The Temptation of Arjuna: Arjuna Wiwaha's story (The Marriage of Arjuna), based on a brief side story from the Hindu Mahabharata epic, was written during the 11th century in East Java. A noble hero named Arjuna seeks divine help to defeat his enemies. The deities send beautiful Widyadari (heavenly nymphs) to tempt him.
Arjuna remains undisturbed during this and other tests, thus proving his sincerity. He is rewarded with a magical weapon and marries the heavenly nymphs.
