One event at another time is when the daughter of Kuripan gives a red lotus to the prince. The event is the embryo of the birth of dance Baksa Kembang in Banjar province of South Kalimantan.

This dance was created one day with other Baksa dance, such as Baksa Dadap, Baksa Lilin, Baksa Panah and also Baksa Tameng in Hindu era before Islam came.
