Wurare Inscription
The Wurare Inscription, in Indonesian ''Prasasti Wurare'', is an inscription commemorating the coronation of the statue Mahaksobhya in a place called Wurare. The inscription is written in Sanskrit, dated November 21, 1289 CE.〔H. Kern, ''De Sanskrit-inscriptie van het Mahaksobhya-beeld te Simpang (stad Surabaya, 1211 Saka)'' VG, VII, 1917, pg. 187-189.〕 The statue is a tribute and a symbol for Kertanegara, king of Singhasari kingdom, which was considered by his descendants to have achieved the degree of Jina (Great Buddha). The inscriptions are written circulary on the pedestal base of the Buddha statue.
The inscription consists of 19 verses, which among others tells a story of a powerful priest named Arrya Bharad, who divided Java into two kingdoms named Janggala and Pangjalu, using magic water from his water pot. The act was done to avoid a civil war between two princes who wanted to fight for power.〔Wurare Inscription, verse 3 to 6.〕〔Poesponegoro, Marwati Djoened, Nugroho Notosusanto. ''(Sejarah nasional Indonesia II: Zaman kuno )'', 2nd ed. (updated edition), Jakarta, Balai Pustaka, 2008. Accessed February 24, 2012.〕
The statue was originally found in Kandang Gajak area. Kandang Gajak is in the vicinity of Trowulan, Mojokerto Regency, East Java, Indonesia. In 1817, the statue was moved to Surabaya by a Dutch East Indies officer, Resident Baron AM Th. de Salis, and it is currently placed in the Apsari Park, near downtown Surabaya, East Java.〔''(Wisata Religi: j.
