Tumburu

Arjuna arrives at the gates of Amaravati, the divine city of Indra, and sees the grove of Nandana — a place forbidden to the sinful, the mean, and those who have abandoned sacred rites. As he advances along the starry path known as suravithi, the celestial beings rise to welcome him.

With Arjuna seated beside Indra, the celestial court stirs to life. Led by Tumburu, the gandharvas begin to sing and chant, and a host of apsaras — Ghritachi, Menaka, Rambha, Urvashi, and many others — rise to dance, moving in ways that steal the mind and the intelligence of even the perfected beings watching.
