Sri Rama and Dewi Shinta
In the Ramayana classical story, Shinta was Rama's wife. She was kidnapped and locked up by Rahwana, a gigantic king.
She was released by her husband with the help of Hanuman, the white monkey.
To prove that she was still a virgin, Rama granted her request to burn herself, but the fire did not harm her, hence proving her innocence.
Sri Rama is a symbol of a loving husband, and Dewi Shinta is a symbol of faithfulness and honor.
