Abstract

Abstract: In ancient time Arjuna was one of the Wayang Purwa’s dramatic characters that were loved by a greater part of Javanese people. The selection of this character was based on his attitude, behavior, and profile, which was appropriate as a model. Setting Arjuna a model may be seen in his role when he interacts with other characters in his position as a son, student, head of a family, brother, friend, and as a member of world society. Arjuna’s role in each of those positions is interconnected and integrative in establishing the main Arjuna’s role as a Brahim knight. As a Wisnu’s avatar, Arjuna’s role is to preserve peace, order and world balance. In performing his role, Arjuna observes the motto ‘sticking on pure heart under the umbrella of true spirit’. I order to follow this motto ; he always bears heneng (prudence), hening ( calm), hawas ( careful ), lane ling ( remember ) so that his action is always on the just and right tract, which is illuminated by the light of holly spirit.
