SMAN1 GIRIMARTO BERSILATURAHIM KE SMA MUH 1 KARANGANYAR

Dilaporkan Voice of Maron Oleh MasKatnoGiri

VOICE OF MARON.Silaturahim memanjangkan umur dan menambahkan rejeki, itulah kata bijak dan inti dari hikmah   yang disampaikan oleh salah satu penasihat spiritual SMA Muh1 Kra. “Benar  memang setelah saya lapar ternyata ada makanan, ini terjadi  karena saya silaturahim” begitulah beliau menambahkan.

Sesuai rencana,  Kamis, 14-06-2012  di pagi hari  yang cerah rombongan guru, karyawan berserta pengurus komite SMAN 1 Karanganyar  tiba di SMA Muh 1 Karanganyar dengan jalan darat  yang berliku. Tidak tanggung-tanggung tiga bis yang dikawal sederetan sepeda motor nampak seperti mau jagong ke rumah pejabat.

Rombongan   dari  sekolah yang berlokasi di desa tersebut, tak terlihat seperti dari desa. Mereka seperti dari kota dengan seragam batik dari butik terkenal. Sambutan yang hangat dari SMA Muh 1 cukup menggetarkan juga, karena diiringi musik campur saru eh campur sari. Musik ini juga menjadi favorit bapak dan ibu guru SMA Maron atau sebutan SMANGGI.

“Barang siapa beriman kepada Allah dan rasulnya hormatilah tamumu” Itulah kata bijak yang disampaikan di tengah-tengah pertemuan dua sekolah yang mau bangkit di dunia pendidikan khususnya di kar. Surakarta.

SINOPSIS MASKATNOGIRI CALON NOVEL

Lucu sekali, itulah kesan dalam benakku. Hidupku penuh kelucuan kadang  sering tanpa rencana.  Demikian juga pengalamanku ketika aku tak terbayangkan sebelumnya bisa kuliah di UNS jur. Bahasa Inggris. Tidak satupun dari anggota keluargaku maupun ortuku tahu bahwa aku mendaftar di UNS jurusan b Inggris.Karena aku memang bukan dari keluarga yang banyak tahu tentang dunia pendidikan. Ortuku  petani, sedangkan saudara2 ku (ada 8 orang) tidak satupun yang kuliah. Hanya saudaraku paling tua bernasib beda dari  tukang kebun sekolah,lalu jadi TU berlanjut jadi Guru SMP.
                Harapan ortuku sederhana saja, maksudnya jadi umumnya laki-laiki seperti tetanggaku merantau jadi pedagang  atau apalah yang penting tidak tinggal di desa yang tidak bisa menjanjikan kehidupan yang layak. Dari semua pemuda di desa seangkatanku hanya aku yang ke kota untuk  kerja dan sekolah.
                Tepatnya setelah lulus dari SMPNI Baturetno tahun 1986, aku ke Solo mengikuti jejak kakakku. Beberapa pekerjaan sudah pernah kujalani dari menjadi kuli sambil kursus reparasi barang2 elektronik, lalu menjadi karyawan  pengusaha Cina  jadi teknisi. Karena ingin mandiri, kuputuskan menjadi pengusaha kaki lima Susu Segar Roti bakar depan SMPN 5 Surakarta. Tak terbayangkan  menjadi pedagang susu segar  terlalu berat, aku sering pulang lebih dr tengah malam. Tubuhku sudah kecil semakin kecil. Sunnguh beraaaaaaaaaat. Sering  sekali sudah larut malam susu tidak habis, ada juga pemuda nakal mau makan tapi tak bayar..pokoknya pengalaman mengerikan,  aku sering menangis dalam hati.
.........baru mimpi..... jadi pengusaha sudah beraaaaaaaaaaaaat.
                Tahun 1999 kuputuskan aku harus sekolah, kujual warung susu segar, aku mendaftar di SMAMTA Surakarta. Aku diterima, walau aku sudah berhenti beberapa tahun dan tidak pernah belajar. Alasan aku diterima di SMAMTA nilai UN SMPku bagus bahkan aku masuk 5 besar, itu nilai murni 100% .Ooh ya semasa aku di SMP, aku belum pernah sekalipun curang dalam mencari nilai.......

KISAH HIDUP MASKATNO GIRI AKAN DIFILMKAN

KISAH HIDUP MASKATNO GIRI AKAN DIFILMKAN
            Atas terbentuknya kelompok teater di SMAN 1 Girimarto, ide pembuatan film yang berdasar true story (kisah nyata) dari salah satu guru yakni MasKatno Giri menjadi perbincangan serius. Tepatnya di akhir sesi rapat dinas SMAN1 GirimartoSelasa 12 Juni 2012. Ingin tahu kenapa ada usulan kisah MasKatnoGiri layak difilmkan?
            Awalnya teater SMAN 1 Girimarto telah menghasilkan film singkat utuh yang telah berhasil ditayangkan di depan para siswa. Namun adegan-adegan dari film singkat tersebut mengundang kontroversi, maka dari hasil pemikiran yang mendalam dari salah satu Wakasek BpDrs. Anto Prasetyo, dimunculkan ide kenapa film yang berdasar kisah nyata tidak dijadikan proyek teater SMA kita. Beliau menambahkan bahwa MasKatnoGiri memiliki kisah yang unik, menarik dan bisa mencerahkan. Tidak tanggung-tanggung beliau akan mengajukan proposal untuk pengucuran dana sampai terbentuk film utuh.
            Kalau menurut MasKatnoGiri sendiri, bahwa kisahnya hanya layak untuk memotivasi anak-anaknya. Dia juga ragu apakah kisah hidupnya mampu memberi makna hidup untuk orang banyak. Barangkali menurut P. Anto bahwa MasKatnoGiri itu orang luar biasa, padahal menurut dia sendiri dia biasa di luar dan biasa di dalam. Maksudnya dia dianggap orang tangguh, karena sejak remaja sudah biasa hidup mandiri tanpa mudah minta-minta ke saudara maupun ortunya. Dia dianggap mampu melampaui masa sulit dengan kerja keras, seperti sebagai pekerja cleaning servis di depo stasiun Balapan (ngguyang sepur), jual dan loper koran, penjual susu segar dan dia mampu sekolah S1 sampai S2 dengan biaya sendiri, bahkan dari SMA pun sudah sambil kerja. Beliau menambahkan bahwa ada kisah-kisah unik ketika MasKatnoGiri mulai kuliah di FKIP b. Inggris UNS, juga menjadi guru privat b. Inggris lebih dari 10 th.dll.Dan dia pernah menjadi Branch Manager Kursus Bahasa Inggris di Solo.
            Namun menurut MasKatnoGiri, dia sebenarnya tidak  kuat atau tangguh Cuma dikuat-kuatkan saja.Pak Anto mempertimbangkan bahwa MaskatnoGiri sudah berhasil atau istilahnya sukses kalau dibanding sebelumnya, karena sudah meningkat kariernya. MasKatnoGiri sebenarnya agak malu-malu, karena banyak orang lebih hebat dan lebih sukses darinya bahkan lebih layak hidup dibanding dirinya.
            Namun entahlah, kini dia diberi tugas membuat sipnosis tentang kisah hidupnya namun  dia masih aras-arasen, dan bingung mau memulai dari mana.

ARE WE EAGER TO HAVE SINCERITY?

Are we eager to have sincerity?

If our  answer YES, so we are going to have a happy life.

Sincerity of feeling, intent touches the hearts of everyone.

What exactly defines sincerity? And how do we achieve it? No other formula exists for sincerity than to be sincere by being genuine, having faith and trust in our self.

 According to my teacher teacher, there are many ways to achieve sincerity, they are as follows:

Doing or acting the same way alone as we do when in the presence of others. This is the real  and this is the person that people will and trust That is not only hard work but is ultimately insincere.

Doing  things out of the goodness of our heart; don't seek a reward or do things to acquire things from people. When we give without expecting the boomerang effect to occur, the giving becomes an act of sincerity and an expression of  our  genuine concern for and interest in others.

Understanding  that sincerity comes from the heart. Whatever we do or say, it is vital to mean to do or say it and to back it up with  our beliefs. We cannot be sincere when we compliment someone but deep inside we detest or hate him or her.

Realizing that sincerity can expose us. Opening up to others about  our feelings, motives and aspirations can cause some people to react in insincere ways and to try and drag us down.

Using  positive affirmations. Always seek the goodness  in us, in others, in situations. When negative connotations arise, use  our positive affirmations to override the negatives and to try to find the silver lining in any situation. Sincerity thrives on effort to think the right way.

Be hospitable in any situations and lack material neediness. Sincerity is advanced when we are open to having others in  our life and when we do not feel a need to compare ourself with what others have and what we do not. Material neediness destroys the ability to be sincere because our focus is always on protecting our possessions and aiming to accumulate more instead of looking outwards into the human community around us  and perceiving the ways in which we can add substance to it through the goodness of our heart.

Apakah kita ingin memiliki ketulusan?

Apakah kita ingin memiliki ketulusan?
Jika jawabannya YA,  maka  kita akan memiliki kehidupan yang bahagia.
Ketulusan perasaan, niat menyentuh hati semua orang.
Apakah definisi  ketulusan? Dan bagaimana kita mencapainya? Tidak ada rumus lain untuk  mencapai ketulusan,  kecuali  memiliki iman Kepada Allah s.w.t . dan kepercayaan dalam diri kita.

Bagaimana upaya kita meraih ketulusan?

Menurut ustadz saya ada beberapa cara mencapai tulus / ikhlas antara lain:
1. Melakukan atau bertindak dengan cara yang sama saja seperti yang kita lakukan ketika  sendirian atau di hadapan orang lain. Ini adalah nyata dan ini adalah orang yang bisa dipercaya .

2. Melakukan hal-hal dari kebaikan hati kita, jangan mencari hadiah atau melakukan hal-hal untuk mendapatkan sesuatu dari orang. Mestinya kita memberi tanpa mengharapkan efek bumerang terjadi, Pemberian menjadi tindakan ketulusan dan ekspresi perhatian yang tulus untuk kepentingan orang lain.
3. Memahami  bahwa ketulusan datang dari hati.. Kita tidak bisa tulus ketika kita memuji seseorang tetapi jauh di dalam kita benci atau membenci dia.
4. Menggunakan afirmasi positif.  Kita seharusny selalu mencari kebaikan dalam diri kita, pada orang lain, dalam situasi. Ketika konotasi negatif muncul, menggunakan afirmasi positif kita untuk menimpa negatif dan mencoba untuk menemukan sisi positif  dalam situasi apapun. Ketulusan berkembang pada upaya untuk berpikir dengan cara yang benar atau  positif.
5. Menjadi ramah dalam berbagai situasi . Ketulusan adalah usaha menjadi terbuka dalam menghadapi berbagai jenis manusia maupun  ketika kita tidak merasa perlu untuk membandingkan diri kita dengan apa yang orang lain.

BECOME  A QUALIFIED PEOPLE WITH THE SINCERE OF INTENTION (IKHLAS)
(Summarized from many sources by MasKatno Giri)
All praise is due to Allah, and may peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah, and upon his family and his companions.
With regard to the matter of sincere intention, it seems that some people are confused with regard to certain aspects. Therefore, I just sugest me by writing the following points, and all success is from Allah:
1. Firstly, the correct intention is one of two conditions for every act of worship to be accepted, along with the action being in accordance to the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah. The proof for this principle can be found in Allah’s statement: “So whoever hopes for the meeting with his Lord (Allah) – let him do righteous work and not associate anyone in the worship of his Lord.” [Al-Kahf 18:110].
2. Secondly, the essence of the correct intention is for an action to be sincerely for the sake of Allah, and not to contain any form of shirk, or giving some of Allah’s rights to someone or something else. Fadl bin Ziyaad said, “I asked Abu Abdullah (i.e., Imaam Ahmad) about the intention in action, how should it be? He said, ‘One should treat his self when he intends to do an action, not desiring by it the people (RIYA”).
3. Thirdly, intention is something that needs to be constantly reviewed and worked upon. Sufyaan ath-Thawree said, “I have not battled with anything more difficult than my intention.”
4. Fourthly, the fact that another person is the cause for some of our good deeds, or that they call us to guidance, or that they encourage us to do something which we were not intending to do, does not affect our intention. This is part of the foundation of da’wah and calling people to guidance. The Prophet – may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him – used to encourage some of the companions to do actions that they were not intending to do, and he encouraged others to do the same. The Prophet – may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him – said, “Whoever calls to guidance has the reward of it and the reward of everyone who acts upon it, until the Day of Resurrection (hari kebangkitan), without their reward being decreased in any way.” So if a brother comes to you and says, ‘come to the masjid’, and you were not intending to come, but because of him calling you to guidance, you decide to come, and you make your worship for the sake of Allah alone, then your intention is correct, if Allah wills, and the fact that another brother called you to do something that you had not planned to do does not affect our intention.
Similarly, if your intention was not pure, and then you realise that we have been showing off in some of our deeds, then we correct them and seek Allah’s forgiveness, then your intention returns to being correct, and if you do so before we complete the action (such as before we finish praying), then we do not lose the reward of the entire prayer.
5. Fifthly, showing off is a form of minor shirk (kelalaian) and is extremely serious, but it is equally serious to not perform good deeds out of fear of showing off. Al Fudayl bin ‘Iyaad considered it another form of riyaa’. Rather you should say, ‘O Allah, I seek refuge with you from making partners with you while I realise, and I ask your forgiveness for what I do not realise.’ Leaving that which Allah has ordered you out of fear of what people may say can even reach the level of major shirk, so do not allow the shaytaan to open a door to your destruction!
A person’s Islam is not accepted by Allah until it is sincere – this is one of the conditions of laa ilaaha ill Allah, but as Muslims we are commanded to treat them as normal Muslims, since the matter of intention is left to Allah. In general, we shouldn’t rush to encourage a person who is not sincere. This does not benefit Islam and the Muslims, and the person themselves may be harmed.
However, we may see someone who has some fault in their intention, and we believe that there is a good chance that the person will be corrected, based on their environment and their character. First of all we should try to correct their intention before they become Muslim. In the example of marriage, we try to make the marriage secondary to pleasing Allah. If we believe that they will change, then we may accept their Islam. However, if the person who they are marrying is not even practising Islam, then it is unlikely that they will see the beauty of Islam, when the person they are marrying does not even see it. So, I think that we should be very careful in some of these cases.
6. Sixthly, a person may enter Islam for the sake of the dunyaa, or with a fault in their intention and then correct his or her intention, as Imaan enters their hearts, and so become from the true Muslims. This was the case of some of the companions, especially those who became Muslim after the conquest of Makkah. Some of them became Muslim for worldly reasons, but the sun did not set before Allah and His Messenger were more beloved to them than the earth and whatever was in it. This does not mean that we should encourage people to become Muslim who do not want to, however, we have not been asked to rule based on the hearts of the people, and it is possible for people to change once they see the beauty of Islam.
7. Finally, do not succumb to the whispers of shaytaan, that when a person calls you to do something good you say, ‘my intention is not right’ – this is nothing but the whisperings of the shayaateen, may Allah protect me and you from them. Rather embrace this good deed and make it sincere for Allah without showing off. This way you will get the reward for your action, as will the person who called you to do good. At the very least be honest and say, ‘I am too lazy to do it’, rather than inventing a religious excuse that Allah has given you no authority for; perhaps Allah will open your heart to the truth because of your honesty.
Don’t forget that intention alone is not enough for your deeds to be accepted. They must also be in accordance with the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah – may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him. ‘Aa’ishah – may Allah be pleased with her – narrated that the Prophet – may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him – said, “Whoever does an action that is not in accordance with my affair [i.e., my sunnah] then it is rejected.”
May Allah grant us all beneficial knowledge and the ability to act upon it, and save us from the whisperings of the shaytaan
