel (manunggal), and gotong-royong (mutual cooperations)”, owner of the most obedient nature of all the characteristics of God’s creatures; directly proportional to its nature, then humans live in harmony “gotong-royong” form the closest group and develop in a more harmonious direction (bahu-membahu);

(2) man basically need materials in the form of eating, drinking, reproduction; In addition, humans also need something immaterial in the form of an instinct to lead and/or be led, domination, safety, happiness, prosperity, control over something outside themselves and their group according to the representative;

(3) to meet the needs of their group, man need interaction tools in the form of symbols, language, science, and technology; when the interactions that are created are peaceful then the group tends to “expand” to grow larger, but if the interactions that are created are contradictory then the group experiences “shrinkage” (penyusutan);

(4) to achieve a commensurate interaction, man need distance, space, speed, acceleration, and time that effectively creates a good and maximum area “mapping” for the group;

(5) in the end humans believe that the relationship between groups in a field and region is dynamic, so the resulting philosophy will also continue to develop, while the field is always constant;

(6) This thinking encourages the birth of prosperous man: that is a Manunggal man with Superhuman character (Adimanusiawi).

(2). Geometrism: “Man is Geometrical Creatures”

Thinking geometrically is that the space for human movement as a Manunggal has the right to utilize all of the eight dimensions of the world’s strategic environmental areas. Use it with consideration:

(1) humans are mathematical beings who think systematically. He needs material, space, and mass including time to think about what to do. On the other hand, he also needs something immaterial in the form of a desire to lead and be led. The world leadership is divided into four regional zones namely Positive Vertical Geometripolitics vis-à-vis Negative Vertical Geometripolitics, also Positive Horizontal Geometripolitics  vis-à-vis Negative Horizontal Geometripolitics;

(2) Based on this systematic thinking, humans divide the leadership zone into two phases, namely Eastern and Western leadership. These two regions have their own characteristics according to the regional leaders, in which the leadership rotation lasted for seven centuries (700 years). This is because the earth is spherical (360 degrees), so every change must change its ideological system;

(3) every time a leadership rotation occurs, someone leads and is led;

(4) the economic system being developed is the World-National Economic System (Sistem Ekonomi Kebangsaan) which is based on the Values ​​of World Manunggality;

(5) the peace system that is adopted is Manunggal Peace System;

(6) there is a fence of Geometripolitics between sets of spaces for man movement depicted in the World Vessel (Bejana Dunia);

(7) every space and time has an end goal, in this case every perspective has an end goal, and when that goal has been achieved, that perspective goes extinct and is replaced by another perspective in the period after that perspective was born. However, line-judge of the world “Manunggalistiwa” will continue to be present in every age as a wall in separating East and West domination. This comes one after another as a manifestation of the earth’s surface which is round and continuously rotating.

(3). Permusyawaratan: “Man Lives in the Truth of the World”

Thinking in a Permusyawaratan (Deliberative) manner is that Manunggalism in building the world order applies the principles of kinship, open discussion, dialogue, mutual cooperation, open minded, and consensus to achieve unanimity, role modeling, and wisdom of thinking by prioritizing the interests of the world-nations in order to achieve Manunggalism of world leadership.

Permusyawaratan symbolizes system of gotong-royong where to carry out all the levels above, a “World Institutions” (Pranata Dunia) is needed to secure the world in the 21^st to 28^th centuries, and so on. If there are no Permusyawaratan values ​​due to the absence of a “World Institutions, a situation that is not harmonious or leads to an atmosphere of war is created.”

(4). Kemanunggalan: “Man lives in Gotong Royong, Unity and Harmony”

Thinking in Manunggalism means being united in building a world order applying the values ​​of gotong royong, unity and harmony to maintain world peace. Thinking in Manunggalism means that the world needs a “World Institution” in the form of the highest institution of World Harmony or World Concordism (Kerukunan Dunia). In order to build a “World Relations”, Manunggalism adheres to the Eastern “World Institutions (Pranata Dunia) Timur.”

(5). Haryamatra: “Man Lives In Great Prosperity”

Thinking in a Haryamatra way means that Manunggal World strives to always “pursue great prosperity in all dimensions”. Therefore, Haryamatra has several basic goals as its human nature, including:

(1) the goal of humans is to lead (memimpin), not to rule (menguasai). Leading other humans is not controlling other humans according to their quadrant abilities;

(2) the purpose of humans is to be led not controlled. Led by one leader, not controlled by a single ruler, namely the quadrant that led in that period;

(3) the requirement to become a leader in the quadrant is determined by the ability of the region after fulfilling the four main qualities;

(4) the alliance is the world’s mutual assistance that is gathered from a group of people from quadrants I, II, III, and IV by removing their Geometripolitical fences;

(5) every human being is obliged to recognize his own quadrant and then determine who is in charge. His reference point is every seven centuries;

(6) humans are mathematical beings who always follow their closest world civilizations group: the Manunggal and Atlantikal. Each set gives the opportunity to lead and be led according to the distance period. Each period has characteristics and has equilibrium points, mutually in accordance with the provisions contained in the Life Cycle Diagram (Diagram Kehidupan) and World Vessels (Bejana Dunia).

(6). Adibumi: “Adibumi is a Manunggal Government System”

Relating to a shape Adibumi Manunggal System, Manunggalism introduce the period when Indonesia, along with other Manunggal world-nations, continued to actively carry out world development with a system of government “Adibumi Manunggal” through a distinctive thought and teaching of Manupolitics Theory (Laksapatik, Rencapatik, Adilapatik, Jagapatik, and Nasihapatik).

“The Adibumi Manunggal System is a leadership from the man homeland and its geometrical environment, by the man homeland and its geometrical environment, and for the man homeland and its geometrical environment.”

Thus, the Manunggal Government System is: (1) Adibumi is the system of world government of Manunggal world. Thus, the development of the Adibumi throughout the world must continue, while the government has not yet been led by a world-nation other than a Manunggal system in addition to the Adibumi system, it must get supervision within the limits of wisdom;

(2) It is the duty of Manunggal World-nations to fix the group of world-states to submit and obey the system of the Manunggal World-nations as in the past the respect and obedience shown by the Manunggal World-nations to the Atlantical World-states allowed the [democratic] system to be propagated throughout the Enlightenment era (Fukuyama, 1992). It is now taking turns leading the world by propagating [divine] values ​​throughout the era of purification (Manunggalian).

(7). Manupolitika: “Power System Controlled by Five Power Institutions”

Manupolitics means “the five parts that are adhered to”. The Manupolitics consist of from “Manut” from the Javanese language means obedient, and “Patika” taken from the ancient Egyptian language (Sepat) and Java (Patih) means “leadership in which there is ultimate wisdom”. The meaning of Manupolitik can be explained, namely:

(1) first, Rencapatik is the drafting body of law and power. This means that in the Adibumi government system, every government is obliged to make laws and powers based on the natural conditions of the earth, the human homeland and its geometrical environment, if it is not in accordance with the geometrical environment, the policy cannot be applied;

(2) second, Laksapatik is the body for executing law and power. This means that every policy that has been planned and formulated by the Rencapatik will become an obligation to be fulfilled;

(3) third, Adilapatik is the body that tries all abuses of law and power from Laksapatik. This means that if in an Adibumi government something goes wrong, then based on overall considerations, Lakasapatik can be punished by Adilapatik in justice court;

(4) fourth, Jagapatik is the guardian body for the performance of the three institutions held by the Higher Education of University Society. Jagapatik’s function is to oversee the running of the government in coordination with the Nasihapatik agency;

(5) fifth, Nasihapatik, namely the advisory body for the Adibumi Manunggal government system. Advice held by the philosophers of the world-nations. In relation to the Manunggal Era, an Adibumi Manunggal government system must be supported by Adibumiawan and Adibumiawati in balancing the gender system in building the World Relations.

Finally, in Eastern World Relations Theory (WRT), Manunggalization is that the world is going to united “maunggalized” by the value of Adibumi (adimanusiawi and musyawarah), haryamatra (keagungan), gotong royong, geometrism (horizontalized, verticalized, and diagonalized as the rule of power distribution in society), security, harmony (concordism “kerukunan”), and prosperity as the value of the Manunggality of the World (Nilai-Nilai Kemanunggalan Dunia).
