Have you ever ride Andong?. If not, come to Yogyakarta. This four-wheeled trains now exist only in the city.
But, you should not touch, let alone ride the train that always located in front of a souvenir shop and craft goods, in across Beringharjo market.
This train has located since many years in front of the store and not be enclosed, there is never dare to touch let alone climbed, for example, brought home.
Not an electricity fence or something that causes you not able to touch the train that is normally withdrawn by horse. may be a sentence and anglo pedupaan (place offerings and myrrh).
The objects of beside there anglo censer, by the Java community is always promising, will not be touched. Items that can only be approached or touched people and a certain period of time. And the animistic beliefs that inspire shop owners (and train) write "This train may be ride at a certain time." And finally the object is worth millions of rupiah never lost despite never locked.

Not just moving objects behind the screen. But a shadow from object which to move, that is called puppet show. Besides Javanese people, puppet just called dolls, miniature human beings. If there are, Java community call marionette puppet.

Only a thin object that is made from cow or goat skin that is usually called a puppet. Moreover, carved figures certain. Especially the figures of the Ramayana and Mahabharata stories, which stems from India.

A man called dalang will move thin objects behind the screen. And the light light fuel oil with coconut illuminate from the top of dalang.

Coconut oil fuel lead to flare-beam lights to expand and not expand, and durable. Effect shadow occasional expand and once panting generated light that is usually called blencong, is core leather puppet show.

Puppet tells about of human life. Not just human beings as a biological, but also psychological beings.

Human not just flesh and blood. He is a creature that has the emotional development and soul. And a puppet is shadow of human beings Occasional expand, occasionally not expand. It is not static beings.

When the puppet play began with an electric light, the puppet has lost human being shadow. He has been a dolls, who have not a clue that occasionally expand occasionally not expand.

This is the portrait irregularities humanity. Human being are not more psychological. But just flesh and blood which can move. Creatures without a soul.
