Anjani - (Dewi) - Arjuna Sasra Bahu
Anjani receives a jar with magical powers from her mother, from which she can make anything she wishes appear. When her brothers, Sugriwa and Subali, discover this, there is a fierce fight about it.
Foster father Gotama don't like the fighting and throws the jar far away into the forest. Where the pot lands, a lake is created. All three of them run after the potty and Sugriwa and Subali, who are the first to arrive at the lake, dive into the water to look for the potty.
When Dewi Anjani arrived at the lake, she does not expect to get her hands on the jar. She refreshes her hands and face with the water from the lake. When her brothers emerge from the water, they are hairy and turned into monkeys. Anjani is shocked to see that her hands have also changed and when she looks into the water, she also sees her changed face, the rest of her body is unchanged.
